Perplexity

Run terminal-based Douyin audits with Claude Code

Stop clicking through complex web consoles. Claude Code connects directly to your terminal, letting you call `list_videos` to grab your latest uploads and pipe the output to your favorite command-line tools. The agent formats the video list as clean markdown or JSON. You can quickly filter by upload date or view count without leaving your shell, keeping your workspace fast and keyboard-driven.

Query video performance via the command-line MCP Server

Fetch raw performance metrics instantly. This MCP Server exposes `get_video_analytics` so you can query watch time, shares, and likes directly from your terminal session. Your agent parses the payload to highlight drop-off rates and retention dips. This lets you diagnose content issues in seconds, right next to your video editing scripts or automation pipelines.

Moderate active comment threads from your shell

Keep your terminal window as your command center. Claude Code pulls recent comments using `list_comments` and lists them in a clean terminal table, making it easy to spot spam or questions. You can write a single prompt to reply to specific user queries. The agent calls `reply_comment` to publish your responses instantly, maintaining a highly active comment section without a browser.
