The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

I need to tidy linked accounts. Review and manage all external accounts connected to claire@lumenphoto.com: list each linked account (Facebook page, shop platform, analytics, third-party schedulers), the permission level granted, and the last time it accessed data. Revoke any links that haven’t been used in 90 days and confirm which ones need OAuth reauthorization to keep posting.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I show this to the team, make the linked-accounts view actionable: surface which connections can publish content, which can read private messages, and which store financial data. Highlight any provider known for past breaches and flag the ones that need reapproval to avoid a publishing outage next week.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

We lost the shop connection and orders stopped syncing

The online shop stopped syncing yesterday and I discovered the shop platform is no longer linked. I don’t know whether the token expired, someone revoked access, or our payment admin changed settings. I’m afraid orders will be missed and customers billed twice. Should I reauthorize now, contact the platform admin, or temporarily pause the shop to avoid inconsistency? What’s the safest immediate move?

Connections break during launches and we scramble

Every product launch we scramble because third-party connections expire or lose permissions. Where are we failing — missing reauth schedules, single-admin dependency, or unclear permission levels — and what regular habit and simple documentation do I put in place so launches aren’t held hostage by an OAuth token?

Other social platform work people do in Instagram.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
