Description

A chat conversation can be moved between projects: `PUT /api/organizations/{org}/chat_conversations/{uuid}` with `{"project_uuid": …}` returns 202 and the change reads back.

There is no equivalent for a Cowork/Code session. `PUT /v1/code/sessions/{cse_id}` accepts `chat_project_id`, `chat_project_uuid` and `project_uuid` and returns **200 in every case while the field stays null** — a silent no-op, which is worse than a 400. `POST /v1/code/sessions/{id}/project` and `/move` are 404, and `PATCH|PUT /api/organizations/{org}/cowork/sessions/{id}` and `.../code/sessions/{id}` are 404.

Result: a session that was started outside a project (including trigger-spawned relay runs) can never be filed, so an account that organises everything by project keeps a permanent unfileable remainder — 15 sessions on this account.

Asks, in order of preference:
1. Allow the project to be set on an existing session (API + a "Move to project" control in the UI, matching chats).
2. Failing that, reject an unsupported field with 400 instead of returning 200 and dropping it.

Research direction

Start by tracing the PUT /v1/code/sessions/{cse_id} handling and compare it with the working chat-conversation project update. Confirm how project_uuid and related fields are persisted, then inspect the corresponding UI flow. Done means an existing session can be moved and read back under the project, with a UI control; otherwise unsupported fields must return 400.
