When you or another skill needs to fetch the content of a social media post by URL — tweet, X thread, LinkedIn post, Instagram post, TikTok video, Bluesky post, Reddit thread, Mastodon status, Threads post, Hacker News thread. Returns normalized structured data (author, posted_at, text, engagement counts, media URLs, replies if requested) regardless of platform. Tries strategies in order: direct API (Bluesky, Mastodon, HN, Reddit), agent-browser with modal dismissal (LinkedIn, X preview)…

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

# /social-fetch — Pull any social post by URL

Normalized fetcher for social posts across platforms. Detects platform from URL, tries strategies in order, returns the same JSON shape regardless of source.

## Step 1 — Detect platform

| URL pattern | Platform |
|---|---|
| `x.com/<user>/status/<id>` or `twitter.com/<user>/status/<id>` | **x** (Twitter) |
| `linkedin.com/posts/<slug>` or `linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:<id>` | **linkedin** |
| `linkedin.com/in/<handle>` (profile, recent activity) | **linkedin-profile** |
| `instagram.com/p/<id>` or `instagram.com/reel/<id>` | **instagram** |
| `tiktok.com/@<user>/video/<id>` | **tiktok** |
| `bsky.app/profile/<handle>/post/<rkey>` | **bluesky** |
| `reddit.com/r/<sub>/comments/<id>/...` | **reddit** |
| `<mastodon-instance>/@<user>/<id>` (e.g. mastodon.social, hachyderm.io) | **mastodon** |
| `threads.net/@<user>/post/<id>` | **threads** |
| `news.ycombinator.com/item?id=<id>` | **hn** |
| `youtube.com/watch?v=<id>` or `youtu.be/<id>` | → defer to `watch-video` |

If the URL doesn't match any pattern, ask the user what platform it is.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add coreyhaines31/makerskills/social-fetch@sha256:bc1ca784180286c0

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.2, 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.
