Use when connecting a real TikTok account to code via the Content Posting, Display and Business Account APIs — OAuth, chunked video publish with status polling, and pulling views, watch time and impression sources, then logging that performance into the wiki as a dated feedback record. Covers short-lived tokens breaking a cron, unverified pull-from-URL ownership, and rate limits. NOT what to post or how to package it (that is `shortform-strategy` and `shortform-packaging`).

# TikTok API — Transport + Ingestion for a Real Account

*You own the wire: authenticate to a TikTok account, publish video, pull the numbers, and write those numbers into the wiki as a durable feedback log. You do not decide what to make, when to post it, or how to caption it — that is the shortform strategy/packaging family. Deliver clean transport and a queryable log; let the siblings interpret.*

TikTok splits across **three** separate APIs, and a real account touches all three:

- **Content Posting API** — `https://open.tiktokapis.com/v2/post/publish/...` — the *write* side: init a publish, transfer the file, poll status. Audit-gated.
- **Display API** — `https://open.tiktokapis.com/v2/video/...` — the *cheap read* side: your own profile and basic per-video counters (`view_count, like_count, comment_count, share_count`).
- **TikTok API for Business** — the *rich read* side: watch time, completion, impression sources. Enabled through a **separate business portal**, not the standard developer app.

Auth is **user OAuth v2 via Login Kit**, never a service token. A human owns the account; you act on their behalf with a refresh token. There is **no official TikTok SDK** — you call the REST endpoints directly with any HTTP client. Treat the access token as a short-lived, refreshable credential object, never a hardcoded literal.
