Apidojo Social Media Skills - Setup Guide¶

Source: skills.sh (3 skills, ~8,000 combined installs) GitHub: apidojo-io/social-media-skills (Apache-2.0 per README, pushed Sep 2, 2026) Category: Social Media / Data Extraction First Seen: Sep 10, 2026 sweep (cluster surfaced via failed-query compensation - the recurring social media / content collector-query failures) Quality Tier: 🟡 Unverified (no skills.sh security audits published for this publisher)

A 3-skill suite that turns an agent into a social data extractor backed by Apify actors - no proxies, no login handling, just token-authenticated API calls that return structured JSON. Each skill is a single SKILL.md in standard Agent Skills format (name / description / version frontmatter) with sync and async curl patterns for the corresponding Apify actor. Platform-agnostic: works with any agent that can run npx skills add or read a SKILL.md.

Installation¶

Install all three skills:

npx skills add apidojo-io/social-media-skills

Install a single skill:

npx skills add apidojo-io/social-media-skills --skill x-scraper

List available skills first:

npx skills add apidojo-io/social-media-skills --list

For Hermes Agent, copy the skill folders into the agent's skills directory from a clone:

git clone https://github.com/apidojo-io/social-media-skills.git
cp -r social-media-skills/skills/* ~/.hermes/skills/

Prerequisites¶

Requirement	Details
Apify paid plan	All three actors reject API calls on the free plan - sign up and subscribe first
APIFY_TOKEN	From console.apify.com/account/integrations; `export APIFY_TOKEN="apify_api_..."`
curl / wget + jq	For the sync and async run patterns in the SKILL.md files

Skill Roster¶

Skill	Installs	Platform	What It Extracts
`x-scraper`	2,716	X (Twitter)	Tweets by search query, profile, hashtag, keyword, conversation thread, date range, or list - uses Twitter advanced search syntax via the `searchTerms` input
`instagram-scraper`	2,679	Instagram	Posts, reels, hashtags, locations, comments, profiles, followers
`tiktok-scraper`	2,631	TikTok	Videos, profiles, hashtags, music, comments, location-based posts

Quick Start¶

Install the skills and export APIFY_TOKEN
Ask for data - "fetch the last 50 tweets from @NASA" - the agent invokes x-scraper with the sync pattern (short runs return dataset items directly; runs beyond 300s switch to the async start → poll → fetch-dataset pattern)
Every request passes a "skill": true field that returns the raw extraction in structured form instead of a summary

CorpusIQ Use Cases¶

Use Case	How
Social mining	`x-scraper` pulls operator conversations by search query, profile, and hashtag - help-first engagement targets without manual browsing
Competitor monitoring	Scheduled hashtag / keyword pulls across X, Instagram, and TikTok feed competitive intelligence into research sweeps
Creator & UGC research	`instagram-scraper` + `tiktok-scraper` gather profiles, engagement, and content for creator-partnership vetting
Lead intel	Profile, comment, and follower data support outbound research before first contact

Limitations / Verification¶

Paid prerequisite: every skill requires an Apify paid plan - API calls on the free tier are rejected. Budget before adopting.
No published security audits: as of Sep 10, 2026 the skills.sh page renders no Trust Hub / Socket / Snyk verdicts for this publisher. The three SKILL.md files are short, single-purpose API-pattern documents - manual review takes minutes.
Young repo: created Mar 2026, 1 GitHub star - install traction comes from skills.sh, not GitHub. Repo pushed Sep 2, 2026 (active).
Affiliate links: README Apify links carry a referral tag (fpr=yhdrb); the skills themselves are Apache-2.0 (GitHub API license field is empty; README states Apache-2.0).
Data rights: scraped platform data usage is the operator's responsibility - respect platform terms for any public redistribution.
