How AI approval works

AI agents in DevSphere OS prepare drafts and suggestions, but meaningful actions are approved by a human. AI acts within the same permissions as the user it assists.

#When to use this

Read this to understand the boundaries of AI actions and how approvals protect your business.

#Step by step

1

AI prepares work

An agent drafts a message, plan, or change.
2

A person reviews

You review the AI's output in the approval or draft view.
3

You approve or reject

Approve to proceed, or reject and revise.
4

The action proceeds only on approval

Nothing significant happens without your sign-off.

#Expected result

What you should see

AI speeds up work while humans stay in control of what actually happens.

#Common mistakes

  • Approving AI output without reading it.
  • Assuming AI acts beyond the user's permissions — it does not.

#Troubleshooting

If this happensTry this

#Best practices

  • Always review before approving.
  • Keep approvals required for sensitive actions.
