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#

bash

npm install -g agent-browser

2. Install Chromium#

For Debian/Ubuntu:

bash

apt-get install -y chromium

For other Linux distributions:

bash

# 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#

bash

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:

bash

# 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:

bash

# 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:

bash

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:

bash

# 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#

bash

agent-browser close

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:

bash

agent-browser wait 2000
agent-browser snapshot

Chromium not found#

Use the executable-path flag:

bash

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

Workflow Summary#

text

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#

bash

# 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
