One variation of a method for facilitating integration of user input and autonomous operations of a robotic system includes: storing a set of constraints of the robotic system; storing a model of an environment in which the robotic system is to operate; determining whether the robotic system can successfully perform operations specified by a user based on the constraints of the robotic system and the model of the environment; and, in response to determining that the robotic system cannot successfully perform the operations, modifying the operations so that the modified operations can be performed by the robotic system; and generating a set of commands for the robotic system based on the modified operations.
