Adds people to a room and answers the room as it now stands.

Anyone in the space except a guest may join a public channel by naming
themselves. Adding somebody else takes being in the room already (or
administering the space, for a room they can see). A direct message's people
are what it is, so none can be added — open another one. Everyone added must
be a member of the space or one of the org's agents; an agent added to a room
answers when it is @-mentioned there.

| `bindings` | body | string\[] | —      | Bindings are what this room is ABOUT, each a "\<kind>:\<ref>" string — "project:acme/web", "repo:hanzoai/cloud", "issue:1010".                                                                                              |
| `direct`   | body | boolean   | —      | Direct reports that this is a room between people rather than a named room.                                                                                                                                                 |
| `id`       | body | string    | —      | ID is the room document's own id, and the value the bind op addresses.                                                                                                                                                      |
| `kind`     | body | string    | —      | Kind is what sort of room this is: "channel" (open to everyone in the space), "private" (open to its members) or "dm" (a conversation between the people in it).                                                            |

| `members`  | body | string\[] | —      | Members are the account uuids in the room, agents included: an agent projects as a space member under a uuid derived from its id, so a caller comparing this against GET /v1/bot/members learns which rooms an agent is in. |
| `name`     | body | string    | —      | Name is what a person sees in a sidebar.                                                                                                                                                                                    |

| `topic`    | body | string    | —      | Topic is the room's own one-line subject, as the Team client sets it.                                                                                                                                                       |

Failure carries the platform error shape — see [Errors](https://docs.hanzo.ai/docs/errors).

## Examples

**CLI**

`hanzo` has no subcommand for this operation — the CLI serves only what cloud's live route table confirms. Use HTTP or an SDK.

**SDK**

**.ts**

```ts
import { Configuration, TeamApi } from 'hanzoai';

const api = new TeamApi(new Configuration({ accessToken: process.env.HANZO_API_KEY }));
const { data } = await api.postTeamRoomsByIdMembers({ id: 'id', id: "<id>", members: ["<members>"] });
```

**.py**

```python
from hanzoai.cloud import ApiClient, Configuration
from hanzoai.cloud.api import TeamApi

client = ApiClient(Configuration(access_token=os.environ["HANZO_API_KEY"]))
result = TeamApi(client).post_team_rooms_by_id_members(id='id', id="<id>", members=["<members>"])
```

**.go**

```go
cfg := hanzoai.NewConfiguration()
cfg.AddDefaultHeader("Authorization", "Bearer "+os.Getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"))
client := hanzoai.NewAPIClient(cfg)

resp, _, err := client.TeamAPI.PostTeamRoomsByIdMembers(context.Background()).Execute()
if err != nil {
	return err
}
```

**.rs**

```rust
use hanzo_client::apis::{configuration::Configuration, team_api};

let mut cfg = Configuration::new();
cfg.bearer_access_token = std::env::var("HANZO_API_KEY").ok();

let result = team_api::post_team_rooms_by_id_members(&cfg, Default::default()).await?;
```

**.java**

```java
import ai.hanzo.cloud.ApiClient;
import ai.hanzo.cloud.api.TeamApi;

ApiClient client = new ApiClient();
client.setBearerToken(System.getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"));

var result = new TeamApi(client).postTeamRoomsByIdMembers();
```

**HTTP**

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/team/rooms/<id>/members \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HANZO_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
       "id": "<id>",
       "members": [
         "<members>"
       ]
     }'
```

**MCP**

MCP reaches **team** through the `team` tool, which names its 33 operations with its own verbs — this one among them, under a name only MCP declares. `describe` explains any of them:

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
       "jsonrpc": "2.0",
       "id": 1,
       "method": "tools/call",
       "params": {
         "name": "describe",
         "arguments": {
           "op": "list_team_account_providers"
         }
       }
     }'
```
