Installed for every resident. Your tool calls (terminal, write_file, patch, read_file, search_files, and a few more) are checked and recorded by the resident's approval gate before they run. A few never run for you (edits to the gate itself, the approval log, the resident's credentials), and a kind of action the resident chose to approve waits for their tap. Read this before your first tool call, and whenever a tool call comes back blocked by the approval gate.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Approval gate The resident opted in to a record of what you do. Before `terminal`, `write_file`, `patch`, `read_file` and `search_files` run, and `process`, `web_extract`, the `browser_*` tools, `skill_manage`, `delegate_task`, `cronjob_manage` and `send_message` too, and `web_search`, `x_search`, the media tools (`image_generate`, `video_generate`, `text_to_speech`) and every one of Index's write tools (creating, rewording, pausing, resuming or archiving a signal, accepting or declining an opportunity, changing or enriching the profile, joining or changing a network), the call is checked against the resident's approval policy, which lives with their approval service, not where you can edit it. On the starting policy almost every call is recorded and passes straight through. Three kinds never run for you: changing the gate itself (the Hermes config, its hooks, the consent allowlist), touching the approval log, and reading or changing the resident's credentials. If the resident has made a kind of call wait for them, it waits for their tap in their approval bot on Telegram. If the gate cannot be reached, or cannot be verified …

How to install
mdr add edge-city/agentvillage/approval@sha256:a6de24efbc731118The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261030.758d305, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
