Address	`https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/legal/templates/{id}`
Method	`PUT`
Operation	`put_legal_templates_by_id`
Auth	`Authorization: Bearer $HANZO_API_KEY`

Saves the org's own version of a template — a custom NDA, a house MSA — and returns it with its new version number. It takes effect for that org only; other orgs keep the built-in.

Two boundaries cannot be crossed here. Overriding a built-in INHERITS its category and its counsel-review posture, which can be raised but never dropped; and a formation or equity template is counsel-review whatever the caller sends, so no org can generate a securities-class document without the notice.

The body is validated on save, not at generation: a template that references an UNDECLARED merge field is refused with 400 rather than stored and rendered blank into a contract months later.

Request
