Short answer

How can I manage my Mastodon account with an AI?

You can tell your AI to follow, unfollow, mute, or block specific users. It can also clear your notifications. You'll get a cleaner feed by delegating these moderation tasks to your agent.

Where every action lands.

The outcomes of your commands

Your AI executes these specific changes directly on your Mastodon profile.

FOLLOW

New connections

The AI adds users to your following list. This brings their posts into your timeline.

SILENCE

Muted accounts

The agent hides posts from specific users. You stay following them, but their content won't clutter your view.

BLOCK

Hard stops

The AI cuts all ties with a user. They can no longer interact with you or appear in your feed.

HUMAN

Manual review

You decide which users deserve a block or a mute. The AI handles the execution, but you keep the decision power.

The workflow

What your AI does when you give a command.

The AI translates your natural language into specific Mastodon actions.

  1. Identify the user

    Your agent finds the specific account you mentioned in your chat.

    follow_account

  2. Adjust your following

    The AI removes users from your following list based on your request.

    unfollow_account

  3. Filter your feed

    The agent restricts visibility for accounts that are bothering you.

    mute_accountblock_account

  4. Clean up notifications

    The AI wipes your current notification list to give you a fresh start.

    clear_notifications
