Released in1.55.0
Phase 0 hostServed (the hosted api pins 1.65.0)

Replaces the named fields of the draft at the revision If-Match names and lints it again (1.55.0); layer and purpose are fixed at create. default_layer marks the default Organization layer, read at dispatch without a publish, and clears it on the others. An archived template is refused with prompt_template_archived. A write to an Organization layer also needs prompts:admin and is otherwise refused with forbidden and the detail prompts_admin_required.
