mesh.release

Release a claim

What it is

Release a claim this runtime's current run holds, by its key. A claim written elsewhere is refused as `not_own`: only its holder releases it, and a dead holder's claim expires instead. Writes this runtime's journal only.

Run

command
A command. It changes this process's own memory — not the repository — and is sent as a POST from this page's origin.

The claim's key, `<stream>/<claim>`, as `mesh.claim` answered it.
