Automate content operations on Xiaohongshu (小红书) using a bundled Python script that interacts with the xpzouying/xiaohongshu-mcp server (8.4k+ stars).

Project: xpzouying/xiaohongshu-mcp

1. Local Server Setup

This skill requires the xiaohongshu-mcp server to be running on your local machine.

Step 1: Download Binaries

Download the appropriate binaries for your system from the GitHub Releases page.

Platform	MCP Server	Login Tool
macOS (Apple Silicon)	`xiaohongshu-mcp-darwin-arm64`	`xiaohongshu-login-darwin-arm64`
macOS (Intel)	`xiaohongshu-mcp-darwin-amd64`	`xiaohongshu-login-darwin-amd64`
Windows	`xiaohongshu-mcp-windows-amd64.exe`	`xiaohongshu-login-windows-amd64.exe`
Linux	`xiaohongshu-mcp-linux-amd64`	`xiaohongshu-login-linux-amd64`

Grant execute permission to the downloaded files:

chmod +x xiaohongshu-mcp-darwin-arm64 xiaohongshu-login-darwin-arm64

Step 2: Login (First Time Only)

Run the login tool. It will open a browser window with a QR code. Scan it with your Xiaohongshu mobile app.

./xiaohongshu-login-darwin-arm64

Important: Do not log into the same Xiaohongshu account on any other web browser, as this will invalidate the server's session.

Step 3: Start the MCP Server

Run the MCP server in a separate terminal window. It will run in the background.

# Run in headless mode (recommended)
./xiaohongshu-mcp-darwin-arm64

# Or, run with a visible browser for debugging
./xiaohongshu-mcp-darwin-arm64 -headless=false

The server will be available at http://localhost:18060.

2. Using the Skill

This skill includes a Python client (scripts/xhs_client.py) to interact with the local server. You can use it directly from the shell.

Available Commands

Command	Description	Example
`status`	Check login status	`python scripts/xhs_client.py status`
`search <keyword>`	Search for notes	`python scripts/xhs_client.py search "咖啡"`
`detail <id> <token>`	Get note details	`python scripts/xhs_client.py detail "note_id" "xsec_token"`
`feeds`	Get recommended feed	`python scripts/xhs_client.py feeds`
`publish <title> <content> <images>`	Publish a note	`python scripts/xhs_client.py publish "Title" "Content" "url1,url2"`

Example Workflow: Market Research

Check Status: First, ensure the server is running and you are logged in.
```
python ~/clawd/skills/xiaohongshu-mcp/scripts/xhs_client.py status
```
Search for a Keyword: Find notes related to your research topic. The output will include the feed_id and xsec_token needed for the next step.
```
python ~/clawd/skills/xiaohongshu-mcp/scripts/xhs_client.py search "户外电源"
```
Get Note Details: Use the feed_id and xsec_token from the search results to get the full content and comments of a specific note.
```
python ~/clawd/skills/xiaohongshu-mcp/scripts/xhs_client.py detail "64f1a2b3c4d5e6f7a8b9c0d1" "security_token_here"
```
Analyze: Review the note's content, comments, and engagement data to gather insights.
