# Agent Approval • AI Agent SDK

> AgentApproval: Delegates approval decisions to another AI agent.

# AgentApproval

> Defined in the [**backends**](../modules/backends) module.

<Badge color="blue">AI Agent</Badge>

Delegates approval decisions to another AI agent.

The approver agent receives a structured prompt describing the tool call
and responds with `APPROVE` or `DENY`.  This enables autonomous
multi-agent approval workflows without human intervention.

Lives in the core SDK because it only depends on the Agent class which
is already in core — no external dependencies.
