AI agent approval requests need clear structure for human review

    <p>A reader left a comment on the approval queue post: should the request carry a short justification inline, or just link to the trace? Short answer: both, but they do different jobs, and they should never be mixed together in one block of text. Here is how we lay it out.</p> <h…
