Catchers

• 01

  linkedin-catcher

  linkedin.com

  Scroll a LinkedIn profile's recent activity and export posts (text, media, url, repost) to CSV.

• 02

  threads-catcher

  threads.net

  Scroll a Threads profile and export posts (text, media, url, repost, thread tag) to CSV.

• 03

  x-catcher

  x.com

  Scroll an X (Twitter) profile and export posts (text, media, url, repost, thread tag) to CSV. Uses a MAIN-world injected script to reach internal APIs.

Usage

Use the catchers in this sequence per profile you want to capture.

• 01

  Open the profile

  Load the target LinkedIn, Threads, or X profile in the active tab.

• 02

  Open the side panel

  Click the catcher's toolbar icon to attach the side panel to the current tab.

• 03

  Start the scroll

  Press Start so the content script auto-scrolls, deduplicates posts, and streams previews in real time.

• 04

  Stop and export

  Press Stop when the feed is exhausted or you have enough rows. A CSV downloads via chrome.downloads.

Why side-scraper

A single all-in-one scraper fails in predictable ways, so this repo keeps each platform isolated.

• Each platform virtualizes its feed differently.
• Selectors rot at different cadences per site.
• Permission scopes and host_permissions stay minimal per platform.
• X requires a MAIN-world injected script to reach internal APIs; LinkedIn and Threads do not.
