Confirmations

Irreversible steps wait for one tap with your passkey. Everything else runs without asking.

An agent that asks before every action is an agent nobody uses. So Rytiv sorts every action into two kinds:

  • Reversible: it can be undone. It runs right away.
  • Irreversible: it cannot be undone. It waits for you.

The planned list:

  • deleting a production database, volume or app,
  • DROP or TRUNCATE in production,
  • moving a domain,
  • sending mail to many real recipients,
  • going over your budget.
  1. Your agent asks for the step. Rytiv does not run it, it creates a confirmation request with a number, what will happen, and a preview link.
  2. You open the request and confirm it with your passkey, or reject it.
  3. Only then does the step run.

A confirmation can never be given with the agent’s own key. The approval comes from you, not from the conversation.
