# Social Media Finder Skill ## 📖 Brief This skill automates the discovery of social media accounts associated with individuals, brands, or businesses across multiple platforms.

The results are returned as a downloadable CSV file. ## ✨ Features 1. **No Hallucinations**: Pre-set workflows avoid AI generative hallucinations, ensuring stable and precise data extraction. 2. **No Captcha Issues**: No need to handle reCAPTCHA or other verification challenges. 3. **No IP Restrictions**: No need to handle regional IP restrictions or geofencing. 4. **Faster Execution**: Tasks execute faster compared to pure AI-driven browser automation solutions. 5. **Cost-Effective**: Significantly lowers data acquisition costs compared to high-token-consuming AI solutions. ## 🔑 API Key Setup Before running, check the `BROWSERACT_API_KEY` environment variable. If not set, do not take other measures; ask and wait for the user to provide it. **Agent must inform the user**: > "Since you haven't configured the BrowserAct API Key yet

Where does this skill come from?
From browser-act/skills, a repository with 5,160 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
