## Update a worker template

`workers.update(strworker_id, WorkerUpdateParams**kwargs)  -> WorkerTemplate`

**patch** `/api/workers/{workerId}`

Update a worker's instructions, title, summary, visibility, or output schema. Only the fields you send are changed; omitted fields keep their current values. Only the worker creator can update a worker.

### Parameters

- `worker_id: str`

- `instructions: Optional[str]`

  Replaces the persistent system prompt. Subsequent tasks pick up the new instructions immediately; in-flight tasks keep using the previous version.

- `output_schema: Optional[Dict[str, object]]`

  Replace the worker's structured output schema. Pass `null` to clear it and return to free-form text responses.

- `summary: Optional[str]`

  Replaces the worker's short one-line summary.

- `title: Optional[str]`

  New display name for the worker.

- `visibility: Optional[Literal["public", "private"]]`

  Change visibility between `public` (any org member can run tasks) and `private` (only invited members).

  - `"public"`

  - `"private"`

### Returns

- `class WorkerTemplate: …`

  - `id: str`

  - `created_at: Optional[str]`

  - `instructions: str`

  - `organization_id: str`

  - `output_schema: Optional[Dict[str, object]]`

  - `summary: str`

  - `title: str`

  - `updated_at: Optional[str]`

  - `url: str`

    Web URL of the worker in the Handinger dashboard.

  - `user_id: str`

  - `visibility: Literal["public", "private"]`

    - `"public"`

    - `"private"`

### Example

```python
import os
from handinger import Handinger

client = Handinger(
    api_key=os.environ.get("HANDINGER_API_KEY"),  # This is the default and can be omitted
)
worker_template = client.workers.update(
    worker_id="t_org_123_w_01HZY2ZJQ8G7K42W2D7WF6V4GM",
