Human-required auth bootstrap (must happen first)

• Human creates a Meta app and provides APP_ID and APP_SECRET.
• Human configures OAuth redirect allowlist in Meta Developer settings with the exact REDIRECT_URI.
• Redirect must resolve to the AI host callback endpoint. For a local AI host:
• cloudflared tunnel --url http://127.0.0.1:53682 (or similar, it must be HTTPS)
• Set REDIRECT_URI=https:///oauth/callback
• AI runs setup without auto-opening a local browser:
• meta auth setup --profile --app-id --app-secret --redirect-uri --mode both --scope-pack solo_smb --listen 127.0.0.1:53682 --timeout 180s --open-browser=false
• Human opens returned auth_url on their own machine, logs in, and grants consent.
• OAuth redirect lands on the AI host and token exchange completes there.
• Validate immediately:
• meta auth validate --profile --min-ttl 72h

Common commands

• Schema sync (recommended before writes): meta schema sync --schema-dir ~/.meta/schema-packs
• Accounts list: meta --profile insights accounts list --active-only --output table
• Graph read: meta --profile api get act_/campaigns --fields id,name,status --limit 100 --follow-next
• Campaign dry-run: meta --profile campaign create --account-id --params "name=,objective=OUTCOME_SALES,status=PAUSED" --schema-dir ~/.meta/schema-packs --dry-run
• Campaign create: meta --profile campaign create --account-id --params "name=,objective=OUTCOME_SALES,status=PAUSED" --schema-dir ~/.meta/schema-packs
• Campaign budget update: meta --profile campaign update --campaign-id --params "daily_budget=" --confirm-budget-change
• Insights run: meta --profile insights run --account-id --date-preset last_7d --level campaign --metric-pack quality --format jsonl
• IG publish feed: meta --profile ig publish feed --media-url --caption "" --idempotency-key

Rules

• Never invent IDs, profile names, paths, redirect URIs, or payload fields.
• Require explicit confirmation before budget-changing mutations.
• Prefer machine-readable output (--output json or --format jsonl) for automation.
• Redact secrets (APP_SECRET, access tokens) when echoing commands/results.
