LoopCraft adds human-in-the-loop approval nodes for gated agent actions (2026-08-21)
Any loop can now pause at an approval node and wait for a human decision — approve, reject, or edit the pending output — with the decision recorded in the trace and a configurable timeout deciding what happens while you are away.
← Back to NewsStarting 2026-08-21, LoopCraft ships approval nodes for human-in-the-loop workflows. Not every step in an agent loop should run unattended: sending an email to a customer, publishing a page, or spending from a budget deserves a human look. Drop an approval node anywhere in a loop, and the run pauses there with the pending output assembled.
The reviewer sees exactly what they need to decide and nothing more: the pending payload, the loop's summary of how it got there, and three actions — approve, reject, or edit the output before approving. An edited output re-enters the loop as the node's result, so a human fix flows downstream instead of restarting the run. Decisions are recorded in the trace with the reviewer, the timestamp, and any edits, sitting beside the iteration cap and cost budget events you already inspect.
Timeouts make waiting safe: choose between failing the run, skipping the step, or auto-approving low-risk actions after a set period, per node. Notifications go out by email or webhook the moment a run reaches an approval gate, and one workspace can queue approvals from many loops in a single review inbox. Approval nodes are available on all plans. Try them at https://getloopcraft.com. Feedback: sapsap@qq.com.
