## Definitions

### `pub.oysters.post`

**Type**: `record`

A submission to an Oysters board: a link, a text post, or both.

**Key**: `tid`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `url` | `string` (uri) | No | The link being submitted. A post carries a url, a text body, or both; the lexicon cannot express that either-or, so consumers must not assume url is present. |
| `tags` | `array` | No | Author-chosen topic tags, lowercased. Boards may recognise only a subset. |
| `text` | `string` | No | The body, in plain text. Present on text posts and on link posts that add context. |
| `langs` | `array` | No | BCP-47 language codes for title and text. |
| `title` | `string` | Yes | The headline shown in the feed. |
| `createdAt` | `string` (datetime) | Yes | When the author made the submission. Client-declared, so an appview ranks on its own receipt time. |
