**Approval status.** The status of an approval card THIS token raised (the request id from a `pending_approval` result): pending, approved (call the same tool again with the same arguments to run it), running (approved and still running on Willo's side — check again shortly), consumed (it ran — the result is included), denied (with the person's note), or lapsed. Cards raised by anyone else are not visible. Free.
