MatrixMedia CLI

Subcommands

Douyin and 视频号 support CLI login. Other platforms cannot log in via CLI — ask the user to log in once in the GUI; CLI then reuses the same persist:<phone><platform> session partition for cli publish / cli accounts. If cli accounts reports cookie 已过期, send the user back to the GUI to re-login (or use cli login for Douyin/视频号).

Quick Start

Use this skill when the user asks to:

• use CLI mode instead of GUI
• publish videos by command line
• inspect account login status or publish history from the command line
• automate login/publish in OpenClaw or other agent workflows

Default publish sequence:

1. Preflight checks
2. cli accounts to verify the target account is logged in (optional but recommended)
3. cli login (only when needed)
4. cli publish
5. Verify exit code, optionally cli history -n 5 to confirm the new record
6. Summarize result

Preflight Checklist

Before running publish commands, ensure:

• current directory is repository root
• video file path exists
• ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE is not globally forced to 1
• platform and account identifier are provided

If the user gives incomplete parameters, ask for:

• platform (dy for Douyin as default)
• phone (preferred) or partition
• file path
• title

Canonical Commands

Installed app (recommended) examples:

# show login help
matrixmedia cli login --help

# login (Douyin — terminal QR, no window)
matrixmedia cli login -p dy --phone 13800138000

# login (视频号 — terminal QR, transparent window)
matrixmedia cli login -p sph --phone 13800138000

# login (视频号 — visible window for debugging)
matrixmedia cli login -p sph --phone 13800138000 --show

# show publish help
matrixmedia cli publish --help

# publish
matrixmedia cli publish \
  -p dy \
  --phone 13800138000 \
  -f "/absolute/path/to/video.mp4" \
  -t "视频标题" \
  --name "任务名" \
  --tags "标签1,标签2"

# list all accounts with login status
matrixmedia cli accounts

# list only logged-out Douyin accounts in JSON form
matrixmedia cli accounts -p dy --logged-out --json

# last 7 days of publish records
matrixmedia cli history

# failed publishes on Douyin in the last 30 days
matrixmedia cli history -p dy -d 30 -s failed

Development mode (repo local) examples:

# show publish help in source workspace
ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE= electron . cli publish --help

Windows installer behavior:

• NSIS installer writes install directory to user PATH.
• Executable command is unified as matrixmedia.
• Users should not need to choose between Chinese/English executable names.

macOS installer behavior:

• .dmg only delivers the .app bundle; it cannot touch user PATH.

• Recommend users run a one-time symlink after drag-installing:

  sudo ln -sf /Applications/matrixmedia.app/Contents/MacOS/matrixmedia /usr/local/bin/matrixmedia

  After that, plain matrixmedia cli ... works in any terminal. The link survives app upgrades as long as the .app stays at /Applications/matrixmedia.app.

• If the user refuses sudo, fall back to an alias in their shell rc:

  alias mm='/Applications/matrixmedia.app/Contents/MacOS/matrixmedia'

• When scripting on Mac without the symlink, always spell the full binary path — /Applications/matrixmedia.app/Contents/MacOS/matrixmedia cli ....

Argument Mapping

Map user intent to CLI args:

• -p, --platform: target platform
• --phone or --partition: account/session partition
• -f, --file: local video path
• -t, --title: required video title
• --description, --desc: optional video description/body
• --short-title: optional 视频号 short title, recommended 6–16 characters
• --name, --book-name: task name
• --bt2: legacy compatibility; short title for 视频号, description for other platforms
• --tags, --bq: video tags（space-separated; # prefix semantics vary per platform)
• --address: location field (Baidu use case)
• --publish-at: one-time scheduled publish time, format YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss
• --show: show automation window
• --no-close-window: keep window open when --show is enabled

Scheduled Publish

Use --publish-at "YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss" for one-time scheduled publishing. The command must include the real video file and text fields; do not create empty placeholder tasks.

matrixmedia cli publish \
  -p dy \
  --phone 13800138000 \
  -f "/absolute/path/to/video.mp4" \
  -t "视频标题" \
  --description "视频简介" \
  --short-title "短标题" \
  --tags "#标签1 #标签2" \
  --publish-at "2026-05-05 20:30:00"

Rules:

1. Only explicit year-month-day hour-minute-second is supported. Do not generate daily, weekly, monthly, or cron-style schedules.
2. The scheduled task is written to publish history immediately with status scheduled.
3. If MatrixMedia is closed and misses the time, the next startup marks the task as expired; do not auto-republish expired tasks.
4. Failed or expired scheduled tasks can be republished from GUI history because the record stores the real file path, platform, account, title, short title, tags, and address.
5. If --publish-at is in the past or uses an invalid format, treat it as an argument error and ask the user for a future time.

Per-Platform Field Semantics

Use the semantic fields directly:

视频号短标生成规则（最常踩坑）

When publishing to 视频号, accept --short-title from the user or generate one when useful. Rules when generating:

1. Length: 6–16 characters (Chinese chars and ASCII letters each count as 1). Aim for 8–12 to be safe.
2. Punctuation blacklist (will be replaced with space by the uploader): ，。、/ , ; : ! ? ' " ( ) [ ] { } < >. Avoid entirely, don't try to style with them.
3. Content: distill the video's core hook / outcome / number — not a truncation of the long title.
4. Don't reuse --title verbatim; the short-title box should contain a concise summary.
5. Style: short declarative phrase, optionally an emotional beat or a number, no trailing punctuation.

Good vs bad (long title "新手第一天跑步就坚持 5 公里是什么体验"):

• ✅ "5公里新手挑战" — 7 chars, no punctuation, keeps the hook (number + identity).
• ✅ "第一天跑5公里" — 8 chars.
• ❌ "新手第一天跑步就坚持5公里是什么体验" — 18 chars, exceeds hint, also redundant with title.
• ❌ "第一天！跑5公里！" — punctuation will be stripped to spaces, becoming 第一天 跑5公里 .

When the user hands over only a long title and asks the agent to publish to 视频号, auto-generate a short title that satisfies the rules, and echo it back in the result summary so the user can audit.

标签写法规范

1. 最多 4 个话题。这是 agent 生成 --tags 时的硬上限：不管用户给了多少候选，选出最相关的 4 个，多余的丢掉。少于 4 个 OK；不要为了凑数塞弱相关词。CLI 对 > 4 的输入会打 warn。
2. 视频号 / 抖音 / 快手 必须带 # 前缀。这三个平台把 --tags 整串拼进描述末尾，不加 # 就只是普通尾缀文字，不成话题。典型写法："#减脂 #健身 #新手 #跑步"（4 个，空格分隔，每个前置 #）。
3. 哔哩哔哩 / 小红书 可不带 #。这俩走独立标签控件，split(/\s+/) 后剥前导 #；为清晰推荐不写 #，数量同样上限 4。
4. 百家号 / 头条 不消费 --tags。不要为这两个平台耗费思考生成标签，写也被忽略。
5. 分隔符：严格 ASCII 空格。, ， 、 ; ； | 都会被 split(/\s+/) 视为标签字符一部分，CLI 会 warn。
6. 字符集：中文 / 英文 / 数字；单个标签内部不要空格；哔哩哔哩控件会静默吞 emoji。
7. 避免跨字段重复：不要把同一句话同时放入 --description / --short-title / --tags。

Good vs bad（视频号 / 抖音 / 快手）：

• ✅ --tags "#减脂 #健身 #新手 #跑步" — 4 个话题，都带 #，空格分隔
• ✅ --tags "#跑步 #新手" — 2 个话题也合法，相关性优先
• ❌ --tags "#减脂 #健身 #新手 #跑步 #效率 #自律 #打卡" — 7 个超出上限，agent 应裁到最相关 4 个
• ❌ --tags "减脂 健身 新手 跑步" — 没有 #，在这三个平台会变成描述的普通尾缀文字
• ❌ --tags "#减脂,#健身,#跑步" — 逗号分隔，会被当作一个整体串；用空格

Good vs bad（哔哩哔哩 / 小红书）：

• ✅ --tags "游戏 解说 开黑" — ≤ 4，无 # 更直观
• ✅ --tags "#游戏 #解说 #开黑" — 带 # 也 OK（会被剥离），不推荐

Login Rules

• cli login supports Douyin (-p dy) and 视频号 (-p sph). Do not attempt cli login -p tt/ks/blbl/bjh — the parser rejects it.
• Douyin login: default hidden window + terminal QR; supports --puppeteer-headless for true headless mode. --show is ignored.
• 视频号 login: default transparent window (opacity: 0) + terminal QR; supports --show to open a visible login window. Does not support --puppeteer-headless. UA is injected via CDP page.setUserAgent() (WeChat UA) before navigation to cover all iframe requests. Re-login is always supported (detects new sessionid different from the old one).
• For non-Douyin/视频号 platforms: instruct the user to log in once in the GUI; CLI automatically reuses the same persist:<phone><platform> session partition for cli publish / cli accounts.
• If a publish fails with login/session errors:
  • Douyin → run cli login -p dy --phone <phone> first, then retry publish.
  • 视频号 → run cli login -p sph --phone <phone> first, then retry publish.
  • Other platforms → ask the user to re-login in the GUI, then retry cli publish.
• On Linux headless/SSH, prefer xvfb-run -a for the login display pipeline.
• cli accounts is non-interactive — it only reads session cookies and never triggers login; use it to pick the right --phone / --partition before login or publish, and to diagnose expired cookies.

Accounts Command

Inspect login state for every account the GUI already knows about:

matrixmedia cli accounts [options]

Key flags:

• -p, --platform <id>: filter by platform (dy|tt|ks|blbl|bjh|sph).
• --phone <id>: filter by full phone string stored in the account tree.
• --logged-in / --logged-out: keep only one side (mutually exclusive).
• --json: machine-readable output (objects with phone/pt/partition/loggedIn/reason/expireAt/createdAt).

Rules used per platform (cookie in the persist partition for that site):

• 抖音 → passport_assist_user
• 百家号 → BDUSS
• 头条 → odin_tt (value length > 65)
• 视频号 → sessionid
• 番茄视频 → sessionid
• 哔哩哔哩 → SESSDATA
• 快手 → userId

Expired cookies report loggedIn: false with reason cookie 已过期.

History Command

Read the local publish log (<Documents>/MatrixMedia/data/pushData/YYYY-MM-DD.json):

matrixmedia cli history [options]

Key flags:

• -p, --platform <id>: platform filter.
• --phone <id>: phone filter.
• -s, --status <s>: success | failed | publishing（中文同义 成功 | 失败 | 发布中）。
• -d, --days <n>: look-back window (default 7).
• --since <YYYY-MM-DD> / --until <YYYY-MM-DD>: explicit range; overrides --days.
• -n, --limit <n>: cap rows (default 50, sorted by last publish time desc).
• --json: machine-readable output.

Record-status inference: prefer publishStatus; fall back to publishSuccessCount > 0 → success, publishFailCount > 0 → failed, otherwise publishing. Attempt column shows successCount/attemptCount, matching what GUI 视频管理 renders.

Execution Policy For Agents

1. Run cli <sub> --help once when flags are uncertain (applies to publish/login/accounts/history).
2. Quote paths that may contain spaces.
3. Prefer absolute file paths for --file.
4. Before publishing, run cli accounts -p <platform> --phone <phone> (or --logged-out variant) to confirm the session is still valid — it avoids wasting a 35-minute publish timeout on an expired cookie.
5. After execution, inspect exit code:
   • 0: success
   • 2: argument error, fix arguments and rerun
   • 3: task failure (often login/session/upload), recover then rerun
6. When debugging a failed publish, cli history --phone <phone> -p <platform> -n 5 shows the most recent attempts and the lastPublishMessage that GUI displays.
7. Return a concise result summary: command intent, key args, outcome, next action.

Output Template

Use this response structure after command execution:

执行结果：

- 命令：`cli publish ...`
- 参数：平台/账号/文件/标题
- 退出码：0|2|3
- 结论：成功 或 失败原因
- 下一步：是否需要先 `cli login` 或调整参数重试
