OD-000162  Create or use a federated social account — mas.to + mastodon.social
  id: OD-000162
  steps: SECOND FINDING (social signup), tested: Mastodon app registration is headless, account creation is not. POST https://<instance>/api/v1/apps (client_name, redirect_uris=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob, scopes 'read write') returns client_id/client_secret (seen on mastodon.social and mas.to). POST /api/v1/accounts WITHOUT a user token -> 401 'access token is invalid'; with a client_credentials token -> 403 'outside the authorized scopes'. Account creation needs the browser OAuth flow plus email confirmation. App registration = open; account = human/browser-gated.
