Put a post in Hive’s queue for a future time, with every composer option. Your AI asks you before this runs; with Hive approvals on, Hive asks again inside Hive, because it will be published publicly. Hive checks every target network before it writes anything, so a post a network would reject is refused here instead of failing later.

This reaches real people, so the person is asked before it runs. Their own AI client asks them. When the connection was made with Hive approvals switched on, the first call returns a single-use Hive approval link instead of acting, and the exact request is repeated with approvalToken and an Idempotency-Key once they approve it inside Hive.
