# overlane budget remove

{/* Generated by apps/docs/scripts/generate.mjs (CLI pages from the command registry in packages/cli). Do not edit; run `pnpm --filter @overlane/docs gen`. */}

Removes the limit for a task, an agent, a project or the team. Removing a limit is spend above the budget, a safety class: an agent presents an independent agent's approval (set OVERLANE_APPROVAL to the approval ID the refusal names), a person does not. Without a terminal it needs --force.

## Usage

```sh
overlane budget remove [--scope SCOPE] [--id ID] [--service URL] [--team TENANT_ID] [--dry-run] [--force]
```

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `--scope` | one of `task`, `agent`, `project`, `team` | no |  | task, agent, project or team (required) |
| `--id` | string | no |  | The task, agent token or project (not for team) |
| `--service` | string | no |  | The service address (default: OVERLANE_SERVICE_URL, then the project's binding, then the hosted service) |
| `--team` | string | no |  | The team (tenant) to act on (default: the one your token belongs to) |
| `--dry-run` | boolean | no |  | Print the requests and file changes this command would make, then stop. Needs no credentials. |
| `--force` | boolean | no |  | Confirm a destructive action when there is no terminal to ask on. Without it, exit 2. |

## Examples

```sh
overlane budget remove --scope task --id task-12 --force
overlane budget remove --scope team --dry-run
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `destructive` (deletes or reverts; needs `--force` without a terminal).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: yes. Accepts `--force`: yes.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema budget remove`.

## Result

With `--json` (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema's shape on stdout.
