Xiaohongshu Browser Research

Use this skill when the user needs consumer-facing or lifestyle-platform attention signals that do not show up in market news or traditional social APIs.

Workflow

1. Prefer xiaohongshu_cli when available.
   • for brand heat or sentiment requests, start with exactly one search: xiaohongshu_cli(operation="search", keyword="lululemon", sort="popular")
   • if freshness matters, follow with at most one more search: xiaohongshu_cli(operation="search", keyword="lululemon", sort="latest")
   • hot board: xiaohongshu_cli(operation="hot", category="fashion") only when the user explicitly asks for broader category heat
   • note detail: xiaohongshu_cli(operation="read", target="<note-url-or-id>")
   • comments: xiaohongshu_cli(operation="comments", target="<note-url-or-id>", fetch_all=true)
2. If xiaohongshu_cli is unavailable, use browser_site with Xiaohongshu adapters that exist in the runtime catalog. Prefer exact adapters such as:
   • xiaohongshu/search
   • xiaohongshu/hot
3. Read references/adapter-examples.md when you need concrete adapter call patterns or fallback behavior.
4. Extract:
   • product or brand heat
   • recurring user narratives
   • demand or preference signals
5. Pair with social-signal-browser when retail attention is part of the thesis.

Rules

• Prefer xiaohongshu_cli over browser_site for Xiaohongshu note search, note reads, and comments because it exposes richer structured output.
• For default brand-analysis requests, do not call status first. Only call status after a prior xiaohongshu_cli call reports an authentication or access failure.
• Do not call topics unless the user explicitly asks for topic trend discovery or related-query mining.
• For ordinary heat/sentiment analysis, stop after search(popular) or search(popular) + search(latest). Synthesize from those results instead of continuing to probe.
• If xiaohongshu_cli returns structured ok: true data, stop there and synthesize the answer from that data. Do not switch to exec, browser_site, or ad hoc file inspection for the same request.
• Use browser_site only when xiaohongshu_cli is unavailable or returns an actual access failure for the requested read path.
• Do not inspect ~/.xiaohongshu* files with exec; rely on xiaohongshu_cli output instead.
• Do not invent undocumented xiaohongshu/* adapters. If the runtime catalog does not expose the adapter you need, say so and continue with the closest listed adapter.
• Treat Xiaohongshu as consumer-attention context, not direct proof of revenue or sell-through.
• Separate brand buzz from transaction data.
