What the dsh-mediacrawler DSH plugin can do

Installs as a DSH profile bundle with a Cordis patch, MCP client, and packaged mediacrawler-collector Skill.
Provides 12 MCP tools for runtime checks, bounded collection, run status, logs, artifacts, previews, export, stopping, and retention.
Supports search, post/video details, creator feeds, and opt-in comments across Xiaohongshu, Douyin, Kuaishou, Bilibili, Weibo, Tieba, and Zhihu.
Persists supervised runs and supports recovery of recent run IDs after restart or context loss.
Uses isolated Chrome profiles by default and supports existing CDP only through explicit opt-in.
Creates credential-redacted ZIP exports with configurable raw-data size limits.

Where the dsh-mediacrawler DSH plugin fits

Collecting logged-in platform records or creator feeds not available through web search providers.
Running a bounded, reproducible MediaCrawler job from a DeepSeek Harness session.
Polling QR-code login-dependent runs and reviewing durable artifacts.
Exporting collection results while redacting known credential fields.

Who the dsh-mediacrawler DSH plugin is for

DeepSeek Harness users with a working local MediaCrawler checkout.
Developers and researchers who need supervised, bounded social-platform collection workflows.
Users able to configure Python, Node.js, Chrome, and platform login interactively.

dsh-mediacrawler DSH plugin limitations

Requires separate installation and configuration of MediaCrawler, its Python environment, Google Chrome, and DeepSeek Harness.
Requires Python 3.11+, supported Node.js versions, pnpm, and a separately configured MediaCrawler checkout.
Only QR-code login is accepted; the MCP API does not accept cookies, phone numbers, or verification codes.
Comments are disabled by default and must be enabled explicitly per run.
Does not bypass login, verification, rate limits, access controls, or anti-automation systems.
Credential redaction is not PII anonymization; exported content may still contain personal data.
Some upstream collection workflows may not strictly enforce max_items; timeout_minutes is the hard boundary.
v0.3.0 is tested with DSH 0.1.0-rc.6 and a specified upstream MediaCrawler commit.
