# Inbox

> Approvals, clarifications, and reports — the Founder's queue.

The Inbox is where execution waits for the Founder. It surfaces approvals, clarification requests, reports, and alerts without forcing the Founder to read the full audit log.

## Item types

| Type       | When                                                     |
| ---------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| `approval` | A risky or destructive action is blocked until approved. |
| `report`   | An agent submitted a deliverable for review.             |
| `alert`    | The system flagged something (e.g. soft cap warning).    |
| `info`     | Informational only; no action required.                  |

## Status lifecycle

```txt theme={null}
unread · read · archived
```

## Actions

## Resolution

When the Founder resolves an Inbox item:

| Resolution           | Effect on the run                              |
| -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| Approve              | Continue from checkpoint.                      |
| Reject               | Cancel or trigger replanning.                  |
| Request change       | Create a follow-up planning step.              |
| Clarification answer | Inject the answer into run context and resume. |

See [Approval policy](/concepts/approval-policy) for the full categorization of what triggers approvals vs clarifications.
