docs: includeAttachments flag on List Posts and postsListTool

[giladresisi]

⚠️ DO NOT MERGE until gitroomhq/postiz-app#2012 is deployed

The documented includeAttachments flag and attachments field only exist once that backend change is live. Merging earlier would document a parameter production ignores.

What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Documentation (Public API reference + MCP tools reference). Adds the optional includeAttachments query parameter to List Posts in public-api/openapi.json and an attachments array ({ id, path, thumbnail }) on the Post schema, described as present only when the flag is set. In mcp/tools.mdx the postsListTool section gets the same optional parameter row, an attachments return row and one sentence explaining that the returned path values can be passed straight to schedulePostTool to reuse media on another channel. Nothing else on either page changed.

Why was this change needed?

A customer asked the Postiz agent to mirror their upcoming Instagram and TikTok posts onto a new YouTube channel. The agent could read the post text but had no way to learn which media was attached, so it could not copy the videos. gitroomhq/postiz-app#2012 adds the attachments to the List Posts API and to postsListTool behind an opt-in flag (opt-in to keep the default payload small). This PR documents that flag and the new field so API and MCP users can discover it.

QA

1. Run npx mint dev in the repo and open /public-api/posts/list
2. Under Query Parameters, includeAttachments is listed as boolean without a required badge, after customer
3. Under Response, expand posts child attributes: attachments is shown as object[] with the "Only present when includeAttachments=true" description and child attributes id, path, thumbnail; the generated 200 example on the right includes an attachments array
4. Open /mcp/tools#postslisttool: the intro mentions includeAttachments: true, the Parameters table has an includeAttachments row with Required "No", and the Returns table has an attachments row
5. public-api/openapi.json still parses as JSON

Both pages were checked this way locally with Mintlify; the two new rows and the schema field render correctly.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8ac67

This change documents attachment responses for post listing and reuse in scheduling. It should not merge until the supporting backend deployment is available, or users may encounter a documented API behavior that the deployed service does not provide.
