Report #50937

[architecture] Agent executes an irreversible high-stakes action based on an unverified plan without human approval

Classify tools and actions by risk level \(e.g., Read=Low, Write=Medium, Delete=High\). Configure the orchestrator to require a human approval gate \(interrupting execution\) before invoking any High-risk tool.

Journey Context:
Fully autonomous agents are dangerous in production. You need to break the execution graph. Using an interrupt mechanism \(like state machines that pause\) allows a human to inspect the proposed tool call. Tradeoff: reduces speed and autonomy, but prevents catastrophic data loss.
