Put the decision in a typed Signal payload (approver, decision, comments, timestamp) instead of a bare boolean\n2. Always wait with a timeout and treat the timeout path as a rejection or an escalation on purpose\n3. Use the workflow ID as the approval ID, so the reviewer's tool only needs one value to send the Signal\n4. Use an Update instead of a Signal when the approver's tool needs an acknowledgement back\n5. Expect `ResourceExhausted` under load and let the SDK retry it, since signals are throttled last\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.
