Bluesky Post Details API
Post thread via getPostThread — nested replies[], facet links/mentions/hashtags, rich author (1 credit).
Pass a Bluesky post URL and get the public thread (app.bsky.feed.getPostThread) — not a duplicate of a user-posts row. Beyond the list card you get: nested replies[] with per-reply author/text/engagement (depth, default 1, max 6), parentUri/rootUri/isReply so a reply is never mistaken for a root post, facet-derived links[] (full URIs — Bluesky truncates long URLs inside text), mentions[] with did, and hashtags[], post-level labels[] + langs[], and a rich author{handle,displayName,did,avatar,createdAt,labels[],verification{},verified} matching bluesky/profile (including !no-unauthenticated compliance labels). Embeds use the same normalized type namespace as user-posts (external | images | video | quote). Flat 1 credit. This is the only Captapi surface that returns Bluesky reply content.
