What it does

Bilibili CLI is an agent skill from public-clis/bilibili-cli. CLI skill for Bilibili (哔哩哔哩, B站) with token-efficient YAML output for AI agents to browse videos, users, search, trending, dynamics, favorites, and interactions from the terminal

Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 41 other files (for example `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml`, `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.yml` and `.github/workflows/ci.yml`).

It sits in Media & Creative. It works with Bilibili. The repository describes itself as: A CLI for Bilibili — browse videos, users, search, and feeds from the terminal. The licence is Apache-2.0.

Example prompts

Requirements

Python 3

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Prefer --yaml first because it is usually more token-efficient than pretty JSON.
Use --json only when downstream tooling strictly requires JSON.
Keep result sets small with --max, --page, or --offset.
Prefer specific commands over broad ones. Example: use bili user-videos 946974 --max 3 --yaml instead of fetching large timelines.
When summarizing a video, fetch subtitles first. Subtitles usually contain the video's core content and are the best primary source for…
Only fall back to --ai, comments, or audio extraction when subtitles are unavailable or clearly insufficient.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dbe2855. 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 script files (Python, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- uv
- jq
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:
- bilibili.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

Bilibili CLI loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 316 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~2k

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: warnings

The automated check found patterns that need a careful read before installing.

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

bilibili-cli Skill

A CLI tool for interacting with Bilibili (哔哩哔哩). Use it to fetch video info, search content, browse user profiles, and perform interactions like liking or triple-clicking.

Agent Defaults

When you need machine-readable output:

Prefer --yaml first because it is usually more token-efficient than pretty JSON.
Use --json only when downstream tooling strictly requires JSON.
Keep result sets small with --max, --page, or --offset.
Prefer specific commands over broad ones. Example: use bili user-videos 946974 --max 3 --yaml instead of fetching large timelines.
When summarizing a video, fetch subtitles first. Subtitles usually contain the video's core content and are the best primary source for summaries.
Only fall back to --ai, comments, or audio extraction when subtitles are unavailable or clearly insufficient.

Prerequisites

bash

# Install (requires Python 3.10+)
uv tool install bilibili-cli
# Or: pipx install bilibili-cli

# If you need audio extraction support (requires PyAV)
uv tool install "bilibili-cli[audio]"
# Or: pipx install "bilibili-cli[audio]"

# Upgrade to latest (recommended to avoid API errors)
uv tool upgrade bilibili-cli
# Or: pipx upgrade bilibili-cli

Authentication

Most read commands work without login. Subtitles, favorites/following/watch-later/history, feed, and interactions require login.

bash

bili status                    # Check if logged in (exit 0 = yes, 1 = no)
bili login                     # QR code login (if not authenticated)

Authentication auto-detects local browser cookies (Chrome/Firefox/Edge/Brave). If cookies are found and valid, no manual login needed. Credentials are saved to ~/.bilibili-cli/credential.json.

bili dynamic-post "hello"      # Publish text dynamic (requires write credential)
bili dynamic-delete 123456789  # Delete one dynamic (requires write credential)

bili watch-later               # Watch later list
bili history                   # Watch history

Audio Extraction

Requires bilibili-cli[audio] extra (PyAV). Install with uv tool install "bilibili-cli[audio]".

bash

# Download audio and split into ASR-ready WAV segments (25s each, 16kHz mono)
bili audio BV1ABcsztEcY                 # Split to /tmp/bilibili-cli/{title}/
bili audio BV1ABcsztEcY --segment 60    # 60s per segment

bili triple BV1ABcsztEcY       # 一键三连 (like + coin + favorite)
bili unfollow 946974           # Unfollow by UID

Account

bash

bili status                    # Quick login check
bili status --yaml             # Structured auth status
bili whoami                    # Detailed profile info
bili whoami --yaml              # Profile as YAML
bili whoami --json              # Profile as JSON
bili login                     # QR code login
bili logout                    # Clear credentials

Structured Output

Major query commands support both --yaml and --json for machine-readable output. Prefer YAML for agent use:

bash

bili status --yaml                                # Quick structured auth check
bili video BV1ABcsztEcY --yaml                       # Preferred for AI agents
bili hot --max 5 --yaml                             # Smaller, token-efficient payload
bili user 946974 --json | jq -r '.data.user.name'   # JSON when jq is needed

When stdout is not a TTY, bilibili-cli defaults to YAML automatically. Use OUTPUT=yaml|json|rich|auto to override the default output mode. All machine-readable output uses the envelope documented in SCHEMA.md.

Debugging

bash

bili -v <command>              # Enable verbose/debug logging for any command

Common Patterns for AI Agents

bash

# For video summarization, fetch subtitles first
bili video BV1ABcsztEcY --subtitle

# Only use AI summary as a fallback or secondary signal
bili video BV1ABcsztEcY --ai

# Get comments for sentiment analysis
bili video BV1ABcsztEcY --comments

# Extract audio for speech-to-text (ASR)
# Segments are saved to /tmp/bilibili-cli/{title}/seg_000.wav, seg_001.wav, ...
bili audio BV1ABcsztEcY --segment 25

# Find a user's latest video BV ID with minimal payload
bili user-videos 946974 --max 1 --yaml

# Check if logged in before performing actions
bili status && bili like BV1ABcsztEcY

# Search and inspect the first few results
bili search "topic" --type video --max 3 --yaml

Workflow: Video Content Analysis

bash

# 1. Search for a topic
bili search "AI" --type video --max 5

# 2. Get subtitles first for summarization
bili video BV1xxx --subtitle

# 3. If subtitles are missing or incomplete, try AI summary
bili video BV1xxx --ai

# 4. If there is still not enough content, extract audio for ASR
bili audio BV1xxx --segment 25

# 5. Get comments for audience reaction
bili video BV1xxx --comments

Workflow: UP主 Research

bash

# 1. Look up UP主 profile
bili user "影视飓风"

# 2. Get their recent videos
bili user-videos 946974 --max 10

# 3. Inspect a specific video
bili video BV1xxx --ai --comments

Error Handling

Commands exit with code 0 on success, non-zero on failure
Error messages are prefixed with ❌
Login-required commands show ⚠️ with instruction to run bili login
Invalid BV IDs show a clear error message

Safety Notes

Do not ask users to share raw credential/cookie values in chat logs.
Prefer local browser cookie extraction over manual secret copy/paste.
If auth fails, ask the user to re-login via bili login.
