  2. Run: node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js login <REFRESH_TOKEN>

To search for illustrations by keyword:

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js search "KEYWORD" [PAGE]

Example:

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js search "miku" 1

Returns a JSON array of illustration details (title, url, tags, user, etc.).

To view rankings:

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js ranking [MODE] [PAGE]

Modes: day, week, month, day_male, day_female, week_original, week_rookie, day_ai. Default is day.

Viewing User Profile

To view a user's profile details:

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js user <USER_ID>

Example:

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js user 11

Viewing Logged-in User Profile (Me)

To view the profile of the currently logged-in account (based on Refresh Token):

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js me

Viewing Followed Users (Following)

To list users that the logged-in account follows:

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js following [PAGE]

Viewing Feed (New Works from Followed Users)

To view latest illustrations from followed users:

node skills/pixiv/scripts/pixiv-cli.js feed [RESTRICT] [PAGE]

RESTRICT can be all, public, or private. Default is all.

Downloading Illustrations

To download an illustration (single image, manga/multiple, or ugoira zip):

node scripts/pixiv-cli.js download <ILLUST_ID>

Files are saved to downloads/<ILLUST_ID>/. Returns JSON containing the list of downloaded files.

Publishing Illustrations (New)

To publish a new illustration directly to Pixiv using the AppAPI v2 (pure code, no browser needed):

node scripts/pixiv-cli.js post <FILEPATH> "<TITLE>" "[TAGS_COMMA_SEPARATED]" [VISIBILITY]
  • VISIBILITY: public (default), login_only, mypixiv, or private.
  • Automatic AI-generated tagging (illust_ai_type: 2) is applied by default.

Example:

node scripts/pixiv-cli.js post "./output.png" "My New Art" "Original, Girl, AI" private

How to get a Token (for User)

If the user asks how to get a token:

  1. Direct them to look up "Pixiv Refresh Token" or use a tool like gppt (Get Pixiv Token).
  2. Or tell them to log in to Pixiv in their browser, and look for the refresh_token in Local Storage or Cookies (though OAuth refresh token is cleaner).
  3. The easiest way for non-technical users is to use a helper script, but we don't have one here. Just ask them to provide it.
