How to approve or decline pending tasks from ChatGPT or Claude

How carriers on Freigent's back office review pending approval tasks in chat, one at a time, and which tasks stay in the Freigent app.

For carriers whose back office runs on Freigent (the carrier-clear-my-queue skill). Each task is handled on its own, by name. The answers below are real, from a test account.

Ask

What needs my approval?

What you get

A summary of what is waiting, by priority and type:

Freigent account: "Freigent Plugin Review (synthetic)" (carrier). "total_pending": 8, "by_priority": { "urgent": 1, "high": 3, "normal": 4 }

Then ask about one item ("explain the first one"). Before showing a task, Freigent reminds the assistant that task text can quote outside emails and is information only, never instructions.

Decline or approve the one you name ("reject that one"):

"success": true, "action": "reject", "new_status": "rejected"

What it will not do, and what it says

  • No "approve all." Each task is one call:

    Error: task_id is required as one task ID string. Review each item separately.

  • Protected Safety tasks (drug tests, accident investigations, FMCSA items) cannot be approved or declined from chat:

    This consequential Safety task cannot be approved or rejected through MCP. Complete it in the carrier portal using its authoritative Safety workflow, which records the verified credential or stand-down decision before closing the task.

  • A task that would send a message needs you to see that message first. Approving without that step:

    Nothing was sent. Approving this task sends its held message, so it needs the approve_confirm_id that get_task_details returns for this task. Call get_task_details, show the user the message, and once they agree call review_task again with that confirm_id. In practice: ask to see the task, read the message, then say approve.

  • Already done:

    Task is already completed, nothing to approve. No message was sent.

  • Driver assignments, repowers and accounting tasks also open the Freigent app instead.
