Can I upload images and post them to my feed using the AI?

Yes! First, use the `upload_media` tool to upload your file and get a media ID. Then, use the `create_status` tool and include that ID in the `media_ids` array to publish your post.

How do I see what's trending on my Pixelfed instance?

You can use the `get_tag_timeline` tool with a specific hashtag to see related posts, or use `get_public_timeline` to see the most recent public posts across the instance.

Is it possible to manage my followers through this integration?

Absolutely. You can use `get_followers` and `get_following` to list accounts, and use `follow_account` or `unfollow_account` to manage your connections.
