Confirmation (human in the loop)
Section titled “Confirmation (human in the loop)”The handler asks for confirmation only when a call crosses a boundary (for example an overwrite, a folder-boundary crossing or a bulk-cost floor); other calls need none.
- The confirmation binds to the vault paths the call names, which are also checked against the folder ACL.
