'Web scraping plus social data: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram (incl. stories, followers, likers, hashtags),.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## Preferred entry: call exports.py (don't hand-roll requests)
Ready-made helpers live in `skills/web-crawler/exports.py`. Prefer them over
writing your own `proxied_get`/`proxied_post` calls — they already inject the
proxy credentials, so **there is no API key to find** (don't read
`$SCRAPECREATORS_API_KEY` / `$FIRECRAWL_API_KEY`, don't check `.env`, don't ask
the user).
```python
import sys; sys.path.insert(0, "/data/workspace/skills/web-crawler")
from exports import scrape_markdown, youtube_transcript, sc_get
scrape_markdown("https://example.com/article") # Firecrawl fallback
youtube_transcript("https://youtube.com/watch?v=ID") # ScrapeCreators
youtube_video("https://youtube.com/watch?v=ID") # metadata: title/description/uploader (+ transcript)
sc_get("/v1/tiktok/profile", handle="charlidamelio") # any SC endpoint
from exports import archive_fallback # paywall / Firecrawl-403
archive_fallback("https://www.nytimes.com/.../article.html") # archive snapshot
```
### Transcript route — ONE entry for any media link
```python
from core.skill_tools import web_crawler
r = web_crawler.get_transcript(url, caller_id="chat:<thread>")

How to install
mdr add starchild-ai-agent/official-skills/web-crawler@sha256:09561585f0d12fc1The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.15.2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
