Install and run
Setup complexity: low.
clawhub skill install s17f5e5dfpy97e0eedccj13yt9885e8y:instagra- Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.
- Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

# Instagram Reel via sssinstagram
## Requirements
- Node.js 18+.
- `playwright-core` installed in the runtime.
- Chromium-compatible browser binary available via:
- `BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_PATH` (preferred), or
- default `/usr/bin/brave-browser`.
## Environment variables
- `OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE` (optional): workspace root used for output path.
- `REEL_DOWNLOAD_DIR` (optional): explicit download directory override.
- `BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_PATH` (optional): browser binary path override.
1. Validate input URL.
- Accept only `https://www.instagram.com/reel/...` (or `/reels/...`) links.
2. Run downloader automation script.
- Execute:
- `node scripts/download_via_sss.mjs "<instagram-url>"`
- On success it prints:
- `MEDIA_PATH=<absolute path>`
3. Send the file to user on WhatsApp.
- Use `message` `action=send` with `media` set to `MEDIA_PATH`.
- Add a small caption like `Done 🐾`.
4. If the site blocks automation.
- Retry once after a short wait.
- If it still fails, report failure cleanly and ask user for another link.
## Notes
- Uses `BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_PATH` if set, otherwise defaults to `/usr/bin/brave-browser`.
- Saves videos to `REEL_DOWNLOAD_DIR` when set, else `<workspace>/downloads` (`OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE` or current working directory).
- Uses Playwright (`playwright-core`) in headless mode.
- Optional cleanup script: `bash scripts/cleanup_reels.sh 30` (minutes to retain, default 30).
- For user privacy, do not store links longer than needed for the download run._meta.json

## Description: Download an Instagram Reel via sssinstagram.com and return it as a WhatsApp-ready video file. This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. ## Publisher: [tnjo](https://clawhub.ai/user/tnjo) ### License/Terms of Use: MIT-0 ## Use Case: External users and agents use this skill to fetch an Instagram Reel through sssinstagram.com and prepare the downloaded video for WhatsApp delivery. ### Deployment Geography for Use: Global ## Known Risks and Mitigations: Risk: The skill sends Instagram Reel URLs to sssinstagram.com and automates a browser against third-party web content. Mitigation: Use it only when that third-party processing is acceptable, and run it in a restricted workspace or container. Risk: Downloaded media and browser automation could expose the runtime to unsafe files or unwanted network reachability. Mitigation: Limit network access, restrict access to sensitive internal services, and apply disk quotas or cleanup for downloaded files. ## Reference(s): - [ClawHub skill page](https://clawhub.ai/tnjo/skills/instagra) - [Publisher profile](https://clawhub.ai/user/tnjo) - [sssinstagram Reel Downloader](https://sssinstagram.com/reels-downloader) ## Skill Output: **Output Type(s):** [text, shell commands, files, guidance] **Output Format:** [Plain text instructions and shell commands that produce a local video file path] **Output Parameters:** [1D] **Other Properties Related to Output:** [The primary runtime result is MEDIA_PATH pointing to a downloaded video file.] ## Skill Version(s): 1.0.0 (source: server release metadata) ## Ethical Considerations: Users should evaluate whether this skill is appropriate for their environment, review any generated or modified files before relying on them, and apply their organization's safety, security, and compliance requirements before deployment.
