Work Item Approvals

Adds a compact Approvals panel to work item forms, letting team members record a formal decision against any work item.

How it works

1. Choose a decision — ✓ Approve, ✗ Reject, or ⏸ Defer. Your name, decision, and timestamp appear in the list and the three buttons disappear.
2. To retract, click Remove my vote next to your own entry. The decision buttons become available again.
3. If any votes exist, a Clear all button lets anyone wipe the list after a confirmation prompt.
4. Every vote, withdrawal, and clear action is written to the work item history so the full audit trail lives on the work item itself.

Configuring which work item types show the panel

Go to Project Settings → Approvals (under the Boards section) to choose which work item types display the panel. If all types are checked — or the settings page has never been visited — the panel appears on every type.

Vote data and settings are stored in extension storage scoped to the project, so everything persists independently of work item fields and is visible to all project members.
