threads-user-posts
Fetches public posts from a Threads user's profile page, extracting post text, engagement metrics, and media info from SSR-embedded JSON. Use when user asks to scrape Threads posts, get someone's Threads feed, pull posts from a Threads account, collect Threads content by username, download Threads user posts, extract Threads profile posts, monitor a Threads user's activity, retrieve recent posts from a Threads handle, gather Threads post data for a creator, or fetch all posts from a specific Threads profile.
npx skills add browser-act/skills --skill threads-user-posts --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Threads — User Posts > username → list of public posts with engagement metrics (SSR + scroll pagination) ## Language All process output to user (progress updates, process notifications) follows the user's language. ## Objective Extract public posts from a given Threads user's profile page using SSR-embedded JSON data, with optional scroll-triggered pagination to load more posts. ## Prerequisites - A browser is open and connected via browser-act - **Login recommended**: Threads enforces a login wall on profile pages in most regions as of mid-2026. A logged-in browser session is required for reliable access. Unauthenticated access via US-based proxies may work in some configurations but is not guaranteed. ## Pre-execution Checks ### 1. Tool Readiness If browser-act has been confirmed available in the current session → skip this step. Invoke `browser-act` via Skill tool to load usage. If installation or configuration issues arise, follow its guidance to resolve then retry. ### 2. Login Verification If login status for Threads has been confirmed in the current session → skip this step. Otherwise: `navigate https://www.threads.com` and check page state: - User avatar or username visib

What does the threads-user-posts skill do?
Fetches public posts from a Threads user's profile page, extracting post text, engagement metrics, and media info from SSR-embedded JSON. Use when user asks to scrape Threads posts, get someone's Threads feed, pull posts from a Threads account, collect Threads content by username, download Threads user posts, extract Threads profile posts, monitor a Threads user's activity, retrieve recent posts from a Threads handle, gather Threads post data for a creator, or fetch all posts from a specific Threads profile.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add browser-act/skills --skill threads-user-posts --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
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.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
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.
