Zamil Majdy fb58827c61 feat(backend;frontend): Implement node-specific auto-approval, safety popup, and race condition fixes (#11810)
## Summary

This PR implements comprehensive improvements to the human-in-the-loop
(HITL) review system, including safety features, architectural changes,
and bug fixes:

### Key Features
- **SECRT-1798: One-time safety popup** - Shows informational popup
before first run of AI-generated agents with sensitive actions/HITL
blocks
- **SECRT-1795: Auto-approval toggle UX** - Toggle in pending reviews
panel to auto-approve future actions from the same node
- **Node-specific auto-approval** - Changed from execution-specific to
node-specific using special key pattern
`auto_approve_{graph_exec_id}_{node_id}`
- **Consolidated approval checking** - Merged `check_auto_approval` into
`check_approval` using single OR query for better performance
- **Race condition prevention** - Added execution status check before
resuming to prevent duplicate execution when approving while graph is
running
- **Parallel auto-approval creation** - Uses `asyncio.gather` for better
performance when creating multiple auto-approval records

## Changes

### Backend Architecture
- **`human_review.py`**: 
- Added `check_approval()` function that checks both normal and
auto-approval in single query
- Added `create_auto_approval_record()` for node-specific auto-approval
using special key pattern
- Added `get_auto_approve_key()` helper to generate consistent
auto-approval keys
- **`review/routes.py`**: 
- Added execution status check before resuming to prevent race
conditions
- Refactored auto-approval record creation to use parallel execution
with `asyncio.gather`
  - Removed obvious comments for cleaner code
- **`review/model.py`**: Added `auto_approve_future_actions` field to
`ReviewRequest`
- **`blocks/helpers/review.py`**: Updated to use consolidated
`check_approval` via database manager client
- **`executor/database.py`**: Exposed `check_approval` through
DatabaseManager RPC for block execution context
- **`data/block.py`**: Fixed safe mode checks for sensitive action
blocks

### Frontend
- **New `AIAgentSafetyPopup`** component with localStorage-based
one-time display
- **`PendingReviewsList`**: 
  - Replaced "Approve all future actions" button with toggle
- Toggle resets data to original values and disables editing when
enabled
  - Shows warning message explaining auto-approval behavior
- **`RunAgentModal`**: Integrated safety popup before first run
- **`usePendingReviews`**: Added polling for real-time badge updates
- **`FloatingSafeModeToggle` & `SafeModeToggle`**: Simplified visibility
logic
- **`local-storage.ts`**: Added localStorage key for popup state
tracking

### Bug Fixes
- Fixed "Client is not connected to query engine" error by using
database manager client pattern
- Fixed race condition where approving reviews while graph is RUNNING
could queue execution twice
- Fixed migration to only drop FK constraint, not non-existent column
- Fixed card data reset when auto-approve toggle changes

### Code Quality
- Removed duplicate/obvious comments
- Moved imports to top-level instead of local scope in tests
- Used walrus operator for cleaner conditional assignments
- Parallel execution for auto-approval record creation

## Test plan
- [ ] Create an AI-generated agent with sensitive actions (e.g., email
sending)
- [ ] First run should show the safety popup before starting
- [ ] Subsequent runs should not show the popup
- [ ] Clear localStorage (`AI_AGENT_SAFETY_POPUP_SHOWN`) to verify popup
shows again
- [ ] Create an agent with human-in-the-loop blocks
- [ ] Run it and verify the pending reviews panel appears
- [ ] Enable the "Auto-approve all future actions" toggle
- [ ] Verify editing is disabled and shows warning message
- [ ] Click "Approve" and verify subsequent blocks from same node
auto-approve
- [ ] Verify auto-approval persists across multiple executions of same
graph
- [ ] Disable toggle and verify editing works normally
- [ ] Verify "Reject" button still works regardless of toggle state
- [ ] Test race condition: Approve reviews while graph is RUNNING
(should skip resume)
- [ ] Test race condition: Approve reviews while graph is REVIEW (should
resume)
- [ ] Verify pending reviews badge updates in real-time when new reviews
are created
