## When To Use This Skill (vs `universal-downloader`)
| Scenario | Use |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------ |
| Public YouTube/Vimeo/TikTok video, public Twitter media | `universal-downloader` (yt-dlp)|
| Public image gallery (Pixiv, public Pinterest, public Instagram profile) | `universal-downloader` (gallery-dl)|
| Direct file URL (`.pdf`, `.zip`, `.mp4`) | `universal-downloader` (curl) |
| **Private FB album** / **shared FB photos** / `set=ms.c...` URLs | **this skill** |
| **Google Photos shared album** (login required, FE-only auth) | **this skill** |
| **Instagram private profile** / **stories of private accounts** | **this skill** |
| Pinterest private board, LinkedIn gallery, Slack file gallery | **this skill** |
