Can Beagle send an email without approval?

Not by default. Outbound actions are drafted and held for a nod. Within a single conversation you can choose to approve every use of a tool or wave Beagle through entirely, and that choice expires with the conversation.

Do approvals persist across conversations?

No. Approve-the-tool and wave-through last only for the conversation where you granted them. Every new conversation starts at ask-first.

What counts as an outbound action?

Anything that leaves the granted boundary: emails, client-facing replies, posts, and writes to connected tools that others will see. Reading connected data and drafting privately do not require approval.

Beagle never speaks for a person without a human in the loop. Any action that touches the outside world - sending an email, replying to a client, changing a record in a connected tool - is drafted first and held for approval. Approval is the default, not an option you switch on.

What waits for approval#

Anything outbound. Reading and drafting happen freely inside the boundary you granted; the moment an action would leave it - a send, a post, a write to a connected tool that others will see - Beagle asks first, in the thread, with the draft attached.

The three choices#

When Beagle asks, you can answer at three levels:

Approve once. This action, this time. Beagle asks again for the next one.
Approve the tool. Every use of that tool for the rest of the conversation - useful when a job needs a dozen writes to the same place.
Wave it through. Beagle stops asking for the rest of the conversation entirely.

Every choice is scoped to the conversation it was made in. A new conversation starts back at the default: ask first.

Why it works this way#

The approval line is what makes it safe to give an AI real access. Beagle can read broadly and draft ambitiously precisely because nothing it produces reaches a client, a customer, or a connected system without a person owning the send. Judgement and accountability stay human; the drafting stops being human work.
