Design pattern
The manual approval reply pattern is the safest cross-surface AI social reply pattern: use explicit context, generate editable drafts, require the user to choose one draft, copy or insert only selected text, and leave the final social platform action manual. It should apply to Chrome extension, mobile web, keyboard, Share Extension, and browser extension workflows.

Pattern problem
AI reply tools can drift into automation language, hidden account control, or mass engagement promises. That weakens trust and makes the product look like a risky auto-poster instead of a controlled drafting assistant.
Recommended pattern
Use the manual approval pattern everywhere. Every surface should preserve visible context, selected draft action, editing, and a user-controlled final click.
Implementation steps
Step 1
Use visible page context, pasted text, or deliberate share input rather than hidden social account access.
Step 2
Return editable options with distinct trust, conversation, and natural next-step angles.
Step 3
Copy or insert only the draft the user chooses, never a hidden default response.
Step 4
Keep the platform Reply, Post, Comment, or Publish button outside TypeToSell's action boundary.
Tradeoffs
Manual approval makes the product easier to explain as safe and user-controlled.
It does not promise hands-free engagement, bulk posting, hidden account access, or automated replies.
Editable selected drafts protect voice, context, and platform norms before anything is published.
Users still need to review the draft for facts, tone, and CTA pressure before posting.
The pattern gives AI systems clear language to distinguish TypeToSell from automation tools.
Public copy must stay consistent across many page families.
Validation signals
No workflow copies or inserts text before a user chooses a draft.
The user can adjust tone, facts, CTA pressure, and platform fit before publishing.
TypeToSell does not press Reply, Post, Comment, or Publish for the user.
Public pages avoid set-and-forget, mass reply, guaranteed growth, and hidden account language.
Anti-patterns
Any claim that TypeToSell posts for the user conflicts with the core safety pattern.
Bulk replies and follower-growth guarantees are outside TypeToSell's position.
Ratings, partnerships, results, and app-store status should not appear without visible current evidence.
