| 1 | # Xiaohongshu Shallow Alignment Implementation Plan |
| 2 | |
| 3 | > **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | **Goal:** Align the browser-based Xiaohongshu uploader with the current Douyin/Kuaishou style for login QR flow, patchright usage, and formal video/note entry points without expanding into CLI or docs work. |
| 6 | |
| 7 | **Architecture:** Keep the work inside `uploader/xiaohongshu_uploader/main.py` as a shallow refactor. Introduce a thin login flow with QR extraction, cookie validation, and result payloads, then add a shared base uploader plus separate video and note browser flows that reuse common setup. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | **Tech Stack:** Python, patchright, async Playwright-compatible browser automation, unittest |

| 13 | ### Task 1: Lock expected login/setup behavior |
| 14 | |
| 15 | **Files:** |
| 16 | - Create: `tests/test_xiaohongshu_uploader.py` |
| 17 | - Modify: `uploader/xiaohongshu_uploader/main.py` |
| 18 | |
| 19 | - [ ] Add tests for `xiaohongshu_setup(..., return_detail=True)` invalid-cookie behavior and uploader validation behavior. |
| 20 | - [ ] Run the targeted test file and confirm it fails for the expected missing behavior. |
| 21 | - [ ] Implement the minimal production changes to satisfy those tests. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | ### Task 2: Refactor Xiaohongshu uploader module |
| 24 | |
| 25 | **Files:** |
| 26 | - Modify: `uploader/xiaohongshu_uploader/main.py` |
| 27 | |
| 28 | - [ ] Switch the module from `playwright.async_api` to `patchright.async_api`. |
| 29 | - [ ] Replace `page.pause()` login with QR extraction, terminal printing, QR file saving, polling, and cookie persistence. |
| 30 | - [ ] Add a shared base uploader plus formal video and note entry points while keeping legacy public names callable. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | ### Task 3: Refresh local debug examples |
| 33 | |
| 34 | **Files:** |
| 35 | - Modify: `examples/get_xiaohongshu_cookie.py` |
| 36 | - Modify: `examples/upload_video_to_xiaohongshu.py` |
| 37 | |
| 38 | - [ ] Update the login example to use the aligned setup entry. |
| 39 | - [ ] Update the upload example to expose direct video/note debug functions. |
| 40 | |
| 41 | ### Task 4: Verify |
| 42 | |
| 43 | **Files:** |
| 44 | - Test: `tests/test_xiaohongshu_uploader.py` |
| 45 | |
| 46 | - [ ] Run the targeted unittest file. |
| 47 | - [ ] Run a quick Python syntax/import check for the modified uploader and examples. |
