×Send OpenClaw your photos and a line about them; it drafts the Mastodon post with up to four images and a description for each through Tareno, for you to approve.
Yes. Send OpenClaw the photo names and a line about the shoot in a channel configured in your Gateway. It writes the post, drafts a description for each of up to four images and saves a draft for your Mastodon account through Tareno. It cannot see the photos, so you check the descriptions. Scheduling stays pending until you approve it.

Photography is one of the most active corners of Mastodon, and it comes with a strong habit: every image gets a description. For a photographer that is the chore that keeps posts unpublished, because writing a good description for four photos takes longer than taking them. OpenClaw lives in the chat apps a photographer already carries and can turn a few words about a shoot into drafts for the descriptions, which the photographer then corrects. This page follows a street photographer through a post from a Sunday walk, with the honest limit that OpenClaw writes from your words, not from the pixels, and the privacy care that photographing people calls for.
Imagine a photographer who sends OpenClaw four file names and a message on Signal: Sunday flower market, early light, stall of tulips, vendor arranging buckets, no faces. OpenClaw finds the files with list_media, writes a post of 180 characters and drafts a description for each photo from her message: what is in frame, the light, the mood. It tells her that it wrote from her words and cannot see the images. She corrects two descriptions, OpenClaw saves the draft with create_drafts for her Mastodon account, and she approves a Monday 07:30 request.
Send the file names and a few words per image: subject, light, mood. OpenClaw cannot see the photos, so the descriptions are only as good as your words.
The photos are found with list_media, and any name that matches nothing is reported. Four images at most fit on a Mastodon post under Tareno's configuration.
OpenClaw writes a description for each image and says plainly that it did so from your message. Correct anything that does not match the picture.
Confirm that nobody identifiable appears without consent and that you are happy to share the location. Ask OpenClaw to leave the place out if not.
list_accounts confirms the connected account and create_drafts stores the draft. Servers set their own media limits, so check that yours accepts four images.
Name a time and time zone. What you get is a pending request, and only your approval in the dashboard releases it.
Use Tareno to find the photos [market-1 to market-4] in my media library. From my notes — [early light, tulip stall, vendor arranging buckets, no faces] — write a Mastodon post within 400 characters and a short description for each photo. Say clearly that you wrote the descriptions from my words and cannot see the images.Read the draft again and tell me whether it names a place, a person or a time that could identify someone, or whether a description mentions anything about a person's appearance that I did not intend. Suggest changes and show me the original and the new wording.Use Tareno to confirm my Mastodon account [handle@server] and save the approved text with the four photos in order as a draft. Return the draft ID, and do not request a time until I give you the day and the time zone.Ask Tareno to schedule draft [draft ID] for [Monday 07:30] in the [Europe/Berlin] time zone. Reply with the pending action ID and tell me the post is not live until I approve it in the Tareno dashboard.As configured in Tareno on 2026-10-24.

list_accountsChecked:
No. It works from the file names and your message, and says so. The descriptions it drafts are a starting point that you correct against the photo, which is why they are written in plain, checkable terms.
Because many users rely on screen readers and because the community expects it as a courtesy. Tareno takes a description per image, so OpenClaw drafts one for each photo as part of the post.
Up to four in Tareno's configuration. Mastodon's documentation says limits are set per server, so a server could allow fewer or more. OpenClaw asks which four if you send more.
Yes. Mastodon's documentation requires scheduled posts to be at least 5 minutes ahead. Give OpenClaw the day, time and zone, and approve the request in the dashboard.
No. The same Tareno connection serves every network. Once your Mastodon account appears when OpenClaw lists your accounts, the workflow needs only the photos in your library.
No, only a draft exists at that point. The time request waits in Tareno until you approve it, and `get_action_status` later shows how it ended.
