What team_manager_approve_plan does on Team Manager MCP
AI agents invoke team_manager_approve_plan to trigger actions in Team Manager MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why team_manager_approve_plan is rated High
This tool triggers a state transition that either approves execution of a multi-agent room (causing downstream agent orchestration to begin) or requests revisions. The act of 'starting the governed agent room' is an external operation that initiates potentially complex, cascading agent actions. This goes beyond a simple write, as it triggers execution of an agent pipeline.
