Hi,
In the Honorverse books the transition between systems using
wormholes is done maually in so much as you still have someone on
the bridge doing the equivilent of flicking a switch in change
the configuration of the sails.
However, I can't see any reason why this can't be fully automated,
especially given the Star Empire's increasing shortage of trained
staff. I could also see an automated shuttle based on a courier
that could be used for transmitting high priority communications
through the wormhole.
