What it does
Xiaohongshu, also known as RedNote, is a Chinese social media app. This project connects it to AI assistants through MCP, a standard way to plug tools into AI apps.
After you log in to your own account, the assistant can check your login status and publish posts with titles, text and images. The README lists more features with video demos.
The README is in Chinese. It notes that new accounts may be asked to complete real-name verification, and it points non-technical users to a simpler browser-extension version.
Who it's for
Content creators and social media managers who use Xiaohongshu and an AI assistant.
