I like to use Pi (https://pi.dev/), and I recently got it to make an approval extension for itself. It has a lot of documentation built-in for the agent to modify the behavior of the app.
I got it to display all proposed file change diffs and bash commands and made it so I can either approve the action or deny it with a message for it.
It was surprisingly easy to tell it to modify things things the diff viewing algorithm or syntax highlighting for the diffs.
