Post a charge line to a folio. amount is the charge’s base amount — inclusive taxes (VAT-style) ride inside it, while exclusive tax lines and gratuity add on top, so the folio debit is amount + Σ(exclusive tax) + gratuity. Each tax_lines entry lands as a linked tax_application row for fiscal / OTA disclosure; the charge’s aggregate tax is the sum of every line regardless of inclusivity.

Effects: create hospitality.charge; create hospitality.tax_application; link hospitality.link.folio_has_charge; link hospitality.link.charge_has_tax_application; link hospitality.link.charge_for_service_item; link hospitality.link.charge_at_outlet; modify hospitality.folio.

object
branch

Apply against an open branch’s overlay view instead of the canonical (main) plane. The action’s writes land in the branch’s copy-on-first-write overlay, its events in the branch’s own stream, and the invocation is journaled for merge-by-replay. Branch writes are action-only, so this is the write-side entry point to a branch (POST /v1/branches forks one).

return_modified

When true, the response carries modified_objects and modified_links projections — the engine reads the event log inside the same transaction so the projection observes the handler’s own writes.

ApplyActionResponse

Envelope returned by the Aerandil action engine. correlation_id ties every event emitted by this invocation; modified_objects and modified_links project the events the handler emitted (per the action’s declared effects); warnings carries any non-blocking soft-validator observations.

Per-invocation correlation id; matches events.correlation_id for every event this action appended.
