Description

As a user with a sensitive production project, I'd like to:

  1. prevent editing for an entire env (when prod, all workflows are read only)
  2. have a "switch sandbox" or "create sandbox" button clearly accessible from the Canvas & IDE so that I can make edits when I think of them
  3. Have a "merge" button clearly accessible from the Canvas & IDE so I can "publish/deploy" back to my sensitive read-only env.
  4. In all NON-protected envs (i.e., in all editable ENVs!!!) we should auto-save changes to workflows

Research direction

Start by tracing the Canvas and IDE workflow-editing entry points and how environments are represented. Define the protected read-only behavior, sandbox creation or switching, merge actions, and auto-save for editable environments. Done means all four requested capabilities work consistently across the Canvas and IDE.
