csdn — read & publish on CSDN via your own cookies

Drives the user's real CSDN account through the same web APIs the site's own editor uses, authenticated by the login cookie they captured with the ACE extension. No browser, no third-party deps — urllib + hmac (the editor's save endpoint requires an HMAC signature, computed with stdlib).

The connector injects the cookie jar as an env var:

CSDN_COOKIES — a JSON array of cookies. Secret — never echo or print it. The CLI reads it for you.

CSDN fronts its APIs with a WAF; the CLI already sends a full browser fingerprint so reads aren't 403'd. If you still get a WAF 403, the cookie expired — have the user reconnect.

CLI

The skill ships scripts/csdn.py — self-contained, stdlib only.

# $SKILL_DIR can point at another skill loaded this turn — anchor on our own
# script, and re-run this at the top of every Bash block (fresh shell each time).
CSDN="$SKILL_DIR/scripts/csdn.py"; [ -f "$CSDN" ] || CSDN=$(find /tmp -maxdepth 8 -path '*/skills/*/scripts/csdn.py' 2>/dev/null | head -1)
[ -f "$CSDN" ] || { echo "csdn script not found (SKILL_DIR=$SKILL_DIR)" >&2; exit 1; }
python3 "$CSDN" whoami                     # who is logged in (+ total article count)
python3 "$CSDN" articles --limit 20        # my published articles + stats
python3 "$CSDN" article <article-id>       # one article's stats

Stats come straight from CSDN: view_count (阅读), digg_count (点赞), comment_count (评论), collect_count (收藏).

Verify the connection first

CSDN="$SKILL_DIR/scripts/csdn.py"; [ -f "$CSDN" ] || CSDN=$(find /tmp -maxdepth 8 -path '*/skills/*/scripts/csdn.py' 2>/dev/null | head -1)
python3 "$CSDN" whoami
# → {"username": "...", "nickname": "...", "articles_total": 0}

On a WAF 403 / auth error the cookie is expired — tell the user to reconnect at https://studio.acedata.cloud/console/connectors. Do not retry in a loop.

Publishing — GATED (dry-run unless trailing `--confirm`)

publish writes to the user's real account. Content is Markdown. Without a trailing --confirm it dry-runs. --confirm is honored only as the last argument. Always show the dry-run, get an explicit "yes", then re-run with --confirm last.

CSDN="$SKILL_DIR/scripts/csdn.py"; [ -f "$CSDN" ] || CSDN=$(find /tmp -maxdepth 8 -path '*/skills/*/scripts/csdn.py' 2>/dev/null | head -1)
python3 "$CSDN" publish --title "标题" --content-file a.md                      # dry-run
python3 "$CSDN" publish --title "标题" --content-file a.md --draft-only --confirm  # private draft (status=2)
python3 "$CSDN" publish --title "标题" --content-file a.md --tags "AI,Python" --confirm  # PUBLIC, goes live

--draft-only saves a private draft (CSDN status=2) — safe, nothing public.
Without --draft-only the article is published publicly under the user's name. Default to --draft-only unless the user clearly asked to go live.
--tags is a comma-separated list of article tags.

Images

publish automatically re-hosts external markdown images (![](url)) onto CSDN's own CDN (i-blog.csdnimg.cn) before saving — CSDN 防盗链 blocks external images, and saving an article full of external URLs can even time out. Images already on csdnimg.cn are left alone; pass --no-rehost-images to skip. An image that fails to upload keeps its original URL (never blocks the post).

Gotchas — surface before the user is surprised

This is the user's real CSDN account. Confirm before any publish.
Cookie expiry / WAF 403: reconnect at studio.acedata.cloud/console/connectors — never loop-retry a WAF block.
The editor save endpoint is signed with an HMAC key baked into CSDN's web bundle; if CSDN rotates it, publish fails loudly (reads still work).
Never print CSDN_COOKIES — it is full account access.
ToS: cookie automation acts only on the user's own account with their own captured cookie; the user owns that risk.

Record the output

After you successfully publish and obtain the live result URL, call the built-in publish_artifact tool ONCE so the user can track this deliverable in My Outputs:

publish_artifact(kind="article", channel="csdn", title="<title>", url="<the REAL returned URL>", status="delivered")

Use the real returned URL — never fabricate one. Call it once per published item, only after delivery is confirmed; skip it (or use status="failed") if publishing failed. See _shared/artifacts.md.
