TTS responses were written synchronously from the async presentation pipeline, blocking concurrent requests. Offload byte writes to a worker thread and add a regression test that keeps the event loop responsive.
The playbook listed search_queries as a video source in three places, then contradicted itself. Replace with action-oriented guidance: videos via hashtags/URLs, accounts via user_search. Drop 'login-walled' (the agent has no login path).
Brings the three newer verbs to parity with tiktok.scrape everywhere it was
wired: MCP tools (+ selfcheck manifest), the chat subagent prompt/description,
the playground catalog, the native docs page, and the SEO marketing page. Also
adds live e2e stages for comments, user search, and trending. Docs/FAQ now
state the real contract: profile metadata is reliable while its video list can
be withheld, and keyword video search is walled (use user search for accounts).
The Explore feed (/api/explore/item_list) is a global trending-video feed
served to anonymous sessions, and it returns the same itemStruct shape as the
other listings — so the verb reuses parse_video, the listing flow, the
TikTokVideoItem output, and the per-video billing meter wholesale. Adds a
browser-capture marker + fetch_trending, a synthetic-target orchestrator entry,
and the tiktok.trending capability, surfaced on the chat subagent.
Comments load over a signed /api/comment/list XHR that TikTok serves to
anonymous sessions once the comments panel is opened (unlike profile-video and
general-search feeds), so this is a reliable verb. Given video URLs it returns
CommentItems (text, author, likes, reply counts; replies carry repliesToId),
deduped per video, capped, and degraded to an ErrorItem for empty/withheld
videos or a bad_url ErrorItem for non-video inputs.
Generalizes the browser capture over a pluggable interaction step so the
comments flow (open panel, scroll the panel to paginate) reuses the same
warm+capture scaffolding as listing/user-search. Billed per comment on a new
TIKTOK_COMMENT meter (TIKTOK_MICROS_PER_COMMENT, matching the per-comment
market), surfaced on the chat subagent alongside tiktok.scrape/user_search.
Video/general search is login-walled for anonymous sessions, but the Users
tab (/api/search/user) returns public account records without a redirect, so
this exposes the one reliably-unblocked search path. A keyword yields
TikTokProfileItems (name, followers, bio, verification), deduped per query,
capped, and degraded to an ErrorItem when a query is empty/withheld.
Reuses the browser capture (generalized over XHR markers + extractor) and the
shared profile item shape. Billed per account on a new TIKTOK_USER meter
(TIKTOK_MICROS_PER_USER), surfaced on the chat subagent alongside tiktok.scrape.
