douyin-mcp-server
Provides an Agent Skills/MCP-oriented server plus CLI scripts to automate Douyin (TikTok China) video uploads using browser automation (Chrome) and stored login cookies, including login management and optional auto-publishing.
Score Breakdown
⚙ Agent Friendliness
🔒 Security
Security posture is not fully evidenced from provided content. Authentication depends on stored Douyin cookies and browser data; README warns to protect Cookie files. No discussion of encryption at rest, secret redaction, or secure storage is provided. Using UI automation can increase the risk of unintended actions if selectors/flows drift. TLS/auth scope controls are not applicable as there is no documented HTTP API with scoped credentials.
⚡ Reliability
Best When
You want to integrate Douyin upload actions into an agent that can use the provided Skill definition, and you can tolerate occasional UI/verification/intermittent failures inherent to browser automation.
Avoid When
You need a stable, official API integration, fine-grained permissioning/scopes, or you cannot store/process cookies securely.
Use Cases
- • Automate publishing of Douyin videos from an AI agent or workflow
- • Manage Douyin login state (login, check cookie validity, clear cookies) for automation
- • Batch or scripted creation-and-upload flows where human login is performed once and then automation continues
Not For
- • Handling sensitive account credentials directly (it relies on saved cookies and requires a manual login flow)
- • Producing a public REST/SDK integration for developers who want an HTTP API
- • High-reliability production publishing without monitoring/retries, since it depends on UI automation and platform behavior changes
Interface
Authentication
Authentication is performed by manually logging into Douyin in a launched Chrome browser; cookies are then saved and reused. There is no OAuth/API-token flow described.
Pricing
Repository is MIT-licensed and appears to be a self-hosted automation tool; no pricing model is described in the provided content.
Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Relies on browser automation (Chrome) and manual human login/verification (including potential SMS verification on first upload).
- ⚠ Cookie expiry (~30 days per README) means agents must run login management/check flows.
- ⚠ Platform-side behavior (verification pages, review queues) can change UI flows and break automation.
- ⚠ Passing large absolute file paths and correct video format/dimensions is required; failures may manifest as stalled UI states.
