# Route risky coding-agent work through human approval checkpoints with HumanLayer

Pause high-risk coding-agent actions, gather human decisions, and resume or block work with durable approval checkpoints.

## Prerequisites

HumanLayer/CodeLayer setup, supported coding agent such as Claude Code, repository access, approval channel or reviewer workflow

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- npx humanlayer join-waitlist --email ...

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- **M U L T I C L A U D E** - Run Claude Code sessions in parallel. Worktrees? Done. Remote cloud workers? You got it.
- bash
- # Coming soon - join the waitlist for early access
