Call `get-form-schema` before `request-human-review-with-form`, since the field data must match the review type\n2. Send `agentId` on every API request, because the API reference marks it required even though the JS SDK doesn't\n3. Pass a `webhookUrl` per request when the review type has no default, or the answer has nowhere to go\n4. Deduplicate webhook calls on the `Idempotency-Key` header, since delivery is at least once\n5. Set your own deadline on the agent side and treat silence as a rejection\n\n### Trigger.dev\n\n1. Pass an explicit `timeout` to `wait.createToken()` and handle `ok: false` as a timeout\n2. Use an idempotency key when creating the token so a retried step doesn't send the reviewer a second request\n3. Give the browser the `publicAccessToken`, never the secret key, and don't call `token.url` from client code\n4. Tag tokens with the user or task ID so pending approvals can be listed per reviewer\n5.
