Approval Workflow Skill

This skill implements the Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) approval system that ensures human oversight for sensitive autonomous actions.

Core Concept

The approval workflow uses folder-based state management:

/Pending_Approval/  →  Human reviews  →  /Approved/  →  Execute
                                    →  /Rejected/  →  Archive

Approval Request Format

---
type: approval_request
action: [action_type]
created: [ISO timestamp]
expires: [ISO timestamp]
status: pending
priority: [critical|high|medium|low]
requestor: [agent_name]
risk_level: [low|medium|high]
reversible: [true|false]
---

## Action Summary
[Brief description of what will happen]

## Details
[Full action parameters]

## Risk Assessment
- **Reversible**: [Yes|No|Partial]
- **Impact**: [Description]
- **Sensitive Data**: [Yes|No]

## Instructions
- **Approve**: Move to `/Approved/`
- **Reject**: Move to `/Rejected/`
- **Edit**: Modify, then approve

Approval Thresholds

Action Type	Auto-Approve	Human Required
Email (known contact)	Reply only	New recipients
Payment	< $50 recurring	New payee, > $100
Social post	Scheduled	Immediate, replies
File operations	Create/read	Delete
WhatsApp	Greetings	Business msgs

Workflow States

pending - Awaiting human decision
approved - Cleared for execution
rejected - Denied by human
expired - Timed out without decision
executed - Action completed
failed - Execution error
