What it does

Google Social Media Finder is an agent skill from browser-act/skills. Searches Google to discover social media profiles associated with a person, brand, or username; returns platform name, profile URL, username, bio snippet, and follower count across X, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Reddit, Snapchat, Threads, and more. Use when user wants to find someone's social media accounts, look up social profiles, discover where a person is active online, find brand social media pages, search social accounts by name, track digital footprint, find influencer…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/extract-social-profiles.py`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Influencer and creator marketing and Lead generation. It works with Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Reddit. The repository describes itself as: Browser automation CLI built for AI agents. Break through anti-bot walls, hand off to humans across platforms when stuck. Parallel multi-task execution, independent multi-session… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • User wants to find someones social media accounts
  • Look up social profiles
  • Discover where a person is active online
  • Find brand social media pages

Example prompts

  • “s social presence, locate a public figure”
  • “Use the google-social-media-finder skill to search Google to discover social media profiles associated with a person, brand, or username; returns…”
  • “/google-social-media-finder”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 11c057b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • google.com
    • instagram.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Google Social Media Finder loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 210 tokens; SKILL.md has 686 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~210
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

description
Searches Google to discover social media profiles associated with a person, brand, or username; returns platform name, profile URL, username, bio snippet, and follower count across X, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Reddit, Snapchat, Threads, and more. Use when user wants to find someone's social media accounts, look up social profiles, discover where a person is active online, find brand social media pages, search social accounts by name, track digital footprint, find influencer profiles, check a company's social presence, locate a public figure's profiles, social media lookup, social media finder, find accounts across platforms, social profile search, online presence discovery, who is this person on social media, what social media does X use, find username across platforms.

Google — Social Media Finder

Name or brand → all social media profiles found on Google (platform, URL, username, bio, followers)

Language

All process output to user (progress updates, process notifications) follows the user's language.

Objective

Given a person's name, brand name, or username, search Google and return all matching social media profile results from known platforms.

Prerequisites

  • No login required — Google search is publicly accessible

Pre-execution Checks

1. Tool Readiness

If browser-act has been confirmed available in the current session → skip this step.

Invoke browser-act via Skill tool to load usage. If installation or configuration issues arise, follow its guidance to resolve then retry.

Capability Components

This Skill's operational boundary = what the user can manually do in their browser. It only reads data already displayed to the user on the page, never bypassing authentication or access controls. Its role is equivalent to copy-pasting on the user's behalf — the data is already on screen, automation merely saves time. JS code is encapsulated in Python files under the scripts/ directory, invoked via eval "$(python scripts/xxx.py {params})". $(...) is bash syntax; it is recommended to use the bash tool for execution.

Below are all atomic capabilities discovered and verified during the exploration phase, listed by command template with parameters. Simply invoke them as needed — no need to read scripts/*.py source code or re-verify. Only inspect scripts when execution fails for troubleshooting. Combine freely as needed during execution.

DOM: social media profile results (data extraction type)

Navigate to the Google search page for the target name, then extract all social media profile results.

Step 1 — Navigate:

navigate https://www.google.com/search?q={name}+social+media

Replace {name} with the person's or brand's name, using + in place of spaces (e.g., Taylor+Swift, Elon+Musk, Nike).

Step 2 — Wait for page:

wait stable

Step 3 — Extract:

bash
eval "$(python scripts/extract-social-profiles.py)"

Output example:

json
{
  "error": false,
  "count": 5,
  "results": [
    {
      "platform": "Instagram",      // social media platform name
      "username": "taylorswift",    // handle or page name shown alongside platform
      "url": "https://www.instagram.com/taylorswift/",  // direct profile URL
      "title": "Taylor Swift (@taylorswift) • Instagram photos and videos",  // page title
      "snippet": "274M followers · 0 following · 706 posts ...",  // bio/description snippet from search result
      "followers": "超过 2.7亿位关注者"  // follower count as displayed (language depends on browser locale)
    }
  ]
}

On error: {"error": true, "message": "..."} — check that the browser navigated to a Google search page and .tF2Cxc result containers are present.

Pagination

URL Pagination: URL pattern https://www.google.com/search?q={name}+social+media&start={offset}, where offset = (page - 1) * 10 (page 1 → start=0 or omit, page 2 → start=10, page 3 → start=20). Next page link: a#pnnext. Termination: a#pnnext is absent (last page reached) or no social media results returned.

Success Criteria

result count >= 1 and platform and url fields are non-null for every item

Known Limitations

  • Results depend on Google's index — newly created or low-traffic profiles may not appear
  • Follower count text is localized to the browser's display language (e.g., Chinese characters for a Chinese-locale stealth browser)
  • Google may show sub-pages of the same profile as separate results (e.g., both /elonmusk and /elonmusk/with_replies from X); deduplicate by base URL if needed
  • Google SERP layout changes occasionally; if .tF2Cxc stops matching, inspect page HTML for updated container class names
Show full SKILL.md (250 more words)Show less

Execution Efficiency

  • Batch orchestration: Write a bash script to loop through the command templates serially within a single session; do not parallelize within one browser (prone to triggering anti-scraping restrictions). Refer to rate information in "Known Limitations" above to add appropriate intervals. To increase throughput, open multiple stealth browser sessions and distribute work across them — each session has an independent fingerprint so rate limits apply per session
  • Test before batch execution: After writing a batch script, you must first test with 1-2 items to verify the script runs correctly; only then run the full batch. Never skip testing and execute in batch directly
  • Reduce redundant pre-operations: When multiple steps depend on the same prerequisite state, complete them in batch under that state to avoid repeatedly establishing the same state
  • Error resumption: Save results item by item during batch processing; on failure, resume from the breakpoint rather than starting over

Experience Notes

Path: {working-directory}/browser-act-skill-forge-memories/social-media-finder-google-social-media-finder.memory.md (working directory is determined by the Agent running the Skill, typically the project root or current working directory)

Before execution: If the file exists, read it first — it records unexpected situations encountered during past executions (e.g., a strategy has become ineffective); adjust strategy order accordingly.

After execution: If an unexpected situation is encountered (strategy became ineffective, page redesigned, anti-scraping upgraded, better path discovered), append a line: {YYYY-MM-DD}: {what happened} → {conclusion}

Normal execution does not write to the file. Do not record what keywords were used or how many results were returned — those are task outputs, not experience.
