Inside chat.agent's HITL: a refund approval parks the run for 37 seconds, then resumes

CodeByPoonam · x · 2026-09-15

In a follow-up to the Trigger.dev chat.agent test thread, the author demos human-in-the-loop: a refund tool call emits, then the run parks on a durable waitpoint — not a setTimeout, not a queue row — until approved in the UI. Logs show it parked for 37 seconds, and the author notes it could sit for 11 hours and still survive redeploys and crashes. The thread also shows using Claude Code to integrate Trigger.dev directly from a copied agent prompt.
