## Definitions

### `fyi.opensocial.board.thread`

**Type**: `record`

A thread, written by a member into a board's space from their own repo. A thread with a subject is the discussion attached to that thing (an event, say) and belongs on it rather than in the board's own list.

**Key**: `tid`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `body` | `string` | No |  |
| `createdAt` | `string` (datetime) | Yes |  |
| `embed` | `union` | No | Pictures with it. |
| `poll` | `ref` → `fyi.opensocial.board.thread#poll` | No | Makes this thread a poll. The replies still work; the options are the thing being decided. |
| `subject` | `string` (at-uri) | No | What this thread is attached to, if anything. |
| `title` | `string` | Yes |  |

### `fyi.opensocial.board.thread#option`

**Type**: `object`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `key` | `string` | Yes | Stable identifier a vote points at. |
| `label` | `string` | Yes |  |

### `fyi.opensocial.board.thread#poll`

**Type**: `object`

A question with fixed answers. Options carry a stable key so a vote survives the labels being edited, and closesAt is advisory — the space cannot stop a late write, the app just stops offering one.

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `closesAt` | `string` (datetime) | No |  |
| `options` | `array` | Yes |  |
