2. Core Logic — The bot connects to the device via Appilot or UI Automator, opens Threads, navigates to active stories, and saves them locally.
3. Output or Action — Archived stories are stored in predefined folders or synced to cloud storage automatically.
4. Other Functionalities — Error handling, duplicate filtering, and auto-retry ensure consistent performance even under high load.
