What this skill does

The primary requires a Mastodon instance URL and access token and shows JSON examples for one or more statuses, including media-only posts. Publishing acts on the user’s account. Before execution, review each status, visibility setting, schedule, and attachment, and use an access token with only the minimum required posting permissions.

Design content and permission review before scheduling a post

When to use it

When the user has authorized the exact content and target account and can review the payload and attachments before execution

Example prompts

Generated from the skill’s documentation as examples; not results of actual runs.
