team_member_budget must be a non-negative finite number. Rec

Error message

team_member_budget must be a non-negative finite number. Received: {data.team_member_budget}

What it means

Same negative/NaN budget validation chain in /team/update, applied to the per-member budget field. team_member_budget controls each team member's spending cap; a non-finite or negative value would corrupt member-level budget enforcement, so it is rejected with 400 before the update is persisted. Provide a finite, non-negative team_member_budget.
