Delegate approval to a teammate

If you’re not the only person who needs to be able to approve, add approval delegates. Each delegate receives an email magic-link for every pending approval and can decide without signing into the dashboard.

Available on Team and Enterprise plans.

How

/settings → Approval delegation card.

  • Add delegate — paste an email, click Add.
  • The email lands in the delegates list with a default role and an Active toggle.

Each delegate row:

  • Email address
  • Role (display only — they all have the same capability today)
  • Active toggle — flip off to pause delivery without removing the delegate
  • Remove (trash icon) — permanently remove

How delegation works for the recipient

When a pending approval is created, AgentValet:

  1. Notifies you (the owner) via Web Push immediately
  2. In parallel, generates a single-use magic-link JWT for each active delegate and emails it to them via Resend
  3. From: AgentValet <noreply@agentvalet.ai>
  4. Subject: Approval required: {agent} → {platform}/{action}

The email body has a one-paragraph summary and a magic link. The link is valid for 24 hours and works exactly once.

See Approve via magic link for the recipient’s view.

Single-use enforcement

AgentValet hashes each issued JWT and stores the hash on the approval row. A second use of the same link from the same email returns “already actioned” with the timestamp of who used it.

So forwarding the email is safe — once one delegate clicks through, the others get a clear “already done” state.

Hitting the limit on Team and trying to add a fourth delegate prompts you to upgrade or remove an existing one.

Removing a delegate

Click the trash icon. The delegate’s email stays in the audit log against historical approvals they actioned (so you can trace who did what), but they stop receiving emails immediately.

When delegation is the wrong tool

  • You want the teammate to manage agents, connect platforms, see billing. That needs a full dashboard account — they should sign up via Clerk under your organisation when we ship org membership. Today, AgentValet is owner-per-account.
  • You want to delegate to an external party (auditor, contractor). Delegation is fine for this — they get the magic link, they approve or deny, no AgentValet account needed.
