bunpro-sync（邦普同步）

Bunpro Sync

Sync your Bunpro grammar learning progress locally for analysis and insights.

⚠️ Important: This uses a community-documented API. The official Bunpro API Key from settings does NOT work - you need the Frontend API Token from your browser.

Overview

This skill fetches your Japanese grammar progress from Bunpro and stores it in a local SQLite database. Track SRS stages, review forecasts, JLPT progress, and identify grammar leeches (items that keep falling back).

API Keys: The Two Different Tokens

Bunpro has two different API tokens that serve different purposes:

❌ DO NOT USE: "Official" API Key (from Settings)

• Found at: bunpro.jp/settings/account
• Looks like: d406663ff421af27c87caaa62eefdb7a (32 hex characters)
• Does NOT work with the Frontend API endpoints this skill uses
• Returns 401 Unauthorized errors

✅ USE THIS: Frontend API Token (from Browser)

• Found in: Browser DevTools → Console or Application Storage
• Looks like: eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9... (long JWT, 200+ chars)
• This is what the skill requires
• Expires periodically (you'll need to refresh it)

How to Get the Frontend API Token

Method 1: Console (Recommended)

1. Go to bunpro.jp and log in
2. Press F12 to open DevTools
3. Click the Console tab
4. Paste this JavaScript and press Enter:

   Object.fromEntries(
     new URLSearchParams(
       document.cookie.replace(/; /g, '&')
     )
   ).frontend_api_token

1. Copy the long string that appears (starts with eyJ)

Method 2: Local Storage

1. Go to bunpro.jp and log in
2. Press F12 → Application tab (or Storage in Firefox)
3. In the left sidebar, expand Local Storage → https://bunpro.jp
4. Look for token, authToken, or frontend_api_token
5. Copy the value (starts with eyJ)

Method 3: Network Tab

1. Go to bunpro.jp and log in
2. Press F12 → Network tab
3. Refresh the page
4. Look for any API call (like /user or /queue)
5. Click it → Headers → Request Headers
6. Find Authorization: Bearer eyJ...
7. Copy the part after "Bearer "

⚠️ Token Expiry: The Frontend API Token expires eventually (days/weeks). When you get 401 errors, repeat the steps above to get a fresh token.

Quick Start

Sync All Data

# Using environment variable (recommended)
export BUNPRO_FRONTEND_API_TOKEN="eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1Qi..."

# Store in specific directory
python3 scripts/sync.py --data-dir ~/bunpro-data

Sync Specific Data

# Only user info
python3 scripts/sync.py --user-only

# Only study queue
python3 scripts/sync.py --queue-only

# Only reviews
python3 scripts/sync.py --reviews-only

Common Queries

-- Grammar mastery by JLPT level
SELECT jlpt_level, COUNT(*) as total,
       SUM(CASE WHEN burned = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as burned
FROM reviews r
JOIN grammar_points g ON r.grammar_point_id = g.id
GROUP BY jlpt_level;

-- Upcoming reviews
SELECT DATE(next_review) as day, COUNT(*)
FROM reviews
WHERE next_review > datetime('now')
GROUP BY day
ORDER BY day
LIMIT 7;

-- Grammar leeches
SELECT g.title, g.meaning, d.streak, r.srs_stage_string
FROM due_items d
JOIN grammar_points g ON d.reviewable_id = g.id
LEFT JOIN reviews r ON d.reviewable_id = r.reviewable_id
WHERE d.is_leech = 1
ORDER BY d.streak ASC;
