Click a topic to open its draft. Upload photos into it and they save automatically to that topic (a blue ✎ marks a draft in progress); come back any time to finish it. A green dot means a written description is stored. Done marks it covered and removes the working photos to save space (the collage you already sent to scheduling is kept). Undo puts the topic back.

"Pick a frame" scrubs the preview so you see exactly the frame you chose. The grid shows the middle square of the cover. Facebook picks its own thumbnail, no API control there.

Off = Reels tab only, on = Reels tab plus your grid. Collaborators get an invite and appear once they accept. Location wants a Facebook place Page ID; finding IDs by name needs a Meta review we have not filed.
6 · What happens next
Send to Scheduling stages it on the Schedule tab, where you pick Instagram and/or Facebook and post now, drop it in a slot, or set a time. If text or the TBI mark is on, the video is processed in your browser first (it runs at video speed, a 60s reel takes about a minute). Publishing then takes the networks a couple of minutes — the queue handles the waiting.
Spec notes: Facebook Reels must be 3–90s and 9:16 or Facebook rejects them; Instagram takes 3s up to 15 min. The staged video file is cleaned up automatically after it posts everywhere.
Jokes & questions
Standalone engagement posts drafted from your series — recurring bits like “Being in SF means…” or a weekly question. Generate a batch, edit any in place, then Send to Scheduling to queue them in Buffer. Define the series at the bottom.

Compose a full Substack post and hand it to Substack to publish or schedule. Email is off by default (web/app only) and only sends when you turn it on per send. For a test email or audience segments, use Open in Substack.

Checking...
Green means that channel's secret is set and the account is reachable. You can post to whichever are green.
Reconnect Facebook
If Facebook posting or commenting stops working (token expired), paste a fresh Facebook user token from the Graph API Explorer here. The system extends it to a permanent Page token automatically — no expiry, nothing to paste into Supabase.
Reconnect Threads
To pull Threads views, likes and replies (account insights), paste a fresh Threads user token minted with the threads_manage_insights permission. Not the app id|secret — a long single-string user token. The system extends it to a long-lived token automatically.
Substack (Notes)
Connect Substack to schedule Notes (short updates) alongside your other channels. Substack has no official API, so this uses your logged-in session cookie. In a browser signed in to Substack, open DevTools → Application → Cookies → substack.com, copy the substack.sid value, and paste it below. It lasts months as long as you stay signed in.
