POST /api/v1/projects/{id}/builds is a non-idempotent multipart operation available to a JWT or an nfy_ key with both project:write and build:write. The caller must have effective build:write capability on the project, and an archived workspace rejects submission. If processorId is supplied, an automation key also needs processor:read. The operation reuses the newest retained source JAR from an earlier build in that project; it does not accept a file. If that source is missing or unavailable, the submission fails.

For platforms, the request wins, then defaultPlatforms, then the service fallback. For features, the request wins, then a caller-owned processorId preset, then defaultFeatures, then the service fallback. Explicit features therefore override a processor preset. skipIrOpt defaults to false; hostingPath is optional. Usage is billed to the project's organization billing owner. Do not automatically retry this POST.
