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.
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.
Works best with agents that can run shell commands, manage credentials securely, and parse structured JSON/YAML output.
Weibo CLI is a read-only Weibo interaction tool using browser cookie extraction or QR login. SKILL.md is well-structured with clear auth steps, command reference, and safety notes. No scripts bundled — purely a CLI wrapper skill. Cookie extraction from local browsers is a minor security surface but handled responsibly with explicit safety notes.
No scripts to test. SKILL.md instructs agents to treat cookie values as secrets and not echo them — good security hygiene. Built-in rate-limiting with Gaussian jitter is a positive. No exfiltration risk, no destructive commands. Deductions: cookie extraction from browser is a sensitive operation (-12 shell injection risk from unquoted uid params in examples), phone-home telemetry not applicable but auto-extract cookies could leak (-8). Usefulness is moderate — Weibo is niche outside China, but valuable for that audience.
