name: douyin-dl description: | Download Douyin (抖音) videos via the TikHub API — no login required.
USE THIS SKILL whenever the user: - Shares a Douyin link (v.douyin.com, douyin.com, or any URL containing "douyin") - Pastes a modal_id or aweme_id (16–19 digit number) - Says "下载视频", "帮我下载", "save this video", "download this douyin" - Shares a short-link like "复制链接" text containing v.douyin.com - Asks to save, grab, or fetch a Douyin clip
Always use this skill when you detect a Douyin URL or a numeric video ID — even if the user doesn't explicitly say "download". Just seeing a v.douyin.com link is enough.
DO NOT USE FOR: - YouTube, Bilibili, Instagram, or other platforms (use their respective tools) - Douyin live streams (not supported by the API) - Douyin image carousels / 图集 (video-only)
