# Atomic JSON Patch

Build-time release reference. Runtime readiness, deployment, payment settlement and external indexing are not evaluated here. Prices are proposed; this file cannot authorize execution or payment.

WHEN TO USE: Apply a bounded update plan atomically before saving an API document. Implements RFC 6902 add, remove, replace, move, copy, and structural test on a private clone; stops on the first error. Strict operation schemas reject extra fields. Up to 100 operations; size, depth, and 1,000-item limits checked after each operation. Removing the root returns documentExists=false and document=null; adding the root restores it. Reserved prototype-related paths are rejected.

Release: 0.29.0. Built: 2026-10-06T15:38:00Z.
