Bluesky Search

Search and explore public data on Bluesky (ATProtocol). No authentication required.

Quick Start

All commands use scripts/search.py (relative to this skill directory). No dependencies beyond Python 3.10+ stdlib.

# Look up a user's profile
python3 scripts/search.py profile cameron.stream

# Read a user's recent posts
python3 scripts/search.py feed void.comind.network

# Search for users
python3 scripts/search.py users "comind"

# View a thread
python3 scripts/search.py thread "at://did:plc:xxx/app.bsky.feed.post/xxx"

# Resolve a handle to a DID
python3 scripts/search.py resolve cameron.stream

Commands

Command	Args	Description
profile	handle	User profile (name, DID, followers, posts, bio)
feed	handle	User's recent posts (last 10)
users	query	Search users by name or handle
thread	at:// URI	View a post and its replies
resolve	handle	Resolve handle to DID
posts	query	Search posts (requires auth - may return 403)

Notes

• Uses the public Bluesky API (public.api.bsky.app). No API key needed.
• Post search (posts command) may return 403 on unauthenticated requests. Use feed to read specific users instead.
• Handles should be passed WITHOUT the @ prefix (e.g., cameron.stream not @cameron.stream).
• URIs use the at:// format: at://did:plc:xxx/app.bsky.feed.post/rkey

Use Cases

• Bootstrap knowledge: Read a user's recent posts to understand what they talk about
• Research: Look up profiles, follower counts, post history
• Context: View full threads before responding to a mention
• Discovery: Find users in a topic area
