All three had rotted past honest usability:
- Douyin's upstream (yzfly/douyin-mcp-server) is archived and required a
4-step manual local-server setup nobody could complete
- Weibo depended on an unmaintained personal fork (mcp-server-weibo)
- WeChat full-article reading was increasingly blocked by anti-bot
(#339) while doctor still advertised it as zero-config
Removes the channel files, installers, skill routing/trigger entries,
reference sections and README rows (zh+en). Honest counts: 13 platforms,
6 zero-config. They can return when maintained upstreams exist.
Follows the v1.4.0 precedent of removing Discord/Toutiao (#234).

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.
- Clarify that localhost:18060 root may return 404 (MCP is at /mcp)
- Recommend Cookie-Editor export over QR scan login
- Note that Docker container QR login is unreliable and cookies
don't auto-share to MCP service
Fixes#220

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

- 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
- Detect ARM64 architecture and auto-add --platform linux/amd64 to
docker run hints in doctor/check output
- Add ARM64 FAQ section to setup guide with two options:
Rosetta emulation (--platform linux/amd64) or build from source
- Closes#44
- docs/README_en.md: update FAQ, Works Out of the Box, Design Philosophy
- docs/troubleshooting.md: Exa fallback uses mcporter directly
- agent_reach/guides/setup-exa.md: test with mcporter call
- agent_reach/guides/setup-wechat.md: test with Jina Reader
