What it does

Weibo CLI is a read-only command-line interface for Weibo that exposes hot searches, real-time trending topics, timeline feeds, post details, comments, reposts, and user profiles. The skill documents authentication flows (browser cookie extraction and QR code), command usage, output formats (table, JSON, YAML), and safety/rate-limit recommendations for automated agents. It is designed to let agents fetch and parse Weibo data from the terminal in structured formats suitable for downstream analysis.

When to use it

Invoke this skill whenever an agent needs to retrieve Chinese social-media data from Weibo: monitor hot topics, extract trending keywords, read specific posts and comments, or inspect a user's public profile and recent posts. It's appropriate for research, monitoring, and summarization tasks where write actions (posting, liking) are not needed.

References: detailed command reference and agent workflow examples (jq pipelines, JSON outputs).
Instructions: authentication checks, browser-cookie extraction guidance, QR-login steps, and agent safety notes about rate limits and secret handling.
