SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Refresh module automates updating the threads_daily_tracker.json by pulling the latest posts, metrics, and comments from Threads via API when a token is available, with a robust Chrome-based fallback when API access is not possible, ensuring your tracker stays current without manual data gathering.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • API-first data refresh from Threads with a safe Chrome fallback for token-less scenarios.
  • Merge, backup, and companion regeneration workflows that preserve historical data and maintain compiled memory.
  • Interactive and headless execution modes with detailed success/failure reporting for scheduled maintenance.
  • Use Case: A creator runs daily refresh to keep the tracker synced, verify recent engagement, and prepare for next-stage analysis.

Quick Start

Invoke the refresh workflow to pull the latest Threads data and merge it into threads_daily_tracker.json, using API when possible and browser scraping as a fallback.
