-Agents sometimes require the same [human-in-the-loop](https://mastra.ai/docs/workflows/human-in-the-loop) oversight used in workflows when calling tools that handle sensitive operations, like deleting resources or performing running long processes. With agent approval you can suspend a tool call and provide feedback to the user, or approve or decline a tool call based on targeted application conditions.
+Agents sometimes require the same [human-in-the-loop](https://mastra.ai/docs/workflows/human-in-the-loop) oversight used in workflows when calling tools that handle sensitive operations, like deleting resources or running long processes. With agent approval you can suspend a tool call before it executes so a human can approve or decline it, or let tools suspend themselves to request additional context from the user.
 
-## Tool call approval
+## When to use agent approval
 
-Tool call approval can be enabled at the agent level and apply to every tool the agent uses, or at the tool level providing more granular control over individual tool calls.
+- **Destructive or irreversible actions** such as deleting records, sending emails, or processing payments.
+- **Cost-heavy operations** like calling expensive third-party APIs where you want to verify arguments first.
+- **Conditional confirmation** where a tool starts executing and then discovers it needs the user to confirm or supply extra data before finishing.
 
-### Storage
+## Quickstart
 
-Agent approval uses a snapshot to capture the state of the request. Ensure you've enabled a storage provider in your main Mastra instance. If storage isn't enabled you'll see an error relating to snapshot not found.
+Mark a tool with `requireApproval: true`, then check for the `tool-call-approval` chunk in the stream to approve or decline:
 
 ```typescript
-import { Mastra } from "@mastra/core/mastra";
-import { LibSQLStore } from "@mastra/libsql";
-
-export const mastra = new Mastra({
-  storage: new LibSQLStore({
-    id: "mastra-storage",
-    url: ":memory:"
-  })
-});
-```
+import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
+import { createTool } from '@mastra/core/tools'
+import { z } from 'zod'
+
+const deleteTool = createTool({
+  id: 'delete-record',
+  description: 'Delete a record by ID',
+  inputSchema: z.object({ id: z.string() }),
+  outputSchema: z.object({ deleted: z.boolean() }),
+  requireApproval: true,
+  execute: async ({ id }) => {
+    await db.delete(id)
+    return { deleted: true }
+  },
+})
 
-## Agent-level approval
+const agent = new Agent({
+  id: 'my-agent',
+  name: 'My Agent',
+  model: 'openai/gpt-5-mini',
+  tools: { deleteTool },
+})
 
-When calling an agent using `.stream()` set `requireToolApproval` to `true` which will prevent the agent from calling any of the tools defined in its configuration.
+const stream = await agent.stream('Delete record abc-123')
 
-```typescript
-const stream = await agent.stream("What's the weather in London?", {
-  requireToolApproval: true
-});
+for await (const chunk of stream.fullStream) {
+  if (chunk.type === 'tool-call-approval') {
+    const approved = await agent.approveToolCall({ runId: stream.runId })
+    for await (const c of approved.textStream) process.stdout.write(c)
+  }
+}
 ```
 
-### Approving tool calls
+> **Note:** Agent approval uses snapshots to capture request state. Configure a [storage provider](https://mastra.ai/docs/memory/storage) on your Mastra instance or you'll see a "snapshot not found" error.
 
-To approve a tool call, access `approveToolCall` from the `agent`, passing in the `runId` of the stream. This will let the agent know its now OK to call its tools.
+## How approval works
 
-```typescript
-const handleApproval = async () => {
-  const approvedStream = await agent.approveToolCall({ runId: stream.runId });
+Mastra offers two distinct mechanisms for pausing tool calls: **pre-execution approval** and **runtime suspension**.
 
-  for await (const chunk of approvedStream.textStream) {
-    process.stdout.write(chunk);
-  }
-  process.stdout.write("\n");
-};
-```
+### Pre-execution approval
+
+Pre-execution approval pauses a tool call _before_ its `execute` function runs. The LLM still decides which tool to call and provides arguments, but `execute` doesn't run until you explicitly approve.
+
+Two flags control this, combined with OR logic. If _either_ is `true`, the call pauses:
 
-### Declining tool calls
+| Flag                        | Where to set it                   | Scope                                       |
+| --------------------------- | --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
+| `requireToolApproval: true` | `stream()` / `generate()` options | Pauses **every** tool call for that request |
+| `requireApproval: true`     | `createTool()` definition         | Pauses calls to **that specific tool**      |
 
-To decline a tool call, access the `declineToolCall` from the `agent`. You will see the streamed response from the agent, but it won't call its tools.
+The stream emits a `tool-call-approval` chunk containing the `toolCallId`, `toolName`, and `args`. Call `approveToolCall()` or `declineToolCall()` with the stream's `runId` to continue:
 
 ```typescript
-const handleDecline = async () => {
-  const declinedStream = await agent.declineToolCall({ runId: stream.runId });
+const stream = await agent.stream("What's the weather in London?", {
+  requireToolApproval: true,
+})
+
+for await (const chunk of stream.fullStream) {
+  if (chunk.type === 'tool-call-approval') {
+    console.log('Tool:', chunk.payload.toolName)
+    console.log('Args:', chunk.payload.args)
+
+    // Approve
+    const approved = await agent.approveToolCall({ runId: stream.runId })
+    for await (const c of approved.textStream) process.stdout.write(c)
 
-  for await (const chunk of declinedStream.textStream) {
-    process.stdout.write(chunk);
+    // Or decline
+    const declined = await agent.declineToolCall({ runId: stream.runId })
+    for await (const c of declined.textStream) process.stdout.write(c)
   }
-  process.stdout.write("\n");
-};
+}
 ```
 
-## Tool approval with generate()
-
-Tool approval also works with the `generate()` method for non-streaming use cases. When using `generate()` with `requireToolApproval: true`, the method returns immediately when a tool requires approval instead of executing it.
+### Runtime suspension with `suspend()`
 
-### How it works
+A tool can also pause _during_ its `execute` function by calling `suspend()`. This is useful when the tool starts running and then discovers it needs additional user input or confirmation before it can finish.
 
-When a tool requires approval during a `generate()` call, the response includes:
+The stream emits a `tool-call-suspended` chunk with a custom payload defined by the tool's `suspendSchema`. You resume by calling `resumeStream()` with data matching the tool's `resumeSchema`.
 
-- `finishReason: 'suspended'` - indicates the agent is waiting for approval
-- `suspendPayload` - contains tool call details (`toolCallId`, `toolName`, `args`)
-- `runId` - needed to approve or decline the tool call
+> **Note:** `suspend()` does not throw — return immediately after calling it (e.g. `return await suspend({ ... })`). Code after `await suspend(...)` still runs before the tool pauses.
 
-### Approving tool calls

-To approve a tool call with `generate()`, use the `approveToolCallGenerate` method:
+Tool approval also works with `generate()` for non-streaming use cases. When a tool requires approval, `generate()` returns immediately with `finishReason: 'suspended'`, a `suspendPayload` containing the tool call details (`toolCallId`, `toolName`, `args`), and a `runId`:
 
 ```typescript
-const output = await agent.generate("Find user John", {
+const output = await agent.generate('Find user John', {

     runId: output.runId,
     toolCallId: output.suspendPayload.toolCallId,
-  });

 ## Tool-level approval
 
-There are two types of tool call approval. The first uses `requireApproval`, which is a property on the tool definition, while `requireToolApproval` is a parameter passed to `agent.stream()`. The second uses `suspend` and lets the agent provide context or confirmation prompts so the user can decide whether the tool call should continue.
+Instead of pausing every tool call at the agent level, you can mark individual tools as requiring approval. This gives you granular control: only specific tools pause, while others execute immediately.
 
-### Tool approval using `requireToolApproval`
+### Approval using `requireApproval`
 
-In this approach, `requireApproval` is configured on the tool definition (shown below) rather than on the agent.
+Set `requireApproval: true` on a tool definition. The tool pauses before execution regardless of whether `requireToolApproval` is set on the agent:
 
 ```typescript
 export const testTool = createTool({
-  id: "test-tool",
-  description: "Fetches weather for a location",
+  id: 'test-tool',
+  description: 'Fetches weather for a location',
   inputSchema: z.object({
-    location: z.string()
+    location: z.string(),
   }),
   outputSchema: z.object({
-    weather: z.string()
+    weather: z.string(),
   }),
   resumeSchema: z.object({
-    approved: z.boolean()
+    approved: z.boolean(),
   }),
-  execute: async (inputData) => {
-    const response = await fetch(`https://wttr.in/${inputData.location}?format=3`);
-    const weather = await response.text();
+  execute: async inputData => {
+    const response = await fetch(`https://wttr.in/${inputData.location}?format=3`)
+    const weather = await response.text()
 
-    return { weather };
+    return { weather }
   },
-  requireApproval: true
-});
+  requireApproval: true,
+})
 ```
 
-When `requireApproval` is true for a tool, the stream will include chunks of type `tool-call-approval` to indicate that the call is paused. To continue the call, invoke `resumeStream` with the required `resumeSchema` and the `runId`.
+When `requireApproval` is `true`, the stream emits `tool-call-approval` chunks the same way agent-level approval does. Use `approveToolCall()` or `declineToolCall()` to continue:
 
 ```typescript
-const stream = await agent.stream("What's the weather in London?");
+const stream = await agent.stream("What's the weather in London?")
 
 for await (const chunk of stream.fullStream) {
-  if (chunk.type === "tool-call-approval") {
-    console.log("Approval required.");
+  if (chunk.type === 'tool-call-approval') {
+    console.log('Approval required for:', chunk.payload.toolName)
   }
 }
 
-const handleResume = async () => {
-  const resumedStream = await agent.resumeStream({ approved: true }, { runId: stream.runId });
+const handleApproval = async () => {
+  const approvedStream = await agent.approveToolCall({ runId: stream.runId })
 
-  for await (const chunk of resumedStream.textStream) {
-    process.stdout.write(chunk);
+  for await (const chunk of approvedStream.textStream) {
+    process.stdout.write(chunk)
   }
-  process.stdout.write("\n");
-};
+  process.stdout.write('\n')
+}
 ```
 
-### Tool approval using `suspend`
+### Approval using `suspend()`
 
-With this approach, neither the agent nor the tool uses `requireApproval`. Instead, the tool implementation calls `suspend` to pause execution and return context or confirmation prompts to the user.
+With this approach, neither the agent nor the tool uses `requireApproval`. Instead, the tool's `execute` function calls `suspend()` to pause at a specific point and return context or confirmation prompts to the user. This is useful when approval depends on runtime conditions rather than being unconditional.

-    weather: z.string()
+    weather: z.string(),
   }),
   resumeSchema: z.object({
-    approved: z.boolean()
+    approved: z.boolean(),
   }),
   suspendSchema: z.object({
-    reason: z.string()

   }),
   execute: async (inputData, context) => {
-    const { resumeData: { approved } = {}, suspend } = context?.agent ?? {};

     if (!approved) {
-      return suspend?.({ reason: "Approval required." });

-    return { weather };
-  }
-});
+    return { weather }
+  },
+})
 ```

 ## Automatic tool resumption
 
-When using tools that call `suspend()`, you can enable automatic resumption so the agent resumes suspended tools based on the user's next message. This creates a conversational flow where users provide the required information naturally, without your application needing to call `resumeStream()` explicitly.

 ```typescript

-});
+})
 ```
 
-### How it works
-
-When `autoResumeSuspendedTools` is enabled:
-
-1. A tool suspends execution by calling `suspend()` with a payload (e.g., requesting more information)
-
-2. The suspension is persisted to memory along with the conversation
-
-3. When the user sends their next message on the same thread, the agent:
-
-   - Detects the suspended tool from message history
-   - Extracts `resumeData` from the user's message based on the tool's `resumeSchema`
-   - Automatically resumes the tool with the extracted data
-
-### Example
+When enabled, the agent detects suspended tools from message history on the next user message, extracts `resumeData` based on the tool's `resumeSchema`, and automatically resumes the tool. The following example shows a complete conversational flow:

+## Tool approval: Supervisor agents
+
+A [supervisor agent](https://mastra.ai/docs/agents/supervisor-agents) coordinates multiple subagents using `.stream()` or `.generate()`. When a subagent calls a tool that requires approval, the request propagates up through the delegation chain and surfaces at the supervisor level:
+
+1. The supervisor delegates a task to a subagent.
+2. The subagent calls a tool that has `requireApproval: true` or uses `suspend()`.
+3. The approval request bubbles up to the supervisor.
+4. You approve or decline at the supervisor level.
+5. The decision propagates back down to the subagent.
+
+Tool approvals also propagate through multiple levels of delegation. If a supervisor delegates to subagent A, which delegates to subagent B that has a tool with `requireApproval: true`, the approval request still surfaces at the top-level supervisor.
+
+### Approve and decline in supervisor agents

+Tools can also use [`suspend()`](#approval-using-suspend) to pause execution and return context to the user. This approach works through the supervisor delegation chain the same way `requireApproval` does: the suspension surfaces at the supervisor level:
+
+```typescript
+const conditionalTool = createTool({
+  id: 'conditional-operation',
+  description: 'Performs an operation that may require confirmation',
+  inputSchema: z.object({
+    operation: z.string(),
+  }),
+  suspendSchema: z.object({
+    message: z.string(),
+  }),
+  resumeSchema: z.object({
+    confirmed: z.boolean(),
+  }),
+  execute: async (input, context) => {
+    const { resumeData } = context?.agent ?? {}
+
+    if (!resumeData?.confirmed) {
+      return context?.agent?.suspend({
+        message: `Confirm: ${input.operation}?`,
+      })
+    }
+
+    // Proceed with operation
+    return await performOperation(input.operation)
+  },
+})
+```
+
+```typescript
+// When using this tool through a subagent in supervisor agents
+for await (const chunk of stream.fullStream) {
+  if (chunk.type === 'tool-call-suspended') {
+    console.log('Tool suspended:', chunk.payload.suspendPayload.message)
+
+    // Resume with confirmation
+    const resumeStream = await supervisorAgent.resumeStream(
+      { confirmed: true },
+      { runId: stream.runId },
+    )
+
+    for await (const resumeChunk of resumeStream.textStream) {
+      process.stdout.write(resumeChunk)
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Supervisor approval with `generate()`
+
+Tool approval propagation also works with `generate()` in supervisor agents:
+
+```typescript
+const output = await supervisorAgent.generate('Find user with ID 12345', {
+  maxSteps: 10,
+})
+
+if (output.finishReason === 'suspended') {
+  console.log('Tool requires approval:', output.suspendPayload.toolName)
+
+  // Approve
+  const result = await supervisorAgent.approveToolCallGenerate({
+    runId: output.runId,
+    toolCallId: output.suspendPayload.toolCallId,
+  })
+
+  console.log('Final result:', result.text)
+}
+```
