# company_update_company

UpdateCompany patches mutable company fields in a single call: name, logo_url, aliases, and — for a company Lovie did not incorporate — its entity type, state, formation date, EIN and principal address. Every field is left untouched when unset, the five profile fields included: send only what you are changing, and the rest keeps its stored value. The app removes a stored entity type, state, formation date or EIN by naming it in clear_fields; an empty value never removes one. address cannot be cleared, and is replaced whole when sent, so send every line of it. The profile fields, and clearing them, are REFUSED for a company whose source is LOVIE_FORMATION. Its formation is the filing of record, and letting the two disagree would mean the certificate says one thing and the dashboard another, with nothing to say which is right. Name and logo stay editable there, as they always were; a request mixing them with profile fields is refused whole, with nothing written. MCP-exposed so a founder can correct their own company by asking. It writes and is not idempotent. You cannot remove a value (clear_fields from an assistant is refused with PERMISSION_DENIED), and you may fill in a profile fact only where none is stored: changing a stored one, or sending any ein once one is on file, is refused the same way. Re-sending a stored value you read is not a change. For any refusal, tell the user to make it in Lovie.
