The caller needs the primitive required_scope (or primitives:*) and the current Gratona permission groups. This endpoint only discovers the contract and does not execute it. ## OpenAPI ````yaml get /primitives/{name}/schema openapi: 3.0.0 info: title: Gratona API description: >- REST API for the Gratona fundraising platform, including donor, donation, sponsorship, program, event, and integration workflows.
