MCP: Accounts
connect_account
Connect a new account. Starts connecting a new social account and returns a session with an authorizationUrl, the platform's own consent page. A person must open it and approve: give them the link, then call get_connect_session until it is not pending. The link expires in ten minutes. For an account already in list_accounts, use reconnect_account instead. Facebook connects one account per page.
