# Threads — User Posts
> username → list of public posts with engagement metrics (SSR + scroll pagination)
## Language
All process output to user (progress updates, process notifications) follows the user's language.
## Objective
Extract public posts from a given Threads user's profile page using SSR-embedded JSON data, with optional scroll-triggered pagination to load more posts.
## Prerequisites
- A browser is open and connected via browser-act
- **Login recommended**: Threads enforces a login wall on profile pages in most regions as of mid-2026. A logged-in browser session is required for reliable access. Unauthenticated access via US-based proxies may work in some configurations but is not guaranteed.
## Pre-execution Checks
### 1. Tool Readiness
If browser-act has been confirmed available in the current session → skip this step.
Invoke `browser-act` via Skill tool to load usage. If installation or configuration issues arise, follow its guidance to resolve then retry.
### 2. Login Verification
If login status for Threads has been confirmed in the current session → skip this step.
Otherwise: `navigate https://www.threads.com` and check page state:
- User avatar or username visible at top → logged in, continue
- "Log in" / "Sign up" buttons visible → not logged in, inform the user that login is needed, assist completing the login flow via the Threads login page
If not logged in and user cannot log in → the capability may still work on some proxy/IP configurations; attempt `navigate https://www.threads.com/@{username}` and check if profile content loads. If the page redirects to `/login/`, terminate and inform the user that a logged-in session is required.
## Capability Components
> This Skill's operational boundary = what the user can manually do in their browser. It only reads data already displayed to the user on the page. JS code is encapsulated in Python files under the `scripts/` directory, invoked via `eval "$(python scripts/xxx.py {params})"`. `$(...)` is bash syntax; it is recommended to use the bash tool for execution.
### SSR: Extract posts from profile page (initial load)
Navigate to the user's profile page first, then extract all posts embedded in the initial page HTML:
1. `navigate https://www.threads.com/@{username}`
2. `wait stable`
3. `eval "$(python scripts/extract-posts.py)"`
Output example:
```json
{
"posts": [
{
"id": "3936653356768062022", // post internal ID (pk)
"code": "DKmzN8wJzFG", // post short code for URL
"url": "https://www.threads.com/@zuck/post/DKmzN8wJzFG", // direct post link
"text": "Excited to share...", // post text content, null if no caption
"taken_at": 1780953646, // Unix timestamp of post creation
"like_count": 3583, // number of likes
"reply_count": 3039, // number of direct replies
"repost_count": 232, // number of reposts
"quote_count": 114, // number of quote posts
"reshare_count": 460, // number of reshares
"is_reply": false, // true if this post is a reply to another
"media_type": 19, // 1=photo, 2=video, 8=carousel, 19=text-only
"has_media": false, // true if post contains image/video/carousel
"user": {
"pk": "63055343223", // Threads-specific user ID
"username": "zuck",
"full_name": "Mark Zuckerberg",
"is_verified": true
}
}
],
"count": 4, // number of posts in this batch
"page_info": {
"end_cursor": "QVFES...", // cursor for next page (null when no more)
"has_next_page": true, // whether more posts are available
"has_previous_page": false,
"start_cursor": null
}
}
```
Error handling: If `error: true` is returned, check that the profile page was fully loaded (`navigate` and `wait stable` completed without timeout). If `mediaData not found`, the page may have redirected to a login wall or the username is invalid.
### DOM: Scroll to trigger more posts
When `page_info.has_next_page` is true, scroll the page to trigger GraphQL auto-load:
`eval "$(python scripts/scroll-load-more.py)"`
Then `wait stable` and read the new batch from network traffic:
`network requests --type xhr,fetch --filter threads.com`
Find the `POST https://www.threads.com/graphql/query` request(s) that appeared after the scroll. Read the response:
`network request <id>`
The response body contains `data.mediaData.edges[]` with the same post structure as the SSR extraction output. Each edge has `node.thread_items[0].post` with the same field layout (id/pk, code, caption.text, taken_at, like_count, text_post_app_info.direct_reply_count, etc.).
Error handling: If no new `graphql/query` requests appear after scrolling, the user may have reached the login wall (~15 posts without authentication) or all posts have loaded. Check for a "Log in to see more" message on screen via `screenshot`.
### Composite: Full profile post collection (SSR + scroll pagination)
To collect all available posts for a user:
1. `navigate https://www.threads.com/@{username}` → `wait stable`
2. `eval "$(python scripts/extract-posts.py)"` → collect initial posts, note `page_info`
3. While `page_info.has_next_page == true`:
a. `eval "$(python scripts/scroll-load-more.py)"`
b. `wait stable`
c. `network requests --type xhr,fetch --filter threads.com` → locate new `graphql/query` POST
d. `network request <id>` → extract `data.mediaData.edges[]` posts
e. Check `data.mediaData.page_info.has_next_page` in response to decide whether to continue
4. Stop when `has_next_page == false` or login wall encountered (~15 posts without login)
## Pagination
**DOM Pagination**: Scroll `#scrollview` via `eval "$(python scripts/scroll-load-more.py)"`, then `wait stable` and read newExtracts comprehensive wholesale product data from 1688.com product detail pages: title, tiered pricing, SKU variants with dimensions/weight, product images, seller info, shop scores, buyer protection, cross-border flags, product attributes, coupon/promotion data, and review stats.
