Douyin Publish

What This Skill Does

The Douyin Publish skill, developed by gonghaiquan, provides a seamless interface for automating the video upload process to the Douyin Creator Platform. By leveraging the Model Context Protocol (MCP), it orchestrates browser automation via Puppeteer to handle authentication, file uploads, metadata entry, and tag management. This tool effectively bridges the gap between your local media storage and social media presence, enabling you to manage your content pipeline directly within the OpenClaw conversational interface.

Installation

To begin, ensure you have the necessary environment set up, including Node.js and the mcporter tool. Install the skill using the command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/gonghaiquan/douyin-publish. Once installed, you must configure the underlying MCP servers. Run these commands in your terminal to link the upload and extraction capabilities:

1. mcporter config add douyin-upload "node ~/douyin-mcp-server/mcp-server/dist/index.js"
2. mcporter config add douyin-extract "uvx douyin-mcp-server" After configuration, the system will automatically handle cookie persistence in ~/douyin-mcp-server/mcp-server/douyin-cookies.json to keep your sessions alive.

Use Cases

• Automated Workflow: Perfect for influencers and content creators who need to push edits from a local folder to Douyin without manual browser interaction.
• Content Batching: Rapidly deploy multiple video files with pre-defined captions and tags in a single session.
• Session Management: Easily verify and restore your login status without needing to navigate the Douyin desktop interface manually.

Example Prompts

1. "帮我发布视频到抖音，标题：酥脆金黄鸡腿，视频：/home/gonghaiquan/Downloads/chicken.mp4，描述：外酥里嫩，标签：美食,烹饪"
2. "检查抖音登录状态，如果过期了帮我触发重新登录流程。"
3. "发布视频 /home/gonghaiquan/Downloads/vlog_01.mp4，标题：我的周末生活"

Tips & Limitations

For optimal performance, ensure your system Chrome is accessible at /usr/bin/google-chrome. Note that initial usage requires manual interaction for QR code scanning or SMS verification. Since the tool relies on browser cookies, be aware that sessions will eventually expire, necessitating a re-login. Always exercise caution regarding publishing frequency to avoid platform rate-limiting and prioritize the use of verified creator accounts to prevent security blocks.
