Content Research Skill

This skill provides agents with the ability to gather raw intelligence on social media performance (TikTok and Instagram) using the ScrapeCreators API. It does not generate content or interact with posting APIs.

Prerequisites

SCRAPE_CREATORS_API_KEY set in the environment

Capabilities

1. Broad Content Discovery (Keywords & Hashtags)

Use this to find top-performing content. Agent Instructions for Keyword Search:

DO NOT use the same hardcoded keyword (like "affirmations") every time.

ALWAYS brainstorm 3-5 diverse keywords based on the user's app (e.g., if it's an affirmation app, try searching "mindset shift", "daily routine", "self healing", "morning motivation").

Use time frames (--date-posted) to find recent trends, and test different sorting methods.

Use the --format filter (video, slideshow, or both) if the user specifically requests only one type of content.

CRITICAL: The script returns an is_slideshow boolean and a video_url. Use this to distinguish between video trends and slideshow trends.

uv run {baseDir}/scripts/keyword-search.py --platform tiktok --type keyword --query "morning routine" --date-posted this-month --sort-by most-liked --format slideshow
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/keyword-search.py --platform instagram --type keyword --query "morning routine" --format video

2. Competitor Hook Research

Use this to analyze specific competitor handles. Agent Instructions for Competitor Research:

ALWAYS ask the user if they have specific competitors or creator profiles they want you to check before you assume.

If they don't know, brainstorm potential top creators in their niche using the keyword search first, extract their handles, and then run competitor research on them.

uv run {baseDir}/scripts/competitor-research.py --platform tiktok --handles user1 user2 user3
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/competitor-research.py --platform instagram --handles user1 user2

3. Profile Lookup

Use this to get raw metric data (followers, following, bio) for a specific creator.

uv run {baseDir}/scripts/profile-lookup.py --platform tiktok --handle 
uv run {baseDir}/scripts/profile-lookup.py --platform instagram --handle
