## What it does

The skill searches TikTok for company hashtags and targeted terms through the `apidojo/tiktok-scraper` actor on Apify. It retrieves post metadata, applies date filters, and groups clips into unboxings or buyer feedback. Search requests handle regional ISO country codes and order entries by post date or relevance.

Tone classification relies on lexical signals balanced by like tallies to gauge audience agreement. When a clip's reach surges past the creator's follower baseline, the process labels it trending. Crisis alerts flag severe backlash. They surface when negative feedback spikes within 48 hours or when comment activity signals community debate.

The resulting summary outlines sentiment distributions, viral footage, and key advocate accounts. Users can launch the workflow using `scripts/run_actor.js`, through the Apify MCP tool `apify:run-actor`, or via direct REST endpoints. Without setting the `APIFY_TOKEN` environment variable, execution stops with an error.
