PATCH/api/v1/workflows/{id}

Update workflow

Updates a workflow's graph and metadata. Body must include projectId (400 without it) plus at least one of name (trimmed to 200), description (truncated to 2000), tags (strings, max 20), nodes and edges — anything else is 400 'No updatable fields'. The nodes/edges graph is validated against the shared workflow ceilings and rejected with 400 on violation. There is no `triggers` field: the workflows table has no such column. Requires evals:update and editor-or-above; membership of the project's org is verified first, and the UPDATE is pinned to (id, project_id) so a mismatch is 404. Returns { id, name, updated_at }.
