Description
### Feature Suggestion: Explore creating a CLI for Rednote (International Xiaohongshu)
**Is your suggestion related to a problem? Please describe.**
Many users operate on the international version of Xiaohongshu, known as Rednote (rednote.com), which caters to a global audience. Currently, `xiaohongshu-cli` primarily targets the domestic Chinese version. Users of Rednote might also benefit greatly from a command-line interface for managing their content and interactions.
**Describe the solution you'd like.**
I'd like to suggest the possibility of creating a separate CLI tool specifically designed for Rednote (rednote.com). This could potentially:
* Allow Rednote users to manage their accounts, post content, and interact with the platform programmatically.
* Leverage your existing expertise in reverse-engineering Xiaohongshu's APIs and anti-detection mechanisms.
**Describe alternatives you've considered.**
Currently, there isn't a known CLI tool for Rednote. Users have to rely on the web interface or mobile app, which limits automation possibilities.
**Additional context**
Developing a `rednote-cli` could tap into a different user base and potentially reuse some of the architectural patterns and anti-detection strategies already present in `xiaohongshu-cli`. It would, of course, require separate reverse-engineering efforts due to potentially different APIs and endpoints used by Rednote.
We understand this would be a new project, but we believe it could be a valuable addition to your suite of CLI tools for social media platforms.
Thank you for considering this suggestion!

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing xiaohongshu-cli architecture, API integrations, and anti-detection approach mentioned in the issue. Investigate whether Rednote exposes compatible or separate APIs and define the proposed rednote-cli scope, including account management, posting, and interactions. Done would require an agreed design and project scope, but the issue does not identify files, tests, or a concrete implementation boundary.
