# Social Media Finder Skill

## 📖 Brief
This skill automates the discovery of social media accounts associated with individuals, brands, or businesses across multiple platforms. By providing a name, it searches across Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and more — extracting profile URLs, usernames, follower counts, and bio snippets in one go. The results are returned as a downloadable CSV file.

## ✨ Features
1. **No Hallucinations**: Pre-set workflows avoid AI generative hallucinations, ensuring stable and precise data extraction.
2. **No Captcha Issues**: No need to handle reCAPTCHA or other verification challenges.
3. **No IP Restrictions**: No need to handle regional IP restrictions or geofencing.
4. **Faster Execution**: Tasks execute faster compared to pure AI-driven browser automation solutions.
5. **Cost-Effective**: Significantly lowers data acquisition costs compared to high-token-consuming AI solutions.

## 🔑 API Key Setup
Before running, check the `BROWSERACT_API_KEY` environment variable. If not set, do not take other measures; ask and wait for the user to provide it.
**Agent must inform the user**:
> "Since you haven't configured the BrowserAct API Key yet, please visit the [BrowserAct Console](https://www.browseract.com/reception/integrations) to get your Key."

## 🛠️ Input Parameters
The agent should configure the following parameter based on user requirements:

1. **People_Name**
   - **Required**: Yes
   - **Type**: `string`
   - **Description**: The name of the person or brand to search for. Use `+` between words for better results.
   - **Example**: `John+Smith`, `Tesla`, `Bill+Gates`
   - **Default**: `Mike+Smith`

## 🚀 Invocation Method
Agent should execute the following command to invoke the skill:

```bash
# Example invocation
python -u ./scripts/social_media_finder.py "John+Smith"
```

### ⏳ Execution Monitoring
Since this task involves automated browser operations, it may take several minutes. The script outputs **timestamped status logs** continuously (e.g., `[14:30:05] Task Status: running`).
**Agent guidelines**:
- Monitor the terminal output while waiting.
- As long as new status logs appear, the task is running normally; do not misjudge it as frozen.
- Only consider triggering retry if the status remains unchanged for a long time or output stops without a final result.

## 📊 Data Output
Upon successful execution, the script retrieves a JSON object containing a `files` array with a download link to a CSV file. The CSV includes the following structured profile data:
- `Platform name`: The social media platform (e.g., LinkedIn, Twitter).
- `Followers count`: The number of followers.
- `Page title`: The title of the profile page.
- `Description snippet`: The bio or description snippet.
- `Profile URL`: The direct link to the social media profile.

## ⚠️ Error Handling & Retry
If an error occurs during script execution (e.g., network fluctuations or task failure), the Agent should follow this logic:

1. **Check Output Content**:
   - If the output **contains** `"Invalid authorization"`, it means the API Key is invalid or expired. **Do not retry**; guide the user to re-check and provide the correct API Key.
   - If the output **contains** `"concurrent"` or `"too many running tasks"`, it means the concurrent task limit has been reached. **Do not retry**; guide the user to upgrade their plan.
     **Agent must inform the user**:
     > "The current task cannot be executed because your BrowserAct account has reached the concurrent task limit. Please visit the [BrowserAct Plan Upgrade Page](https://www.browseract.com/reception/recharge) to upgrade your plan."
   - If the output **does not contain the above error keywords** but the task failed (e.g., output starts with `Error:` or returns empty results), the Agent should **automatically re-execute the script once**.

2. **Retry Limit**:
   - Automatic retry is limited to **one time**. If the second attempt fails, stop retrying and report the specific error to the user.

## 🌟 Typical Use Cases
1. **Background Research**: Find social media profiles of job candidates or new connections.
2. **Lead Generation**: Gather contact information and social profiles for sales prospects.
3. **Competitive Intelligence**: Discover the social media footprint of competitors.
4. **Influencer Discovery**: Locate content creators across various platforms.
5. **Brand Monitoring**: Check a brand's presence across different social networks.
6. **Reconnecting**: Find old friends or colleagues online.
7. **Identity Verification**: Cross-reference profiles of people met online.
8. **Customer Support**: Find official brand accounts for reaching out.
9. **Networking**: Research event attendees or potential business partners.
10. **Digital Footprint Audit**: Monitor one's own public social media presence.
