Validate a Threads post permalink and return the official embed block for it, using the public tokenless oEmbed endpoint. This is a permalink validator and canonical URL resolver, not a high-volume data source: the upstream applies a rate ceiling of about 1000 requests per hour, so keep it off bulk paths. A permalink that is not a valid Threads post returns a 404 and is not billed.
