create_model_from_template

Create a new model using an internal workspace template as its starting point. Any workspace member may call this tool. The new model starts with a full copy of the template’s code and version history. Data-source credentials and prior run outputs are NOT copied. Provenance is recorded so the new model’s origin is traceable.
