The approval binds to plan_hash from the Launch Plan read and is refused when the plan changed; every open decision must be accepted. Only a person approves: a browser session, or a token whose scopes name ai_actions.approve. The approver must hold every approved action's permission, and the approval expires (one hour by default, at most 24). Requires applications.write.
