bilibili:
- live-verified 2026-06: bilibili 412-blocks yt-dlp in every
configuration (latest version, direct, proxied, warmed cookies) while
bili-cli works fine without login — so yt-dlp no longer serves this
channel (it remains the YouTube backend)
- backends = [bili-cli, OpenCLI, B站搜索 API]: bili-cli covers
search/hot/rank/video-detail/audio, OpenCLI adds subtitles through the
browser session, the search API is the zero-dependency fallback
- when a broken candidate is bypassed by a working fallback, its
reinstall prescription is appended to the winning message instead of
being swallowed
- skill docs (social.md + video.md): "do NOT use yt-dlp for bilibili"
warning, bili-cli/OpenCLI command groups, curl fallback recipe,
B站 audio transcription path via `bili audio` + agent-reach transcribe
twitter:
- OpenCLI joins as the middle candidate [twitter-cli, OpenCLI, bird]
- social.md: explicit 4-step search retry chain (retry → upgrade →
OpenCLI → stable-command detour)

- live-verified 2026-06: anonymous .json endpoints are 403-blocked (all
variants) and the official API closed self-service registration in
2025-11 — so the channel now says plainly: every Reddit backend needs
a logged-in session, mainland China needs a proxy
- backends = [OpenCLI, rdt-cli]: OpenCLI rides the browser session
(desktop preferred); rdt-cli stays for servers and existing installs
(upstream unmaintained since 2026-03, noted in the ok message)
- install: desktop routes to OpenCLI, server installs rdt-cli from the
pinned git source (split out as _install_rdt_cli)
- skill/references/social.md: Reddit section rewritten as two backend
command groups + a PRAW note scoped to users who already hold
pre-2025-11 credentials (explicitly not recommended for new users)

- backends becomes the ordered candidate list [OpenCLI, xiaohongshu-mcp,
xhs-cli]; probing order makes the desktop/server split automatic:
OpenCLI never probes alive headless, so servers fall through to
xiaohongshu-mcp; first fully-usable candidate wins, fixable (warn)
candidates only win when nothing is fully usable
- xiaohongshu-mcp probing: HTTP reachability of localhost:18060
(proxy-bypassed) + mcporter config presence; guides through
`mcporter config add` when half-wired
- opencli backend: treat a sleeping extension service worker as ready —
verified live that `daemon status` reports disconnected while any real
command wakes it; disambiguate "sleeping" vs "never installed" via the
Chrome Extensions directory on disk (fixes active_backend flapping
between OpenCLI and xhs-cli across doctor runs)
- install: desktop installs OpenCLI; server prints the xiaohongshu-mcp
guide (binary to ~/.agent-reach/tools/, QR login, mcporter add);
xhs-cli is no longer installed by default (upstream unmaintained since
2026-03) but existing installs keep working as the last candidate
- skill/references/social.md: xiaohongshu section rewritten as three
backend command groups keyed off `doctor --json` active_backend,
including the 120s-timeout and login-first caveats for the mcp path
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- backends is now an ordered candidate list (first = preferred); channels
report the backend actually serving via active_backend, surfaced in the
doctor text report and --json
- new agent_reach/probe.py really executes upstream commands and tells
apart missing / broken (stale venv shebang after a system Python
upgrade) / timeout, with a reinstall prescription for broken installs
- all 13 channels migrated off which()-only checks: fixes bilibili
false-positive "bili-cli 可用" on broken shims, misleading xiaohongshu
"连接失败", rdt OSError crashing doctor, mcporter breakage masquerading
as "未配置"
- twitter: 15s probe + 1 retry (flaky 10s timeout), broken twitter-cli
now falls back to bird instead of aborting the check
- doctor survives per-channel exceptions; config supports per-channel
backend override (<channel>_backend / <CHANNEL>_BACKEND env)
- fix skill install/uninstall crash on symlinked skill dirs (the
"[Errno None] None" warning from shutil.rmtree on a symlink)

PyPI still only has rdt-cli 0.4.1 while the doctor hint required >=0.4.2, so the suggested install command always failed. Installs from the upstream GitHub repo pinned to the 0.4.2 commit instead, and syncs all four docs that still taught the PyPI path. Verified locally: clean-venv install from the pinned source yields rdt 0.4.2 and rdt status works. 86 tests pass. Fixes#294.
The Xueqiu stock API requires a login session token (xq_a_token) that
is generated by Xueqiu's frontend JavaScript and cannot be obtained by
simply visiting the homepage. This caused persistent HTTP 400 (error
code 400016) for all users.
Changes:
- _ensure_cookies(): add three-level priority — config file (saved by
--from-browser) → live Chrome cookies via browser_cookie3 → homepage
fallback. The homepage-only approach only ever got acw_tc (anti-DDoS
token), never xq_a_token.
- _get_json(): switch User-Agent from "agent-reach/1.0" to a real Chrome
UA, and add Referer: https://xueqiu.com/ to all API requests.
- get_hot_posts(): replace the defunct /statuses/hot/listV3.json endpoint
(returns empty body) with the v4 public timeline endpoint; correctly
parse item.data as a JSON string to extract author, text, and likes.
- cookie_extract.py: add Xueqiu to PLATFORM_SPECS and configure_from_browser
so that `agent-reach configure --from-browser chrome` now also saves
Xueqiu cookies (only when xq_a_token is present).
- check(): improve error message to direct users to --from-browser instead
of suggesting a proxy.
- Fix urllib.parse.quote usage (was using urllib.request.quote).
- Update tier and backends description to reflect cookie requirement.
- Add 2 new tests: cookie loading from config, Referer/UA header verification.
- Update docs: README, install guide, troubleshooting, SKILL.md, CHANGELOG.
* feat: add Xueqiu (雪球) channel for stock quotes and community posts
Add a Tier 0 (zero-config) channel for Xueqiu, China's popular stock
market and investment community platform. Uses auto-generated session
cookies via http.cookiejar — no login required.
Supported methods:
- get_stock_quote(symbol) — real-time quotes (A/HK/US markets)
- search_stock(query) — search by name or code
- get_hot_posts(limit) — trending community posts
- get_hot_stocks(limit, stock_type) — popular stocks leaderboard
Inspired by https://github.com/jackwener/opencli xueqiu implementation.

* feat(channels): add V2EX support via public API
V2EX provides a public JSON API that requires no authentication.
This PR adds:
- agent_reach/channels/v2ex.py: V2EXChannel (tier=0, zero-config)
- can_handle() matches v2ex.com URLs
- check() verifies API reachability via urllib (no extra deps)
- Register V2EXChannel in channels/__init__.py
- SKILL.md: add V2EX section with curl examples for hot topics,
node browsing, topic detail, replies, and user info
- tests/test_channels.py: URL matching + mocked ok/warn check tests
V2EX API endpoints used:
GET /api/v2/topics/hot — hot topics
GET /api/topics/show.json — node topics / topic detail
GET /api/replies/show.json — topic replies
GET /api/members/show.json — user info
* feat(channels): expand V2EX channel with data-fetching methods
Add get_hot_topics, get_node_topics, get_topic, get_user, and search
methods to V2EXChannel using stdlib urllib only (no new dependencies).
Update unit tests and SKILL.md with Python call examples.
* feat(v2ex): add data fetching methods to V2EXChannel
