Magnet Searcher Skill

This skill enables searching for movies, TV shows, and other content, then finding and extracting magnet/torrent download links using the agent-browser tool.

Prerequisites

1. Install agent-browser

npm install -g agent-browser

2. Install Chromium

For Debian/Ubuntu:

apt-get install -y chromium

For other Linux distributions:

# Try the default install command
agent-browser install
# If that fails (no ARM64 build), use system package manager:
# Fedora: sudo dnf install chromium
# Then use: agent-browser --executable-path /usr/bin/chromium

3. Verify Chromium is accessible

which chromium  # Should return /usr/bin/chromium

Core Workflow

Step 1: Search on a Magnet Site

Open a magnet search site and search for the content:

# Option 1: BTSOW (often works well)
agent-browser open "https://btsow.pics"
agent-browser fill @e7 "movie name here"  # Fill search box
agent-browser press Enter

# Option 2: 360 search engine (good for Chinese content)
agent-browser open "https://www.so.com/s?q=电影名+磁力链"

# Option 3: Bing search
agent-browser open "https://cn.bing.com/search?q=电影名+磁力链"

Step 2: Navigate to Results

After search results appear:

# Wait for page to load
agent-browser wait 2000

# Get page snapshot to see results
agent-browser snapshot

Step 3: Click on a Result Page

Find a relevant result (often shows "磁力" or "magnet" in the snippet) and click it:

agent-browser click @e36  # Use the ref from snapshot
agent-browser wait 3000

Step 4: Extract the Magnet Link

On the detail page, use JavaScript evaluation to find magnet links:

# Find any magnet link on the page
agent-browser eval "document.querySelector('a[href*=magnet]')?.href"

# If that returns nothing, try these alternatives:
agent-browser eval "document.body.innerText"  # Get all text, then search manually

Common magnet link patterns:

• magnet:?xt=urn:btih:...
• Magnet links may be displayed as plain text links

Step 5: Close Browser When Done

Common Issues & Solutions

Baidu requires CAPTCHA

If Baidu shows a security verification, switch to:

• Bing (cn.bing.com)
• 360 (so.com)
• BTSOW (btsow.pics)

Page navigation times out

Some magnet sites are slow or block bots. Try:

• Waiting longer with agent-browser wait 5000
• Trying a different site

Element refs change after page load

Always get a fresh snapshot after waiting:

agent-browser wait 2000
agent-browser snapshot

Chromium not found

Use the executable-path flag:

agent-browser --executable-path /usr/bin/chromium open "https://example.com"

Workflow Summary

1. Install agent-browser + Chromium
2. Open magnet search site
3. Fill search box with content name
4. Wait for results
5. Click on relevant result
6. Use JS eval to extract magnet URL
7. Close browser

Example: Finding "巅峰猎杀" (Apex 2026) Magnet

# Install
npm install -g agent-browser
apt-get install -y chromium

# Search on 360
agent-browser --executable-path /usr/bin/chromium open "https://www.so.com/s?q=巅峰猎杀+磁力链"
agent-browser wait 2000
agent-browser snapshot

# Click on result containing "磁力"
# (Get the ref from snapshot output)
agent-browser click @e36
agent-browser wait 3000

# Extract magnet link
agent-browser eval "document.querySelector('a[href*=magnet]')?.href"

# Result: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:cdeba1f57fbe45bf4f72f8a27908c29857e30614

Important Notes

1. Legal disclaimer: Only search for content you have rights to download
2. 时效性: Magnet links may expire or become unavailable over time
3. Multiple sources: If one site fails, try another
4. Chinese sites: For Chinese movies/shows, use Chinese search terms and sites work better
