Expert5 capabilities+
- Approve the quote under a price cap
Approve the current quote so the human expert starts work — the ONLY operation that charges the Tendem account. It re-reads the live quote and approves only when it is at or under Max Price; anything else returns the quote as data with nothing charged. Call this only after a human or workflow policy has accepted a "quote" outcome.
- Check a delegated task and advance it
Poll a delegated task until it needs something, and say what as data: a scoping question from Tendem (outcome "question"), a quote to decide on (outcome "quote"), or the finished result. Never spends money. Call this after delegating, and again whenever the outcome is "pending".
- Delegate work to a human expert
Create a Tendem task for a vetted human expert from a plain-language request, optionally attaching input files. Nothing is charged: Tendem scopes the work and quotes a price first. Returns the task_id every later call needs. Call this exactly once per piece of work.
- Reply to the expert service and continue
Answer Tendem's scoping question (from a "question" outcome), then keep advancing the task in the same call. Use the task_id from this conversation.
- Wait for the verified result
Block until the verified result is ready and return it: markdown plus downloadable file URLs. Never spends money. Outcome "pending" means the work is still running — call again with the same task_id.

Could I keep a workflow read-only?
For a read-only workflow, limit account permissions to reading data and exclude actions that create, update, or delete records.
Will every action run automatically?
Choose which steps could run on their own and which should pause for review. Changes should follow the permissions and approval rules you set.
Do I need to review actions in Tendem?
