    description: |
      Submits a base64-encoded TransactionEnvelope XDR. The default value below is an unsigned envelope
      that calls `name()` on the native XLM Stellar Asset Contract; resubmitting it returns
      `status: "ERROR"` with an `errorResultXdr` so you can see the response shape without sending real funds.
      Replace the value with your own signed envelope to actually submit a transaction.
