2 things to look at

no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
13 stars13 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Upload videos to the user's TikTok inbox/drafts and read their TikTok profile via the Content Posting API. Use when the user wants to publish or post a generated video to TikTok, send a video to their TikTok drafts, or check their TikTok account.

The file declares its own license as Apache-2.0. That is the author’s claim about this one file, and it is not the same thing as the license GitHub reports for the repository, which is listed with the other numbers below.

SKILL.md

2.8 KB, as published. Nobody here has run it

Call the TikTok Content Posting API with curl + jq. The user's OAuth bearer token is in $TIKTOK_TOKEN; every call needs Authorization: Bearer $TIKTOK_TOKEN. Base URL: https://open.tiktokapis.com/v2.

Responses wrap everything in {"data":...,"error":{"code","message","log_id"}} — error.code == "ok" means success; otherwise show error.message verbatim. 401/access_token_invalid = re-connect TikTok.

T="https://open.tiktokapis.com/v2"; AUTH="Authorization: Bearer $TIKTOK_TOKEN"
# Profile (account card)
curl -sS -H "$AUTH" "$T/user/info/?fields=open_id,display_name,avatar_url" \
  | jq '.data.user'

Upload a video to the user's inbox / drafts (v1)

The simplest path is PULL_FROM_URL: TikTok fetches the video from a public URL on a verified domain (AceData's cdn.acedata.cloud is verified for this app).

VIDEO_URL="https://cdn.acedata.cloud/...mp4"   # must be on a verified domain
curl -sS -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "$(jq -n --arg u "$VIDEO_URL" \
  '{source_info:{source:"PULL_FROM_URL", video_url:$u}}')" \
  "$T/post/publish/inbox/video/init/" | jq '{publish_id: .data.publish_id, error}'

This drops the video into the user's TikTok inbox — they open the TikTok app to add caption / sound / privacy and post. Poll status:

curl -sS -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"publish_id":"PUBLISH_ID"}' "$T/post/publish/status/fetch/" \
  | jq '.data | {status, fail_reason}'

Gotchas

v1 = inbox upload only. True "Direct Post" (set caption + privacy via API, posts immediately) needs the video.publish scope and a passed Content Posting audit — not available until then. Don't call creator_info / /post/publish/video/init/ (Direct Post) here; they require that scope.
PULL_FROM_URL only works from a domain verified in the TikTok developer app. If the video isn't on a verified domain, use the chunked FILE_UPLOAD flow instead (init → PUT byte ranges → status).
Unaudited apps are rate-limited and may restrict visibility to SELF_ONLY.

Grouped from the skills themselves: near-identical wordings counted once, and counted by distinct author, so one author publishing three of these counts once.
