Authentication

All API calls share the same authentication mechanism.

Token

Obtain via local AutoGLM service or manual configuration.

Signing Headers (required for all requests)

Every request must include these headers:

import hashlib, time

def make_headers(token, app_id, secret):
    ts = str(int(time.time()))
    sign = hashlib.md5(f"{app_id}&{ts}&{secret}".encode()).hexdigest()
    return {
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {token}',
        'X-Auth-Appid': app_id,
        'X-Auth-TimeStamp': ts,
        'X-Auth-Sign': sign,
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    }

1. Browser Automation Agent

Autonomous browser automation agent that can perform any web task.

Capabilities

• Open web pages, search engines (Baidu/Google/Bing)
• Browse social media (Weibo, Xiaohongshu, Zhihu, Douyin, Bilibili)
• Like, comment, repost, bookmark posts
• Login to websites, fill forms
• Take screenshots, scrape web content
• Online shopping comparisons
• Operate online documents (Feishu Docs, Tencent Docs)

Usage

# Delegate entire task to autonomous browser subagent
browser_subagent(task="<task_description>", start_url="<url>")

Key Parameters

Session Management

• Sessions persist in session pool with 12-hour TTL
• Same-site tasks reuse existing sessions
• Different-site tasks open new browser tabs
• Login/captcha always requires manual user interaction

Important Rules

1. One task at a time (no concurrent browser tasks)
2. Always show screenshots in results
3. Default to 5 items when user doesn't specify quantity
4. Separate browser operations from non-browser operations (like saving to Excel)

2. Deep Research (深度调研)

Conduct in-depth research on any topic with structured output.

Process

1. Decompose: Break topic into 1-2 key search directions
2. Search: 1-2 rounds of web search (controlled quantity)
3. Deep Read: Open 1-3 important pages for full-text analysis
4. Report: Generate structured research report
