## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi.json get /posts/{id}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: CaptureFlow API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Read and create content in CaptureFlow. Scheduling and posting always go
    through an approval the user accepts in CaptureFlow: the API never publishes
    on its own (POST /posts/{id}/proposals, then the user accepts at
    `approval_url`).


    Authenticate with an API key from Settings > API & MCP (`Authorization:
    Bearer cf_live_...`), or as an app the user connected through OAuth 2.1
    (`Authorization: Bearer cfo_at_...`; PKCE, discovery at
    `/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource`). Both act for their user; pass
    `workspace_id` when the user belongs to several workspaces. `as_user` works
    with API keys only.


    The same operations are tools of the MCP server at
    https://mcp.captureflow.ai/mcp (read-only:
    https://mcp.captureflow.ai/mcp/readonly).
