Report #84992

[architecture] Autonomous agent chain executes irreversible or high-cost actions without human approval

Insert an interrupt checkpoint in the workflow graph immediately before any tool execution that mutates external state \(e.g., deployments, database deletes, financial transactions\).

Journey Context:
Fully autonomous multi-agent systems are highly efficient but lack the risk assessment of a human. A minor hallucination in an earlier agent can lead to catastrophic side effects if the executing agent is given free rein. Interrupting the graph before state mutation trades latency for safety, ensuring human oversight on critical paths without bottlenecking read-only operations.
