 # Instagram linking checklist — 45 Pages with no linked IG account
 
+## VERIFIED 2026-08-10 (inside Meta Business Suite via openclaw)
+
+I read your **Business Settings → Instagram accounts** list directly. Findings:
+
+- Your existing Instagram fleet **is** the 35 already postable — they're all linked.
+- **The 45 unlinked Pages below have NO corresponding IG account** (no @flockedwallpaper,
+  @silkwallpaper, etc. exist). So "link only what exists" nets **nothing** here — these
+  would need account *creation*, which you deferred.
+- **One genuine exception found: `@hospitalityfabrics`** — a real active account (360
+  followers, 177 posts, ig id `17841407938021211`) that lives in your Business Manager
+  but is **not connected to a Page**, so the API can't reach it. It shows "Review needed
+  / 0 people assigned." To make it postable it must be connected to a Facebook Page
+  (Meta hard-requires an IG↔Page link for the Content Publishing API). DECISION NEEDED:
+  which Page should it attach to (it is NOT the same as "Hospitality Wallpaper" →
+  @hospitalitywallcoverings, which is already linked). Binding an active account to the
+  wrong Page is messy to undo, so this one is parked for Steve.
+
+**Bottom line: the 35 postable accounts are already the complete set of existing,
+API-reachable Instagram accounts.** Growing past 35 = creating new IG accounts (Tier-1
+below), which is the deferred "create + link" path.

 Generated 2026-08-10. These Facebook Pages are administered by your token but have
 **no Instagram business account linked**, so they are NOT yet API-postable. After
 you link an IG account to a Page, run `node build-registry.js` and the handle
