It replaces the stored layer and follows the same rule: more than the environment inherits needs an organisation admin. Every write is audited. ## OpenAPI ````yaml https://platform.ankra.app/openapi.json put /api/v1/org/applications/{application_id}/environments/{environment_id}/autonomy openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Ankra Platform API version: v1 description: >- The Ankra platform HTTP contract. The /api/v1 surface is the public, bearer-authenticated API used by the Ankra CLI, MCP clients and automation; send a personal or service API token as `Authorization: Bearer `. Browser routes under /org and /chat are served on api.platform.ankra.app (each declares that server); they and /oauth/access authenticate with the ankra_session cookie, and mutations also require the X-Ankra-CSRF header. Every operation declares the credential it accepts, and no operation is served without one. This document is published deliberately: it describes the contract only and carries no organisation data or credentials.
