An agent framework with per-agent tool approval gates and agent-initiated questions to a human.

Where it sits

3.2 Agent harnesses (primary): Pauses an agent before the tools its owner lists under requireApproval run, and shows an approve or reject choice to a person.

You can require user approval before an agent executes sensitive tools, and agents can ask users questions when they need clarification.
