Find orphaned media (media not used in any future posts). These are candidates for deletion.
AI agents call postiz_find_orphan_media to retrieve information from Postiz Media Manager without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads and queries the state of media files to determine which ones are orphaned. It has no side effects—it does not delete, modify, or execute operations. The actual deletion is deferred to a separate tool (postiz_cleanup_orphan_media) and only occurs after a dry-run review. Classification as Read is appropriate for an identification/discovery tool.
From the tool's definition The tool 'postiz_find_orphan_media' is described as finding orphaned media that are 'candidates for deletion'—it identifies and retrieves information about unused files but performs no deletion itself.
