Quick Start
import json
from pathlib import Path
from src.chrome_client import LineChromeClient
tokens = json.loads((Path.home() / ".line-client" / "tokens.json").read_text())
client = LineChromeClient(auth_token=tokens["auth_token"])
# Send a message
client.send_message("U...", "Hello!")
# Get profile
profile = client.get_profile()
Tokens expire in ~7 days. If expired (APIError(10051)), re-run QR login.
QR Login (Authentication)
QR login requires user interaction: scan QR on phone + enter PIN.
from src.hmac import HmacSigner
from src.auth.qr_login import QRLogin
import qrcode
signer = HmacSigner(mode="server")
login = QRLogin(signer)
result = login.run(
url: send_qr_image_to_user(qrcode.make(url)),
pin: send_pin_to_user_IMMEDIATELY(pin), # TIME SENSITIVE!
msg: print(msg),
)
# result.auth_token, result.mid, result.refresh_token
Critical: The PIN must reach the user within ~60 seconds. Send it the instant on_pin fires.
QR Login State Machine
createSession → session IDcreateQrCode → callback URL (append ?secret={curve25519_pubkey}&e2eeVersion=1)checkQrCodeVerified — poll until scan (uses X-Line-Session-ID, no origin header)verifyCertificate — MUST be called even if it fails (required state transition!)createPinCode → 6-digit PIN (skip if cert verified in step 4)checkPinCodeVerified — poll until user enters PINqrCodeLoginV2 → JWT token + certificate + refresh token
Server-Side Login Script
python scripts/qr_login_server.py /tmp/qr.png
Emits JSON events on stdout: {"event": "qr", "path": "...", "url": "..."}, {"event": "pin", "pin": "123456"}, {"event": "done", "mid": "U..."}.

MID Format
LINE identifies entities by MID:
U... or u... → User (toType=0)C... or c... → Group chat (toType=2)R... or r... → Room (toType=1)
The client auto-detects toType from the MID prefix when sending messages.
HMAC Signing
All API calls require X-Hmac header. The WASM signer handles this automatically:
- Derives key from version "3.7.1" + access token via proprietary KDF (in lstm.wasm)
- Signs
path + body → base64 → X-Hmac
- Server mode: ~13ms/sign (Node.js HTTP server on port 18944, auto-started)
- Subprocess mode: ~2s/sign (fallback)
Error Handling
from src.chrome_client import APIError
try:
client.send_message(mid, "test")
except APIError as e:
print(e.code, e.api_message)
# 10051 = session expired / invalid
# 10052 = HTTP error from backend
# 10102 = invalid arguments
