Multi-Account Support

Details for managing multiple WeChat Official Accounts through one EXTEND.md. SKILL.md only covers single-account flow and the selection prompt — read this file when the user has an accounts: block, asks to publish to a specific account, or needs per-account credentials.

Compatibility

EXTEND.md Example

default_theme: default
default_color: blue

accounts:
  - name: 宝玉的技术分享
    alias: baoyu
    default: true
    default_publish_method: api
    default_author: 宝玉
    need_open_comment: 1
    only_fans_can_comment: 0
    app_id: your_wechat_app_id
    app_secret: your_wechat_app_secret
  - name: AI工具集
    alias: ai-tools
    default_publish_method: browser
    default_author: AI工具集
    need_open_comment: 1
    only_fans_can_comment: 0

Per-Account vs Global Keys

Per-account (also accepted globally as fallback): default_publish_method, default_author, need_open_comment, only_fans_can_comment, app_id, app_secret, chrome_profile_path, remote_publish_host, remote_publish_user, remote_publish_port, remote_publish_identity_file, remote_publish_known_hosts_file, remote_publish_strict_host_key_checking, remote_publish_connect_timeout, remote_publish_proxy_jump.

Global-only (always shared): default_theme, default_color.

Account Selection (Step 0.5)

Insert between Step 0 (Load EXTEND.md) and Step 1 (Determine input type):

if no accounts block:
    → single-account mode (original behavior)
elif accounts.length == 1:
    → auto-select the only account
elif --account <alias> CLI arg:
    → select matching account
elif one account has default: true:
    → pre-select, display: "Using account: <name> (--account to switch)"
else:
    → prompt user to choose from the list

Credential Resolution (API Method)

For the selected account with alias {alias}, try in this order (first hit wins):

1. app_id / app_secret inline in the EXTEND.md account block
2. Env vars WECHAT_{ALIAS}_APP_ID / WECHAT_{ALIAS}_APP_SECRET (alias uppercased, hyphens → underscores)
3. .baoyu-skills/.env with the prefixed key WECHAT_{ALIAS}_APP_ID
4. ~/.baoyu-skills/.env with the prefixed key
5. Fallback to unprefixed WECHAT_APP_ID / WECHAT_APP_SECRET

.env Multi-Account Example

# Account: baoyu
WECHAT_BAOYU_APP_ID=your_wechat_app_id
WECHAT_BAOYU_APP_SECRET=your_wechat_app_secret

# Account: ai-tools
WECHAT_AI_TOOLS_APP_ID=your_ai_tools_wechat_app_id
WECHAT_AI_TOOLS_APP_SECRET=your_ai_tools_wechat_app_secret

Chrome Profile (Browser Method)

Each account uses an isolated Chrome profile so logins don't collide.

CLI --account Flag

All publishing scripts accept --account <alias>:

${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/wechat-api.ts <file> --theme default --account ai-tools
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/wechat-article.ts --markdown <file> --theme default --account baoyu
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/wechat-browser.ts --markdown <file> --images ./photos/ --account baoyu

Remote API Publishing

wechat-api.ts supports a remote-api mode that tunnels WeChat API calls through an SSH SOCKS5 dynamic port forward to a server whose IP is on WeChat's allowlist. Markdown rendering, image processing, draft assembly, and HTML rewriting still happen locally; only outbound HTTPS calls to api.weixin.qq.com traverse the tunnel. No files are written to the remote host and AppSecret never leaves the local process. The remote host needs only sshd and outbound network access.

Per-Account Configuration

default_theme: default
default_color: blue
default_publish_method: browser   # browser remains the default

accounts:
  - name: 宝玉的技术分享
    alias: baoyu
    default: true
    default_publish_method: api
    default_author: 宝玉
    app_id: your_wechat_app_id
    app_secret: your_wechat_app_secret
  - name: AI工具集
    alias: ai-tools
    default_publish_method: remote-api
    default_author: AI工具集
    app_id: your_ai_tools_app_id
    app_secret: your_ai_tools_app_secret
    remote_publish_host: ai-tools-server.example.com
    remote_publish_user: deploy
    remote_publish_port: 22
    remote_publish_identity_file: /home/me/.ssh/id_ed25519
    remote_publish_known_hosts_file: /home/me/.ssh/known_hosts
    remote_publish_strict_host_key_checking: accept-new

Account-level remote_publish_* values override top-level globals. CLI --remote-* flags override both.

CLI Usage

# Use the account's default_publish_method (remote-api here):
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/wechat-api.ts <file> --theme default --account ai-tools

# Force remote mode regardless of default_publish_method:
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/wechat-api.ts <file> --theme default --account baoyu --remote --remote-host other-server.example.com

Security Notes

• Authentication is SSH key only. Passwords and ssh-askpass are not used.
• Only the typed remote_publish_* keys are read; raw ssh / scp options are intentionally not supported.
• The tunnel forwards raw TCP; TLS verification for api.weixin.qq.com is still performed end-to-end by the local process.
