What it does
Four Node.js scripts that query public Douyin data through the third-party Guaikei data API: keyword search (sort by relevance, likes or recency; filter by time, length, video or image post), a creator's posts and follower counts, comments on a video, and the roughly 50-item hot list. Output is one JSON envelope per call with titles, authors, like/comment/share counts, links and dates, up to 10,000 items, and results are also saved to a local logs folder. It does not log in or post. The SKILL.md has strict agent rules: ask for missing keywords or links, never retry after auth errors, never change the query without asking.
