Summary and Usage Guide

When using an assistant with access to the BlueSky API, you can perform a variety of tasks:

1. Search for Actors:
   • Ask the assistant to find BlueSky users based on a search query. For example: "Find BlueSky users with 'tech' in their name."
2. Retrieve Actor Profiles:
   • Request detailed information about specific BlueSky users. For instance: "Get the profile for user @johndoe.bsky.social."
3. Fetch Multiple Profiles:
   • Gather information on several users at once. Try: "Retrieve profiles for @user1, @user2, and @user3 on BlueSky."
4. Search Posts:
   • Look for posts containing specific keywords or topics. Example: "Search for BlueSky posts about 'artificial intelligence'."
5. Get Specific Posts:
   • Retrieve particular posts using their unique identifiers. Ask: "Fetch the BlueSky post with URI at://did:plc:abcdefg/post/1234."
6. Access Author Feeds:
   • Explore posts from a specific user's feed. Try: "Show me the recent posts from @techguru.bsky.social."

To make the most of the API:

• Be specific with your queries, especially when searching for actors or posts.
• Use limits and pagination (via cursors) when dealing with large datasets to manage response sizes.
• Combine different endpoints for more complex tasks, like searching for users and then retrieving their recent posts.
• Remember that some operations might require authentication, depending on the BlueSky instance's settings.

Whether you're building a BlueSky client, analyzing social trends, or just exploring the platform's capabilities, this API provides a powerful toolset for interacting with BlueSky's decentralized social ecosystem.
