Agent Reach — Usage Guide
Upstream tools for 13+ platforms. Call them directly.
Run agent-reach doctor to check which channels are available.

Troubleshooting
- Channel not working? Run
agent-reach doctor — shows status and fix instructions.
- Twitter fetch failed? Ensure
undici is installed: npm install -g undici. Configure proxy: agent-reach configure proxy URL.
