Create an editable Hive post draft with everything the composer holds: per-network post types and options, Asset Library media, hashtag groups, campaigns and tags. Use channelIds: [] to prepare a private draft before connecting a social account. This never publishes or sends a message. Use read_post to inspect the saved draft, then select actual connected accounts before scheduling or publishing with the person’s approval.
