Approval
Pause a workflow until a human (or app) approves or rejects it. Drive from the approval-queue archetype or any UI that calls the gateway resumeRun endpoint. The resume payload (e.g. `{ action: "approve" }`) lands on the wait node's `triggerResult` so downstream `if` nodes can branch.

Workflow Root Example
json{ "nodes": { "root": { "type": "approval", "payload": {}, "children": [ "log_event" ] }, "log_event": { "type": "log", "payload": { "message": "Triggered at {{$trigger.triggeredAt}}" }, "children": [] } }}
Downstream nodes can use {{$trigger.triggeredAt}} and any result fields listed above. Event triggers usually expose the raw source payload under a field such as event, body, trade, or raw.
