# overlane features set

{/* 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`. */}

Writes a workspace override that wins over the feature's stage. A workspace on stable or LTS can have one upcoming feature on at a time; a second is refused with the one to switch off first. An agent token for the team can set it, as can a person who manages the workspace's policy.

## Usage

```sh
overlane features set feature state [--channel CHANNEL] [--dry-run]
```

## Arguments

| Argument | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `feature` | yes | The feature id |
| `state` | yes | on or off |

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `--channel` | one of `internal`, `nightly`, `beta`, `stable`, `lts` | no |  | The channel the workspace is on (default: stable) |
| `--dry-run` | boolean | no |  | Print the requests and file changes this command would make, then stop. Needs no credentials. |

## Examples

```sh
overlane features set live-feed on
overlane features set live-feed off --channel beta
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `write` (changes local or hosted state).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: yes. Accepts `--force`: no.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema features set`.

## Result

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