# Grant Contract Gesture

`POST /admin/schools/{school_id}/contracts/{contract_id}/gesture`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.excellence-ai.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.excellence-ai.com/admin/schools/{school_id}/contracts/{contract_id}/gesture`
- Auth: OAuth 2 (password, token URL `api/login`)

Grant the commercial gesture: +30 days on the contract end date, once.

Same button for everyone, no per-role ceiling: the guard rail is that it
only works once per contract. Anything beyond goes through tech, directly
in the database.
