HuiMei 慧媒 — Chinese Social Media Automation CLI & MCP Server

The first MCP Server for Chinese social media — let AI agents publish to Douyin, XHS, Bilibili, Kuaishou, Weibo, and 6 more platforms through one unified interface.

Why HuiMei?

• 🌏 Only MCP Server for Chinese social media — Covers 11 platforms including 抖音 (Douyin), 小红书 (XHS), B站 (Bilibili), 快手 (Kuaishou), 微博 (Weibo), and more. No other tool does this.
• 🔀 CLI + MCP dual interface — Humans use the terminal (huimei publish), AI agents use the MCP protocol. Same engine, two entry points.
• 🔒 Local-first execution — Playwright runs on your device. Cookies are encrypted and stored locally. Your credentials never leave your machine.

MCP Server Integration

MCP (Model Context Protocol) allows AI agents to call external tools as if they were native functions. HuiMei ships a built-in MCP server so agents like Claude, Hermes, and GPT can manage your social media directly.

{
  "mcpServers": {

      "args": []
    }

}

        "The Arm"                          "The Brain"

CLI is the arm, Backend is the brain. The CLI executes browser automation locally. All business logic, scheduling, and orchestration happen on the backend.
