# Instagram Direct Publishing Eligibility Check

Check which Instagram accounts are eligible for direct publishing before planning on it.

## Scope
Preparation and review only. No account action or professional decision.

## Inputs
The connected Instagram accounts and the eligibility state recorded for each.

## Workflow
1. List each connected account.
2. Record its direct publishing eligibility.
3. Flag accounts that are not eligible.
4. Return the eligible count without changing any connection.

## Output contract
workspace | accounts_total | accounts_eligible | accounts_manual | verdict

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional workspace had 5 connected accounts and 3 were eligible for direct publishing: 2 accounts still need manual posting.

## Review gates
Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
