Update a package

Change a package's visibility (public or private: an unlinked package only, as a linked one has its repository's) or, for a linked package, inherit_access: whether it takes its repository's roles.

PATCH/workspaces/{workspace}/packages/{package_type}/{package_name}

Off, only the roles given on the package itself and the workspace’s owners count. Takes the Admin role on the package. Returns the package.

With inherit_access off, the repository’s roles no longer reach the package: only the roles given on it (set_package_access) and the workspace’s owners. visibility is for an unlinked package; a linked one has its repository’s.

Authentication: Required. Send an access token as Authorization: Bearer.
MCP tool: package with action update, and the same inputs
Scope: An access token needs packages:write.

Path parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`workspace`	string	Yes	The workspace’s slug, e.g. “flagon-io”.
`package_type`	string	Yes	The registry: container (also docker), npm, cargo, maven, nuget, rubygems or composer. One of `container`, `npm`, `cargo`, `maven`, `nuget`, `rubygems`, `composer`.
`package_name`	string	Yes	The package’s name without the workspace: web for g1t.sh/acme/web, web/worker for an image with more parts, group:artifact for Maven.

Body parameters

Send a JSON object. Names are snake_case, as in responses; the camelCase spelling is accepted too.

Name	Type	Required	Description
`visibility`	string	No	Who may pull an unlinked package: anyone, or the workspace’s members by its base permission. One of `public`, `private`.
`inherit_access`	boolean	No	For a linked package: whether it takes its repository’s roles.

Errors

A failed request answers with one of these statuses and a body like {"error": {"code": "not_found", "message": "Repository not found."}}. See errors.

Status	Code	When
401	`unauthenticated`	A token is required, or the one sent is not valid.
403	`forbidden`	The token is valid but not allowed to do this, such as a member-only change or an agent token outside its repository.
404	`not_found`	It does not exist, or you cannot see it.
409	`conflict`	The request conflicts with the current state.
422	`invalid`	The input is not valid. `message` says which field and why.
