Are.na is a platform for collecting, organizing, and connecting ideas, images, links, and other creative research.

## Tools

- **Add To Channels** — Add an existing Are.na block or channel to one or more target channels without duplicating the underlying resource.
- **Create Channel** — Create a user-owned Are.na channel, closed by default, and return its stable numeric ID and generated slug.
- **Delete Channel** — Permanently delete one Are.na channel the authenticated user is allowed to destroy. This cannot be undone.
- **Get Block** — Get the details of one Are.na block by ID, including its subtype, content, source, creator, and metadata.
- **Get Channel** — Get an Are.na channel by numeric ID or slug, including visibility, counts, owner, and the current user's permissions.
- **Get Current User** — Return the identity and account details for the authenticated Are.na user.
- **Get My Feed** — Return one page of the authenticated user's personalized Are.na activity feed, newest first. Call again with next_cursor only when another page is needed.
- **List Channel Contents** — Return one page of blocks and nested channels from an Are.na channel, with optional sorting and contributor filtering.
- **Remove From Channel** — Remove one block or nested channel placement from an Are.na channel. This deletes only the connection; the underlying block or channel remains intact and may still exist in other channels.
- **Update Channel** — Update selected fields of an Are.na channel the authenticated user can edit. Fields omitted from the request remain unchanged.
