Governed ability

Get pending comments

aafm/get-pending-comments Read only

List the moderation queue (requires moderate_comments).

How it is governed

The same model as every ability in the plugin, stated for this one.

  • Off until you enable it

    Like every ability, Get pending comments ships switched off. You turn it on one at a time, and an update never widens access on its own.

  • Reads only

    It reads data and returns it to your client. Nothing on your site is created, changed, or removed.

  • Capability gated

    A connection only sees Get pending comments if the user you connected can run it, and the plugin checks that capability again before it executes.

  • Every call audited

    The call is written to the log in your own database, denials included, with the argument keys but never the values.

Try it with a prompt

Example requests you could paste to your agent.

  1. Show me every comment waiting in the moderation queue.
  2. List the pending comments so I can triage them.
  3. What is awaiting approval right now?

These are illustrative example prompts. The agent runs them as the user you connected, checked against that user's capabilities and written to your audit log.

Frequently asked

Short answers for Get pending comments.

What capability is required?

It requires moderate_comments, since it exposes the moderation queue. Without that capability the call is denied and logged.

How is this different from get comments?

Get comments returns already-approved comments, while this returns the queue of comments still awaiting moderation.

Is it on by default?

No. It stays off until an administrator turns it on.

Back to all abilities

Governed by default, from the first call.

Get pending comments is off until you enable it, scoped to the user you connect, and logged like everything else. Turn on only what you need.

Every ability off until you enable it, capability-gated on every call.
