Human Approval & Editorial Governance

Content creation workflows adhere to strict editorial policies:

• Draft Only (Recommended): The agent creates posts strictly with status: "draft" or status: "pending". Human editors review, polish, and publish from WordPress admin.

• Direct Publish: If authorized, the agent can publish immediately or schedule posts for specific publication times.
