ReachWeaver platform and ecosystem research

Research snapshot: 2026-10-08. These are implementation constraints and initial leads, not a claim of integration, API approval, or user authorization. Consult current official documentation again immediately before implementation. APIs, cost, scopes and account requirements change frequently.

Key external dependency: platform approvals

Section titled “Key external dependency: platform approvals”
Service Initial feasibility finding Primary documentation Planned issue
Bluesky Posting is based on AT Protocol app.bsky.feed.post records; SDKs and account credentials/sessions are documented. Use supported auth and receipt URIs. Creating a post #12
Mastodon Official POST /api/v1/statuses and POST /api/v2/media; federated instance rules may differ. Statuses, media #13
LinkedIn w_member_social is an available member publishing permission; organization/community features have distinct restrictions. Versioned Posts API requires supported headers and version checks. Access, Posts API #14
Threads Official Meta Threads API and app authorization for creating/publishing content; available features depend on granted permissions. Meta’s Threads API Postman workspace #19
Instagram Instagram Graph API publishing is oriented to professional Business/Creator accounts; consumer account direct publishing cannot be assumed. Login/permissions differ by integration model. Meta’s Instagram API workspace #20
Facebook Page role, access tokens, app permissions and review must be verified before specifying allowed content formats; do not assume personal profile publishing. Meta developers #21
YouTube videos.insert supports uploads. Uploads by unverified projects created after 2020-07-28 can be restricted to private; public release may require audit. Quota model changed during 2026. Uploads, revision history #22
TikTok Direct Post requires relevant posting permission and approved app setup. Unaudited clients are restricted to private viewing; explicit creator preferences and audit are important. Creator draft export can be a fallback. Direct Post, sharing guidelines #23
X Official POST /2/tweets exists and pay-per-use pricing is advertised; do not assume a free quota. Check spending and app access at implementation time. X developer, manage posts documentation #24
Reddit OAuth developer access and submission endpoints exist, subject to responsible builder/developer terms and subreddit restrictions; unsolicited automated outreach, unauthorized scraping and vote manipulation are not permitted. Data API help, Don’t break the site #24
Pinterest Official create-Pin and board endpoints; new app access restrictions affecting non-business users are explicitly documented for registrations after 2026-09-14. Create boards/Pins #24

If a platform does not permit automated publishing for the configured user/app, ReachWeaver should create a human-reviewed manual-export package, not scrape private endpoints, bypass an audit, impersonate a normal browser session to evade restrictions, or claim an unverified upload is public.

Existing projects to study rather than copy blindly

Section titled “Existing projects to study rather than copy blindly”
  1. Postiz: open-source social scheduler with API, analytics and automation integrations. Its repository is AGPL-3.0. Evaluate use as an optional backend and verify obligations before copying any code or incorporating it into another licensed product.
  2. Anthropic marketing draft-content skill: examples of audience/brand-tailored channel content, hooks and SEO. Study skill structure and ideas; license-check any source reuse.
  3. Anthropic agent skills documentation: a Claude Code project skill is installed in .claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md; use progressive disclosure and minimal core instructions.
  4. YouTube Analytics metrics: views, engaged views, watch time and retention are distinct measurements. Never pretend raw reach metrics are fully comparable across networks.

Differentiation hypothesis — test, don’t assert

Section titled “Differentiation hypothesis — test, don’t assert”

Existing schedulers already handle publication; ReachWeaver may offer additional value if it can demonstrably:

  • Discover high-value announcements in real technical work with evidence and novelty filtering.
  • Convert the announcement into different, credible messages for each audience and network.
  • Keep humans in control while supporting repeatable, secure multi-account workflows.
  • Attribute outcomes to projects/websites and learn from properly defined experiments.
  • Integrate optional SEO workflows without assuming social shares directly increase search rankings.

Benchmark these hypotheses with offline and opt-in field tests under #27. No engagement improvement should be stated as fact until measured.

OAuth/account-approved authorization, least privilege, revocation, encrypted/token-vault storage, redaction, prompt-injection resistance, accurate claims, user consent, anti-spam frequency caps, explicit human approvals and clear audit trails are release gates, not optional enhancements.
