Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
This skill allows you to fully interact with the Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) platform. You can search for posts by keyword and return results, extract content from specific notes to structured markdown format, and perform engagement actions like liking, commenting, collecting, following users, and more.
Python 3.7+ Playwright (install with pip install playwright) Playwright drivers (install with playwright install) Configured browser environment
Before using this skill, the system will verify your login status: python scripts/validate_cookies.py If the output is True, you have normal access and can proceed with search operations. If the output is False or the login button is visible, the system will automatically execute the manual login procedure: python scripts/manual_login.py The system will launch the login interface in a browser window. You'll need to follow the instructions in the opened browser to complete the login process manually, then close the browser after completion.
Before using this skill, ensure that: The required dependencies are installed (Python 3.7+, Playwright) The system will automatically handle the cookie saving via the manual login process when needed Login status will be validated automatically using the validation utility
The skill provides several search and extraction functions: Search Notes by Keyword: python scripts/search_note_by_key_word.py <KEYWORD> [--top_n TOP_N] Extract Note Content: python scripts/dump_note.py <NOTE_URL>
The skill provides several interaction functions: Like Note: python scripts/like_note.py <NOTE_URL> Collect Note: python scripts/collect_note.py <NOTE_URL> Comment on Note: python scripts/comment_note.py <NOTE_URL> <COMMENT_TEXT> Follow User: python scripts/follow_user.py <NOTE_URL> Publish Note: python scripts/publish_note.py --image-urls <IMG1 [IMG2 ...]> --title <TITLE> --content <CONTENT> --tags <TAG1 [TAG2 ...]> Validate Login: python scripts/validate_cookies.py Manual Login: python scripts/manual_login.py
Validate login status before starting interactions Execute desired search functions if you need to find specific notes Execute desired interaction functions with proper arguments Monitor results for successful completion

Validate Login First: Login status will be automatically checked using validate_cookies.py before performing any interactions to ensure smooth operations. Rate Limiting: To avoid account restrictions, implement appropriate delays between consecutive interactions. Avoid excessive rapid interactions. Error Handling: Check the return values from the functions to ensure operations were successful before proceeding to the next action. User Intent: Only engage with content that matches user interest and preferences. The skill should complement user decisions. Browser State Management: The scripts manage browser opening and closing, so ensure system resources are available for these operations.
Session Management: The skill maintains session state through cookies stored in rednote_cookies.json. Ensure this file is properly secured. Browser Automation: The skill uses headless browsers for automation. Ensure the system has a compatible browser environment set up. URL Format: The scripts expect properly formatted Xiaohongshu URLs. Ensure URLs are valid before passing to functions. Content Appropriateness: Integrate this skill in a way that ensures interactions are appropriate and align with platform terms of service.
Cookie Management The skill stores authentication data in rednote_cookies.json This file is created automatically during the manual login process For security, protect this cookie file from unauthorized access Environment Variables No specific environment variables are required The skill uses the default configuration files in the scripts directory
Before using the rednote skill, verify: System Setup: Python 3.7 or above Playwright installed (pip install playwright) Browser drivers installed (playwright install) Minimum available disk space for browser operation Xiaohongshu Access: Ability to access Xiaohongshu.com from your network Compliance with Xiaohongshu's terms of service Valid Xiaohongshu account credentials Security Setup: The system will handle automatic login when needed Login status will be confirmed via validation script Secured storage for authentication tokens
Login Error (❌ 未找到 cookies 文件,请先登录小红书并保存 cookies) Cause: The rednote_cookies.json file doesn't exist or is not in the correct location. Solution: The system will automatically execute python scripts/manual_login.py to perform manual login and save cookies. The user just needs to complete the login process in the opened browser window. Login Session Expired (❌ 未登录小红书,请先登录) Cause: Authentication tokens have expired or are invalid. Solution: The system will re-verify login status and may execute python scripts/manual_login.py again to refresh tokens. The user just needs to complete the login process in the opened browser window if prompted. Page Navigation Issues Cause: Network connectivity issues or URL format errors. Solution: Verify URL format is correct, ensure internet connection is stable, and check if Xiaohongshu is accessible. Element Not Found During Interaction Cause: Xiaohongshu's UI might have changed or the page hasn't loaded completely. Solution: Retry the operation; if the issue persists, check for interface changes or wait before trying again.
Verify Prerequisites: Ensure all requirements are installed and accessible Check Login Status: Run the validation script before operations Review URL Format: Ensure URLs are properly formatted Xiaohongshu links Monitor Browser Behavior: Use non-headless mode to observe the automation process Check Storage Files: Verify cookies file exists and is accessible
Browser automation is resource-intensive; ensure system has sufficient memory and CPU Network latency may affect operation timing; consider adding delays between operations Run validation scripts periodically to confirm stable authentication
Terms of Service: This skill must be used in compliance with Xiaohongshu's terms of service and community guidelines Rate Limiting: Xiaohongshu may impose limits on the number of interactions per time period UI Changes: Xiaohongshu may update their interface, which could break element selectors used by the skill Geographic Restrictions: Some functionality may be limited based on geographic location
Browser Dependence: The skill relies on browser automation which may be slower than direct API calls Stability: Browser automation can be affected by network conditions and site changes Resource Usage: Each interaction launches a browser instance, consuming system resources Headless Compatibility: Some interactions may work better in non-headless mode
Authentication Storage: Authentication credentials are stored in rednote_cookies.json and should be secured Privacy: Interactions performed with this skill will be visible to other users on Xiaohongshu Data Handling: The skill doesn't collect user data beyond session management for interaction
Authentic Engagement: Use the skill to facilitate genuine engagement with content that users actually find interesting Respect Content Creators: Consider the impact of interactions on content creators and their audience Anti-Spam Ethics: Avoid using the skill for spam-like behavior or in ways that could harm the platform ecosystem
