## Get current authority wording and creation availability.

`GET /managed-clients/capability`

### Response 200

OK

- `managedPartnerCaseCreationEnabled` (boolean): 
- `authorityVersion` (string, nullable): 
- `authorityWording` (string, nullable): 

```json
{
  "managedPartnerCaseCreationEnabled": true,
  "authorityVersion": "string",
  "authorityWording": "string"

### Response 401

Unauthorized

- `type` (string, nullable):

### Response 500

Internal Server Error

- `error` (string, nullable): Short human-readable error label (legacy field — preserved for backward compatibility).
- `message` (string, nullable): Human-readable error description (legacy field — preserved for backward compatibility).
- `businessErrors` (array of objects, nullable): Canonical structured error array. Consumers should migrate to reading this field.
- `businessErrors[].type` (string, nullable): The type of business error (e.g., "MissingDebtCollectionContract", "MissingPowerOfAttorney", "NoPartnerAvailable").
- `businessErrors[].message` (string, nullable): A human-readable description of the error.
- `businessErrors[].solutionUrl` (string, nullable): A URL where the user can resolve this <i>specific</i> error (e.g., sign a contract).
            

Partners who want a <b>single URL</b> that walks the user through every pending
signing in one chain — instead of forwarding one URL per
`BusinessErrorApiDTO` — should use
SigningHandoff's `CombinedSigningUrl`.
The two are complementary: `SolutionUrl` is granular per-error;
`CombinedSigningUrl` is the chain-walking alternative for signing-related errors.

Partners who want a <b>single URL</b> that walks the user through every pending
signing in one chain — instead of forwarding one URL per
`BusinessErrorApiDTO` — should use
SigningHandoff's `CombinedSigningUrl`.
The two are complementary: `SolutionUrl` is granular per-error;
`CombinedSigningUrl` is the chain-walking alternative for signing-related errors.

## Soft-delete an unused represented client.

`DELETE /managed-clients/{clientId}`

Uses the same ownership, history, feature and If-Match restrictions as PUT.
            Authority, external reference reservations and create receipts are retained. No related records
            are deleted. Subsequent reads, mutations and original create replay return 404; the external
            reference cannot be reused. Success is 204 with no body.

### Path parameters

- `clientId` (uuid, required): 

### Headers

- `If-Match` (string, required): The strong ETag returned by GET for this client.
