What it does

Douyin is an agent skill from sigcli/sigcli. Provide authenticated cookies for Douyin (抖音/TikTok China) — two providers: douyin (www.douyin.com for scraping) and douyin-live (live.douyin.com for livestream). Use this skill whenever the user needs Douyin cookies for scraping tools like DouYinSpider, or needs to authenticate with Douyin services. Trigger when the user mentions 抖音, Douyin, TikTok China, douyin cookies, or wants to use tools that require Douyin login cookies.

Its SKILL.md is about 700 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/provider-config.yaml`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Web scraping. It works with Douyin and TikTok. The repository describes itself as: The authentication CLI & Proxy for AI agents. Give agents access, not your credentials. The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9ba8b35. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- python
- git
- pip
- npm
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:
- github.com
- douyin.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

Douyin loads about 696 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 110 tokens; SKILL.md has 136 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~110
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~696
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them: ~1.1k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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.

description: Provide authenticated cookies for Douyin (抖音/TikTok China) — two providers: douyin (www.douyin.com for scraping) and douyin-live (live.douyin.com for livestream). Use this skill whenever the user needs Douyin cookies for scraping tools like DouYin_Spider, or needs to authenticate with Douyin services. Trigger when the user mentions 抖音, Douyin, TikTok China, douyin cookies, or wants to use tools that require Douyin login cookies.

This skill provides authenticated cookies for Douyin (抖音) via sigcli. It produces two sets of cookies for different domains:

Provider	Domain	Use case
`douyin`	www.douyin.com	Data scraping (videos, users, search, comments)
`douyin-live`	live.douyin.com	Livestream monitoring (弹幕, gifts, WebSocket)

Setup

1. Configure providers

Add the config from references/provider-config.yaml to ~/.sig/config.yaml under providers:.

bash

sig login douyin        # Opens browser, scan QR code with Douyin app
sig login douyin-live   # Same — captures live.douyin.com cookies

3. Verify

bash

sig status douyin
sig status douyin-live
# Both should show: valid: true

Usage with DouYin_Spider

Once cookies are obtained, use DouYin_Spider for data scraping and livestream monitoring:

bash

# Install DouYin_Spider
git clone https://github.com/cv-cat/DouYin_Spider.git
cd DouYin_Spider
pip install -r requirements.txt && npm install

# Write cookies to .env
echo "DY_COOKIES='$(sig get douyin --no-redaction --format value)'" > .env
echo "DY_LIVE_COOKIES='$(sig get douyin-live --no-redaction --format value)'" >> .env

# Run
python main.py              # Data scraping
python dy_live/server.py    # Livestream monitoring
python dy_apis/douyin_recv_msg.py  # Private message receiving

Get cookies

bash

# www.douyin.com cookie (for scraping)
sig get douyin --no-redaction --format value

# live.douyin.com cookie (for livestream)
sig get douyin-live --no-redaction --format value

Validation

The validateRule uses Douyin's notification count API:

Endpoint: https://www.douyin.com/aweme/v1/web/notice/count/
Logged in: {"status_code": 0, "notice_count": [...]}
Not logged in: {"status_code": 8, "status_msg": "用户未登录"}
Rule: res.body.status_code === 0

Notes

Douyin requires visible browser login (QR code scan) — loginMode: visible
Cookies from .douyin.com parent domain are shared between www and live subdomains
TTL is set to 2h; use sig watch add douyin for auto-refresh
