Session cookie required. Personal access tokens are not accepted. Only an owner may grant the `owner` role; everything else is the Better Auth org plugin’s gate, relayed verbatim.

`PATCH /api/v1/teams/{teamId}/members/{memberId}`

**Request body** (`application/json`, required)

- `role` (string, required)

Request body example:

```json
{
  "role": "owner"
}
```

**Responses**

- `200` — Role changed.
- `400` — Invalid body or role.
- `401` — Sign-in required.
- `403` — Refused by the owner-mint guard or the plugin gate.

Response example, 200:

```json
{
  "ok": true
}
```
