XHS-Downloader

Verified Safe

by JoeanAmier

Overview

A tool for extracting links and downloading watermark-free images and videos from Xiaohongshu (RedNote), supporting multiple operational modes including a server-based MCP interface.

Installation

Run Command
docker run --name xhs-downloader-mcp -p 5556:5556 -v xhs_downloader_volume:/app/Volume -it joeanamier/xhs-downloader python main.py mcp

Security Notes

The tool uses `rookiepy` to extract browser cookies, which may require administrator privileges on some operating systems and could expose sensitive user data if not used carefully. When a proxy is configured for HTTP requests, `httpx` is configured with `verify=False`, which disables SSL certificate verification and can make connections vulnerable to Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks if the proxy is untrusted. The project's JavaScript userscript is obfuscated, which, while not part of the Python server, raises a general concern about transparency in the overall project ecosystem.
