Introduction

When using AI agents, there comes a moment when you wonder, "Is it really okay to execute this?" This is especially true for irreversible actions like posting tweets, sending emails, or deleting files.

So, I built it. A skill that receives user approval via Discord emoji reactions.

📸 Example of a message in Discord with 1️⃣ 2️⃣ 3️⃣ 🔥 ❌ emojis attached

Solution: Number Emoji Approval System

Design Principles

Implementation Code (approval_workflow.py)

class ApprovalManager:
    """승인 워크플로우 관리자"""
    
    EMOJI_MAP = {
        '1️⃣': 0,
        '2️⃣': 1,
        '3️⃣': 2,
        '🔥': 'all',
        '❌': 'reject'
    }
    
    def __init__(self):
        self.pending = {}  # message_id -> candidates
        self.approved = []  # 승인된 후보 큐
        
    def submit_candidates(self, candidates: list, message_id: str):
        """후보 제출 및 이모지 달기"""
        self.pending[message_id] = {
            'candidates': candidates,
            'submitted_at': datetime.now(),
            'expires_at': datetime.now() + timedelta(hours=24)
        }
        return self.EMOJI_MAP.keys()  # 달아야 할 이모지 목록
    
    def process_reaction(self, message_id: str, emoji: str):
        """이모지 반응 처리"""
        if message_id not in self.pending:
            return None
            
        action = self.EMOJI_MAP.get(emoji)
        candidates = self.pending[message_id]['candidates']
        
        if action == 'all':
            self.approved.extend(candidates)
        elif action == 'reject':
            del self.pending[message_id]
        elif isinstance(action, int) and action < len(candidates):
            self.approved.append(candidates[action])
            
        return self.approved

Discord Integration

Add emojis using OpenClaw's message tool:

# 후보 전송 후 이모지 달기
message_id = send_candidates_to_discord(candidates)
 
for emoji in ['1️⃣', '2️⃣', '3️⃣', '🔥', '❌']:
    message(
        action='react',
        channel='discord',
        messageId=message_id,
        emoji=emoji
    )

ClawdHub Deployment Attempt (Failed)

ClawdHub is the OpenClaw skill marketplace. You can share the skills you've created.

Deployment Attempt

clawdhub publish ./skills/discord-emoji-approval

Error Encountered

Error: Unable to connect to clawdhub.com

The service was temporarily unstable. Decided to try again later.

Alternative: Direct Installation from GitHub

If ClawdHub isn't working, you can install it directly via the GitHub URL:

# 다른 사람이 설치할 때
git clone https://github.com/arang/openclaw-skills.git
cp -r openclaw-skills/discord-emoji-approval ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/

Conclusion

Thanks to this skill, the AlphaHunter bot transformed from a "dangerous bot where AI tweets on its own" to a "safe bot that tweets only upon human approval."

Next time, I will share my experience building a self-improving AI agent using this approval system.
