Stacksona for CrewAI
Wrap side-effecting CrewAI tools so the crew can reason and delegate normally while Gate controls execution.
Inside each governed tool wrapper that owns the real side effect.
Keep the platform's normal reasoning and orchestration. Gate only the exact action at the last safe point before execution.
Start here
- 1Build the final action.
Let CrewAI choose the action and produce the arguments it intends to execute.
- 2Check the exact action with Gate.
Send
tool_nameand the final payload immediately before the side effect. - 3Follow one of four outcomes.
Continue, wait, revise, or stop. You do not need the advanced features to get this basic path working.
Minimal setup
Give agents the governed tool wrapper, not both the governed wrapper and the raw side-effecting implementation. The wrapper should carry useful reviewer context such as the task, subject, and proposed payload.
Handle the decision
| Outcome | Gate status | What CrewAI should do |
|---|---|---|
| Continue | allow or approved | Execute the exact proposed action. If signed proof is required, validate it first. |
| Wait | pending_review | Store thread_id and resume that exact review later. |
| Revise | changes_requested | Return reviewer feedback to the part of the runtime that can revise the proposal. |
| Stop | reject or rejected | Do not execute. Replan, fall back, or end the action. |
Fail closed if Gate cannot be reached, returns an unknown state, or required approval proof is missing or invalid.
Platform notes
- Keep multi-agent reasoning and delegation in CrewAI.
- Persist the exact review thread in task or crew state if work can pause.
- Return requested-change feedback to the agent that can revise the proposal.
Advanced: review threads, revisions, proof, and audit
task_id is your grouping ID. thread_id identifies the exact Gate review and should be persisted whenever work can pause.
For changes_requested, revise on the same review thread using the revision event contract. For high-impact actions that require signed proof, validate the returned approval token before execution. Log execution success or failure when you need complete audit evidence.
For long reviews, use the platform's durable continuation mechanism instead of keeping a process, workflow, or runner open.
