Start a top-level technique run

POST/runs/technique

Starts a technique run through the normalized top-level run resource using technique_id, workspace_id, and inputs. technique_id must use the tech_ public API ID returned by list techniques. Mutating public API requests support an optional Idempotency-Key header for client retries; duplicate keys within two hours return idempotency_duplicate.
