Scrapecreators

scrapecreators

When To Use

Use when the user wants social media data scraped from Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, or X/Twitter — profiles, recent posts, tweets, company pages, hashtag searches, or trending content. Common contexts: influencer research, social listening, competitive analysis, content research, and lead generation. This is a multi-merchant skill: X/Twitter capabilities are via the SELAT Router SELAT-native calls (catalog.selat.ai, Circle Gateway-batched via the SELAT Router), while Instagram/TikTok (StableSocial) and LinkedIn (Clado) capabilities run as via the SELAT Router MPP payments through the SELAT Router. (The skill name is historical — it was originally backed by a single "Scrape Creators" merchant.)

Workflow

1. Install: selat skill install scrapecreators
2. Run: selat skill run scrapecreators [--handle openai] [--hashtag tech] [--tweetId ...] [--linkedinUrl ...] [--instagramHandle ...]
3. The CLI compiles each step in manifest.json into a selat-pay call — SELAT-native steps pay upstream Gateway-batched; StableSocial and Clado steps settle through the SELAT Router (MPP) — runs the steps in order, and prints a per-step ✓/✗ summary.

Only pass the params for the capabilities you actually need; unused steps still run against their defaults unless you scope the run.

Inputs And Outputs

Outputs: each step returns the merchant's JSON payload for that endpoint (profile objects, tweet/post arrays, company metadata, hashtag/search video lists). The CLI prints status and the response body per step.

Gotchas

• Mixed rails: the StableSocial and Clado steps settle via MPP on Tempo and need SELAT_ROUTER_URL configured with the SELAT Router reachable; the SELAT-native X/Twitter steps are through the SELAT Router.
• Per-step caps (maxAmount) are ~10x each live price ($0.10–$0.75; full-run fallback $0.75); live prices total ≈ $0.45 across all 12 steps (see references/endpoints.md).
• Handles must be passed without the leading @; hashtags without the leading #.
• Tweet details take a numeric tweet ID (tweetId), not a tweet URL.
• The LinkedIn steps expect a full URL and POST it as linkedin_url in the body via Clado.
• Instagram lookups are by handle — there is no numeric-userId or single-post-by-URL endpoint; the recent-posts step returns the handle's latest posts instead of one post.
• TikTok "trending" is served by StableSocial keyword search ({"query":"trending"}); there is no region-scoped trending-feed endpoint.
• Steps run independently (continue-across-steps): one capability can succeed while another fails — check the per-step summary.

Validation

--chain base in the probe commands below is only the flag selat-pay requires today — a probe reads a free, chain-independent quote and never settles. A real paid run resolves the settlement chain from your funded Circle Gateway balance, not the manifest.

• Probe without paying (free 402 probe per repo convention):
  • selat-pay GET "https://catalog.selat.ai/twitter/user/info?userName=openai" --chain base --probe-only
  • selat-pay POST "https://stablesocial.dev/api/tiktok/profile" --body '{"handle":"openai"}' --chain base --probe-only
  • selat-pay POST "https://clado.mpp.paywithlocus.com/clado/linkedin-profile" --body '{"linkedin_url":"https://linkedin.com/in/satyanadella"}' --chain base --probe-only
• A --probe-only call returns the 402 payment requirements without settling; a successful paid run prints status=200 and a ✓ for each step.
