As the signed-in person, who needs to be able to change the group’s settings (an owner or admin, here or above). In one transaction, it adds what the group doesn’t have yet: subgroups (private, owned by the person, as Grouperly’s “Add a subgroup” makes them), positions, roster tags, setting defaults the group hasn’t chosen, and event series, each with a first event as an all-day draft and its checklists.

It never changes or removes anything. What the group already has by the same name is kept and linked. Keys are remembered, so applying a newer version, or another of the vertical’s blueprints, adds only what’s new, and something a leader removed doesn’t come back.
