threads-auth

threads-auth is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gaojiongwenv587-beep/threads-skills. It costs 83 tokens per session (905 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for managing Threads login sessions and multiple accounts through Chrome. Threads uses an Instagram account for login, and the saved browser session can be reused.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start the required Chrome session, log in, check whether an account is signed in, remove saved cookies, and add or switch between accounts.
Why use it?
It avoids logging in repeatedly and keeps different account sessions separate.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

threads-auth scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

threads-auth — 认证管理

管理 Threads 登录状态与多账号切换。

前置条件:Chrome 必须先启动

所有命令依赖 Chrome 调试端口,使用前确认 Chrome 已运行:

# 启动 Chrome(默认端口 8666)
python scripts/chrome_launcher.py

# 已有实例时强制重启
python scripts/chrome_launcher.py --restart

Chrome 启动后会保持运行,无需每次重启。

登录说明

Threads 使用 Instagram 账号登录,Cookie 持久化在 ~/.threads/chrome-profile/登录一次长期有效,无需重复登录。

命令

检查登录状态

python scripts/cli.py check-login

实测返回(用户名提取有时失败,以 logged_in 字段为准):

{ "logged_in": true, "username": null, "message": "已登录(用户名获取失败)" }
{ "logged_in": false, "username": null, "message": "未登录,请执行 login 命令" }

登录

python scripts/cli.py login

执行后浏览器自动打开登录页,用户在浏览器中手动输入 Instagram 账号密码完成登录,Cookie 自动保存。登录完成后用 check-login 确认。

退出 / 切换账号

python scripts/cli.py delete-cookies

清除当前账号 Cookie,执行后需重新 login

多账号管理

每个账号使用独立的 Chrome Profile 和调试端口(从 8667 递增),账号间完全隔离。

# 添加账号(自动分配端口)
python scripts/cli.py add-account --name "work" --description "工作号"

# 列出所有账号(含端口号)
python scripts/cli.py list-accounts

# 指定账号执行任意命令
python scripts/cli.py --account work check-login
python scripts/cli.py --account work post-thread --content "..."

# 设置默认账号
python scripts/cli.py set-default-account --name "work"

# 删除账号
python scripts/cli.py remove-account --name "work"

决策逻辑

  1. 其他操作报错"未登录" → 先 check-login,未登录则引导执行 login
  2. 用户说"检查登录"check-login
  3. 用户说"登录"login,提示在浏览器完成后确认
  4. 用户说"退出"/"切换账号"delete-cookieslogin
  5. 用户说"换个号操作"--account <name> 参数,无需切换 Cookie

失败处理

错误 原因 处理
连接 Chrome 失败 Chrome 未启动或端口错误 运行 python scripts/chrome_launcher.py
logged_in: false Cookie 过期或未登录 执行 login
登录页卡住 可能需要 2FA 或验证码 引导用户在浏览器中手动处理

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
