Validate and Usage

Check caption limits before publishing, and inspect plan usage and channel quotas.

Validate post length

verlynk validate -t "Hello from the CLI!"
verlynk validate --text "$CAPTION" --strict
verlynk validate -t "Hello from the CLI!" --json
FlagDescription
-t, --textPost text to validate (required)
--strictExit with code 1 if any platform exceeds its limit
--jsonOutput raw JSON
tip

Use --strict in CI so invalid captions fail the pipeline.
