Report #84128

[frontier] Production agents make irreversible dangerous actions \(send email, delete db\) without human oversight or recovery

Implement LangGraph Interrupts: use 'interrupt' function in critical nodes to pause execution, serialize state to Postgres, and await human approval via API before continuing, with built-in timeout and rejection handling

Journey Context:
Simple 'human in the loop' often means stopping the whole process. LangGraph Interrupts treat approval as a first-class graph node: when hit, the thread enters 'interrupted' state, state is persisted, and a webhook fires. Human reviews diff via UI, approves/rejects. If approved, graph resumes exactly after interrupt node with human input as state update. This enables production guardrails without breaking declarative graph structure or losing context on crash, supporting both sync and async approval flows.
