command `yaak import --workspace-id` creates duplicates instead of updating existing items

Needs TriageImprovement

Re-importing items that already exist in the workspace (same IDs) creates new copies with new IDs instead of updating them.


Steps:

  1. yaak export file.json wk_xyz
  2. Edit a websocket_request in file.json (e.g. change folderId), keep its id
  3. yaak import file.json –workspace-id wk_xyz

Expected: existing request updated (the bundled agent skill says “Workspace and request IDs survive an export/import”)

Actual: a second request and folder with new IDs; originals are unchanged

Ah, I see similar post already - YK390. But there the fix was for re-import/updating the workspace for non-Yaak files. Re-importing a Yaak export still creates copies…
