`PUT /orgs/{org}/governance/style-rules-strict`

## TL;DR

| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What does it do? | Treat the organisation's style rules as errors. |
| What does it take? | A JSON body of type [`SetGovernanceSwitchBody`](https://docs.plotwork.dev/api/schemas.md#setgovernanceswitchbody). |
| What does it return? | Status 200 with a body of type [`OrganisationGovernance`](https://docs.plotwork.dev/api/schemas.md#organisationgovernance). |
| What can go wrong? | `400` the body is not valid; `401` not signed in; `403` only the owner may (orgs.forbidden), the plan does not include the policies (plan.governance_not_included), or the request came from an origin that may not make changes; `404` no such organisation, or the caller is not a member of it; `429` too many requests; `503` organisations are not set up on this server. Every failure uses the one error envelope. |

## What it does

On, a publish or an editor save that breaks a saved style rule is refused with orgs.style_rules_failed and the findings as data. Off, broken rules stay warnings. Enterprise; only the owner.

## Response body

A 200 answer has the type [`OrganisationGovernance`](https://docs.plotwork.dev/api/schemas.md#organisationgovernance).

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `available` | `boolean` | yes | Whether the organisation's plan includes the policies (Enterprise). A choice saved before is kept, and is not applied without it. |
| `retention` | `OrganisationRetention` | yes |  |
| `retention.libraryDays` | `90` | yes | "Delete library diagrams not updated for": 90, 180, 365 or 730 days, or null for never (the default). |
| `retention.auditDays` | `365` | yes | "Keep the audit log for": 365, 730 or 2555 days (one, two or seven years), or null for the plan's days (the default). It only lengthens. |
| `retention.planLibraryDays` | `integer \| null` | yes | How long the plan keeps a diagram after its last publish, or null for until it is deleted. The plan's limit wins when it is shorter. |
| `retention.planAuditDays` | `integer` | yes | How many days the plan keeps an audit event. |
| `retention.effectiveLibraryDays` | `integer \| null` | yes | What is applied: the shorter of planLibraryDays and libraryDays. Null when diagrams are kept until they are deleted. |
| `retention.effectiveAuditDays` | `integer` | yes | What is applied: the longer of planAuditDays and auditDays, auditDays counted up to auditMaxDays. |
| `retention.auditMaxDays` | `integer` | yes | The longest auditDays this server takes: 730 unless its database is on D1's paid tier, then 2555. Every organisation shares one database. |
| `legalHold` | `object \| null` | yes | The legal hold, or null when it is off. While it is on nothing of the organisation is deleted: no sweep, no member, and not the organisation itself. |
| `legalHold.since` | `integer` | yes | When the owner turned it on, in milliseconds since the epoch. |
| `legalHold.reason` | `string \| null` | yes | The reason the owner typed. Shown to the owner and admins; null for anyone else. |
| `patternsOnly` | `boolean` | yes | "Agents start from approved patterns": find_pattern, called through the organisation's connections and keys, answers with its own patterns only. |
| `styleRulesStrict` | `boolean` | yes | "Style rules are errors": a publish to the library that breaks a saved style rule is refused with the findings. |
