# Resume or stop a chat turn paused by a large-edit continue prompt.

`POST /v1/chat/{session_id}/continue`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.superdocs.app`
- URL: `https://api.superdocs.app/v1/chat/{session_id}/continue`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Used with chat_async when a large edit paused to ask whether to keep going.
Poll get_job until status=awaiting_approval AND metadata.awaiting_kind='continue_prompt';
then POST here with continue=true to resume (the AI picks up where it left off with a
fresh time/step budget) or continue=false to stop (everything applied so far is kept).
The job then resumes/finishes and reaches status=completed. This is NOT the change-
approval endpoint (that is approve_change) — it can only act on a continue-prompt pause.
