Error message

Tool action request has already been resolved

What it means

Optimistic lock in the approve path: the status update ...where status=pending matched zero rows, so the action request was already resolved (approved/declined/expired) by someone else. The 409 tells the caller the request has already been resolved; re-read it to see the outcome.
