Reddit blocks nearly all non-browser access at IP level (including ISP proxies).
Switch Reddit channel to use Exa exclusively:
- Search: web_search_exa with includeDomains: ["reddit.com"]
- Read: crawling_exa for full post + comments
- check() now verifies Exa availability instead of probing Reddit API
- tier changed from 1 (needs config) to 0 (zero config)
- Removed reddit_proxy from config, CLI, and setup guide
- Updated all docs (README, README_en, install.md, SKILL.md, references)
- Fixed xreach→bird references in references/social.md
Fixes#218, Fixes#222, Fixes#221

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.
- Add 'agent-reach skill --install/--uninstall' command for explicit skill management
- Make 'agent-reach doctor' auto-install skill if not present (fixes#154)
- Add format_xhs_result() to strip bloated XHS JSON to essential fields (fixes#134)
- Add 'agent-reach format xhs' CLI command (pipe mcporter output to clean it)
- Update SKILL.md with XHS formatter usage tip
- Add tests for both features (11 new tests, 73/73 total pass)

* 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.

PR #170 added Rich markup tags to doctor output, but the test
still asserted against plain text. Strip markup before assertion.

- Replace xreach CLI with bird (@steipete/bird) as Twitter/X backend
- bird uses AUTH_TOKEN/CT0 env vars (simpler than xreach's session.json)
- Accept both 'bird' and 'birdx' binary names
- Remove version detection logic (bird v0.8.0 is the baseline)
- Write credentials.env to ~/.config/bird/ for easy sourcing
- Keep xfetch session.json sync for backward compatibility
- Update SKILL.md commands: bird search/read/user-tweets/thread
- Update install/uninstall to use npm @steipete/bird
- All 52 tests pass
* 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
- YouTube: warn when only Node.js is installed but yt-dlp config file
is missing (previously returned "ok" incorrectly)
- Douyin: use `mcporter list` instead of calling with a hardcoded
invalid share URL that always fails
- cli: replace bare `except:` with `except Exception:` in
`_detect_environment` to avoid catching KeyboardInterrupt/SystemExit
- cli: fix unclosed file handle for cloud VM detection
- config: use `os.open()` with 0o600 mode to eliminate permission
race window when saving credentials
Before: everything under tier 0 showed ✅ with vague descriptions
After: each channel shows its actual capability and limitations
Changes:
- GitHub: 'Public repos only. Set github_token for private repos'
- Twitter: shows 'Full access' vs 'Read-only' depending on birdx
- Bilibili: ⚠️ warning on servers about potential IP blocks
- XiaoHongShu: friendly message when no cookie (was showing Jina 451)
- Doctor format: tier 0 items now show detailed status messages, not just ✅
- README: platform table updated to match reality (removed exaggerated claims)
- README: doctor example updated to show new honest format
