Use it when:: You want a post or a Markdown article on Weibo (微博) without composing it by hand.
It does:: Opens Weibo in Chrome through its debugging protocol and fills in the text, images and videos, or an article's title, summary, body and cover.
You get:: A filled-in post or headline article (头条文章) in the browser, for you to review and publish.
Picks:: A Markdown file becomes a headline article; plain text, with or without images, a regular post of up to 18 files.
Checks:: After filling an article, it reports leftover image placeholders and any gap between expected and inserted images.
Needs:: Bun or npx, Chrome or Chromium, and a Weibo account you log in to once.

Needs Chrome logged in to your Weibo account; you publish each post yourself.

TL;DR

Its scripts drive a real Chrome, which it says avoids Weibo's anti-bot detection, and the login from your first run persists. For an article, it converts the Markdown to HTML in the default theme, clicks 写文章 in Weibo's editor, fills in the title (32 characters at most, truncated with a warning) and summary (44 at most, regenerated from the content if longer), pastes the body, then swaps each image placeholder for its image through the clipboard. Title, summary and cover can come from the file's frontmatter or from options. If Chrome's debugging port doesn't answer, it kills only the Chrome instances running with its own profile, without asking, and retries. A preferences file can set a default Chrome profile.

Post to Weibo

Posts via a real Chrome browser (CDP), which avoids anti-bot detection. Scripts only fill content in the browser — the user reviews and publishes manually.

Script Directory

{baseDir} = this SKILL.md's directory; scripts are at {baseDir}/scripts/<script-name>.ts. Resolve ${BUN_X}: bun if installed → else npx -y bun → else suggest installing bun.

Script	Purpose
`scripts/weibo-post.ts`	Regular posts (text + images)
`scripts/weibo-article.ts`	Headline article publishing (Markdown)
`scripts/copy-to-clipboard.ts`	Copy content to clipboard
`scripts/paste-from-clipboard.ts`	Send real paste keystroke

Preferences (EXTEND.md)

First found wins:

Priority	Path	Scope
1	`.baoyu-skills/baoyu-post-to-weibo/EXTEND.md`	Project

None found → use defaults. Supported: default Chrome profile.

Prerequisites

Google Chrome or Chromium; bun. First run: user logs in to Weibo manually (session persists). Works on macOS, Linux, Windows.

Post Type Selection

Unless the user specifies: Markdown file (.md) → Headline Article (头条文章); plain text / text with images → Regular Post.

Regular Posts

Text + images/videos (max 18 files total), posted on the Weibo homepage.

${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/weibo-post.ts "Hello Weibo!" --image ./photo.png
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/weibo-post.ts "Watch this" --video ./clip.mp4

Parameter	Description
`<text>`	Post content (positional)
`--image <path>`	Image file (repeatable)
`--video <path>`	Video file (repeatable)
`--profile <dir>`	Custom Chrome profile

Headline Articles (头条文章)

Editor: https://card.weibo.com/article/v3/editor.

${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/weibo-article.ts article.md
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/weibo-article.ts article.md --cover ./cover.jpg

Parameter	Description
`<markdown>`	Markdown file (positional)
`--cover <path>`	Cover image
`--title <text>`	Override title (max 32 chars, truncated with warning if longer)
`--summary <text>`	Override summary/导语 (max 44 chars, auto-regenerated from content if longer)
`--profile <dir>`	Custom Chrome profile

Frontmatter: title, summary, cover_image.

Markdown-to-HTML: do NOT pass any --theme when converting; use the default theme.

Script flow: opens the editor → clicks "写文章" and waits until editable → fills title and summary → pastes HTML into the ProseMirror editor → replaces image placeholders one by one (copy image → select placeholder → paste).

Post-composition check: the script then reports remaining WBIMGPH_ placeholders and expected vs actual image count. If it prints warnings, tell the user the specific issues before they publish.

Troubleshooting

Chrome debug port not ready / Unable to connect: automatically, without asking, kill only the CDP Chrome instances (with --remote-debugging-port AND the baoyu-skills profile), then retry:

pkill -f "remote-debugging-port.*baoyu-skills/chrome-profile" 2>/dev/null; sleep 2

Never kill all Chrome processes (pkill -f "Google Chrome") — the user may have regular Chrome windows open.

Extension Support

Custom configuration via EXTEND.md — see Preferences.
