Before calling
Agents should gather these facts or confirmations first.
No required inputs are needed, but date, status, asset, and account filters should still be explicit when the user cares about scope.
Start with dry_run=true, show the preview, then ask before applying the change.
Create or confirm a backup and get explicit approval before running it for real.
