 "title": "Hand the companion a task and approve each step",
 "page_title": "How to hand the companion a task and approve each step with Apeireth",
 "summary": "Ask it to handle something for you, then approve or reject each side effect before it runs.",
 "who": "A busy person who wants the companion to act on routine tasks but needs a clear yes before anything changes files, messages, or money.",
 "problem": "Letting an assistant act on your files or accounts without a checkpoint is risky, and you need a record of what was approved.",
 "outcome": "Tasks run only after your explicit approval, with one approval covering exactly one side effect.",
 "steps": [
  "Open the companion desktop window and choose the quick action \"handle something for me\".",
  "Describe the task in plain words and send it.",
  "Read each approval card that appears and check the exact action before you approve it.",
  "If a task shows Failed, review it yourself, since the README says Failed is judged only by a human and is never auto-retried."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the Apeireth repo at <repo path>, check that a delegated task on <target machine> pauses at an approval card before any side effect. Expected output: a pending approval with no change made yet. Verify that the target file is unchanged until you approve.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Shell execution is refused by default outside Windows, and Linux and macOS get process limits only with no file or network isolation, so keep delegated tasks to Windows unless you accept that gap.",
