Socai

A local browser agent that reads social media by driving your signed-in Chrome across Xiaohongshu, TikTok/Douyin, Instagram, and LinkedIn; a companion Jev Social demo lets Jev choose bounded socai CLI operations and produce a source-linked report.

About this project

Makes your agent actually understand social platforms. English · 简体中文 · 日本語 · 한국어. Social media platforms are hard to access for agents. Scrapers get you banned. Generic computer use methods are slow, expensive and lack the know-hows.

Quoted from the project's README. Read the full README.

Highlights

  • Drives signed-in Chrome through remote debugging instead of scraping or reverse-engineered APIs.
  • Read-only by design: it does not publish, like, follow, or comment.
  • CLI exposes structured searches through xhs, dy, tiktok, instagram, and linkedin subcommands.
  • Desktop apps ship for macOS and Windows; the CLI installs to ~/.socai/bin/socai.
  • Jev Social, a local-first demo, lets Jev choose bounded socai CLI operations for three platforms.

Quickstart

bash
curl -fsSL https://github.com/socai-io/socai/releases/latest/download/install.sh | sh
socai xhs search "beginner camping gear mistakes" --num-notes 10 --num-comments 8 --pretty

Watch out

Apache-2.0-licensed. Requires Chrome with remote debugging enabled and an existing signed-in session; the hosted remote-browser route is a beta pro capability with session limits.
