   Written-by: Triage

   Re-triaged on main 97065bac: needs-info, because the report describes two very different situations with the same words, and the code distinguishes them:

   • Auto-send is off for that room — then a held line is by design. social.js:176-183 names face_room_auto_send_off as a real per-room switch, :4497 only auto-sends a face line when autoSendFaceLine succeeds, and :4510-4515 refuses unless held.autoSendHold === true. A pair that has never set it reads “Waiting for approval” forever, and the owner's Approve is the feature working.
   • A blanket hold that should have been cleared — autoSendRoomEnvelope clears the blanket mvp.all_outbound_requires_approval hold for a room line (:1825, :1867, :2000), and :181-182 says explicitly that neither outbound path clears face_room_auto_send_off. If the pair is a co-seat in one open room and the room's own Auto-send is on, a card here is a bug — in the clearing path, not in the seat.

   What I need on this issue to decide between them, all of it from the same attempt:

   1. the hold's holdReason and reasons (the face_room_auto_send_off switch versus a blanket reason);
   2. whether the room's own Auto-send switch reads on for the holding Bot, and for the other seat;
   3. which room (roomId) and whether both Bots are current members of that same open room — co-seat versus 1:1 is the axis Send a shared-room leave while the seat is still reachable #1174/Co-seat shared-group Bot outbound still waits for owner Approve #1175 turn on;
   4. whether the same pair, outside any room, also waits — if yes this is the 1:1 path (#948 territory), not the room path.

   With those four answered this becomes either “working as designed, set the room's Auto-send” (and closes) or an agent-ready bug with a named file. Labels: area:social added, because this is Bot Social outbound, not a UI defect.
