An article-type note targeting X now publishes as a real draft on X (never auto-published) at schedule time: markdown is converted to X Articles' DraftJS-style content_state (snake_case), images upload first and wire into atomic media blocks, and the resulting draft edit URL surfaces back in the note result so you finish publishing in X's own editor. Reuses the native X OAuth connect token seam (afk2-x-oauth-connect); X Premium on the publishing account and missing OAuth surface as honest errors. Draft-first matches the existing Substack newsletter pattern — X Articles have no scheduling primitive, so this is the automation ceiling.
