# Set the CLI version this gateway names to its runners

> Stores the `@outerlayer/cli` version that `follow` factories of this gateway move their runners to. The gateway names the higher of this version and the version it was built from, so a stored version never lowers what a deploy names. Needs this gateway's runner version key as a bearer token, and no factory named. The gateway refuses a version npm does not serve (422 `version_not_published`), a version below the one it names now (409 `version_below_current`), and a call while npm cannot be read (503 `npm_unavailable`). A gateway with no runner version key configured answers 403 to every caller. Setting the version already stored answers 200 with `changed` false and writes nothing. `runUrl` and `actor` are what the caller reports about the workflow run and the GitHub actor; the gateway records them in its audit log and cannot verify them.

    The OuterLayer Gateway API lets you ingest coding-agent sessions and record
    evidence of work programmatically.


    Most teams reach it through the `outerlayer` CLI, which calls it for them.

    Call it directly to build your own integration or to automate what the
    dashboard does.


    Versioning: every endpoint is prefixed with `/v1/`. Breaking changes ship
    under a new version prefix (`/v2/`, etc.) with a 90-day-minimum deprecation
    window; anything additive lands on the current prefix.


    Vocabulary: the dashboard calls this API's `app` a **factory** — the unit
    that owns a set of repositories, the agent sessions worked on them, and the
    evidence they produce. They are the same entity. The API keeps `app` in its
    paths, headers, and field names because those are a published contract; only
    the product surface was renamed.
