Usage Examples

| You say | What happens | |---------|-------------| | 搜索一下海鲜视频 | Searches Douyin for seafood videos | | 帮我找抖音上做菜的视频 | Searches Douyin for cooking videos | | 抖音热搜 | Shows today's trending topics | | 这个抖音视频讲了什么 https://douyin.com/video/xxx | Extracts video details |

How It Works

Uses web search (Brave) to discover Douyin content, then fetches page metadata where possible. No cookies, API keys, or login required.

Limitations

• Results depend on search engine coverage (may not be fully real-time)
• Douyin's CAPTCHA may block detailed page fetching in some cases
• Cannot download videos — use a dedicated downloader skill for that
