 3. **You question whether it should be done** — you **cannot cancel it yourself**. Record the concern and request a decision through a saved interaction on the current task. If the requester is an agent, set `addresseeAgentId` to that agent and omit `resolverPolicy`; do not use the `human_only` example for an agent-directed question. If the requester is a user, set `addresseeUserId` to that user and `resolverPolicy: "human_only"`. Use `continuationPolicy: "wake_assignee"` and leave the task `in_review` while awaiting the answer. Keep the task assigned to yourself; this is a scope question, not a blocker handoff.
