Description
Problem Im solving: Im running 30+ fully autonomous agents. In some rare cases they get blocked because they cannot decide what direction to take.So I built a communication channel for them. So in case they get blocked they can ask me anything. The base case should be that no questions should arrive to me. But the more I automate the agents the more edge cases I find. That's why I built the `ask-a-human` where all my agents are connected into my phone in the same PWA app. I get push notifications and banners when agent needs something from me. That's all. It is also plug n play. No Account No configuration No monetization. It works with Magic Wormholes the channel is end to end encrypted.Please let me know if you find it useful!

Could you build this?
Yes A notification/approval pager for autonomous agents is essentially an API webhook with a mobile/web dashboard or push notifications (via Telegram, Discord, or WebSockets) for human-in-the-loop decisions.
