Follow a TikTok user
Input
username requiredTikTok handle, with or without leading @. The account must exist and be viewable by the signed-in account: a handle that does not exist, or one TikTok will not show (private, restricted, or gated by the creator's audience controls), is refused rather than followed, because TikTok renders no follow button on those profiles.
Output
changed requiredTrue if this call started the follow; false if already following.

Search TikTok users
Search TikTok accounts by keyword. Returns the top ~10 matches (TikTok web caps user search; not deeply paginable).
Get TikTok following
List who a TikTok user follows, by @username. Accounts that keep their following list hidden, and private accounts, are reported with a clear reason instead of an empty or partial list; a handle nobody owns is reported as such. For third-party accounts, TikTok caps the list and pads short ones with suggested accounts, so check `total` and `truncated`; results are only fully reliable for accounts you can see in full, such as your own.
Get TikTok profile
Get a TikTok user's profile (bio, stats, verified, secUid) by @username.
