update_snippet

Update an existing Code Glue snippet's name, code or tags. If the snippet is already assigned and enabled on a webhook, the new code runs on the next dispatch — re-test with preview_snippet after editing. Registered as the WordPress Ability flowsystems-webhook-actions/update_snippet, so external AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor) can call it over MCP or REST with a scoped API token.

/ Plan step shape

{ "ability": "update_snippet", "input": { "id": …, "name": …, "code": …, "tags": … } }

/ Scope & confirmation

Minimum API-token scope for external (MCP/REST) callers: full. Runs without a confirmation pause (the overall plan is still user-approved before execution starts).
