xiaohongshu-hub

xiaohongshu-hub is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OpenMinis/MinisSkills. It costs 190 tokens per session (2,788 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Python tool for reading and writing Xiaohongshu, a Chinese social platform for user posts, often called notes. It handles the request signing and browser-cookie authentication needed to access the platform.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search posts, users, and topics; read post details and comments; and perform the other supported Xiaohongshu data operations.
Why use it?
It removes much of the platform-specific setup required to access Xiaohongshu data programmatically. It also avoids manually copying login details in supported environments.

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

xiaohongshu-hub 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 6 executable files (scripts/__init__.py, scripts/client.py, scripts/constants.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

xiaohongshu-hub

Modified from: jackwener/xiaohongshu-cli (Apache-2.0)

This skill simplifies and modifies the original repository as follows:

  • Removes the browser-cookie3 / click / rich / PyYAML / qrcode dependencies
  • Changes Cookie authentication to pass a dict directly or read from environment variables, without automatic browser extraction
  • Removes the CLI layer (commands/) and QR login module (qr_login.py)
  • Keeps the complete reverse-engineered signing algorithm in signing.py, implemented with the standard library only and no third-party dependencies
  • Keeps AES-128-CBC signing in creator_signing.py (depends on pycryptodome)
  • In the Minis environment, cookies are automatically retrieved through browser_use get_cookies

Authentication Methods

The Xiaohongshu Web API uses three key cookies:

Cookie Description
a1 User identity identifier and core signing algorithm parameter (required)
web_session Login session (required)
webId Device ID (recommended)

Method 1: Automatically Retrieve with browser_use (Preferred in the Minis Environment)

In Minis, you can use the browser_use tool to navigate to Xiaohongshu, then use get_cookies to read the cookies automatically. Raw Cookie values will not appear in the conversation. They are passed securely through an offload env file.

Changes

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.
