Browse and search Reddit in read-only mode using public JSON endpoints. Use when the user asks to browse subreddits, search for posts by topic, inspect comment threads, or build a shortlist of links to review and reply to manually.

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Read-only Reddit browsing for Clawdbot.
Finding posts in one or more subreddits (hot/new/top/controversial/rising) Searching for posts by query (within a subreddit or across all) Pulling a comment thread for context Producing a shortlist of permalinks so the user can open Reddit and reply manually
Read-only only. This skill never posts, replies, votes, or moderates. Be polite with requests: Prefer small limits (5โ10) first. Expand only if needed. When returning results to the user, always include permalinks.
All commands print JSON to stdout. Success: { "ok": true, "data": ... } Failure: { "ok": false, "error": { "message": "...", "details": "..." } }
node {baseDir}/scripts/reddit-readonly.mjs posts <subreddit> \ --sort hot|new|top|controversial|rising \ --time day|week|month|year|all \ --limit 10 \ --after <token>
# Search within a subreddit node {baseDir}/scripts/reddit-readonly.mjs search <subreddit> "<query>" --limit 10 # Search all of Reddit node {baseDir}/scripts/reddit-readonly.mjs search all "<query>" --limit 10
# By post id or URL node {baseDir}/scripts/reddit-readonly.mjs comments <post_id|url> --limit 50 --depth 6
node {baseDir}/scripts/reddit-readonly.mjs recent-comments <subreddit> --limit 25
node {baseDir}/scripts/reddit-readonly.mjs thread <post_id|url> --commentLimit 50 --depth 6
Use this when the user describes criteria like: "Find posts about X in r/a, r/b, and r/c posted in the last 48 hours, excluding Y". node {baseDir}/scripts/reddit-readonly.mjs find \ --subreddits "python,learnpython" \ --query "fastapi deployment" \ --include "docker,uvicorn,nginx" \ --exclude "homework,beginner" \ --minScore 2 \ --maxAgeHours 48 \ --perSubredditLimit 25 \ --maxResults 10 \ --rank new
Clarify scope if needed: subreddits + topic keywords + timeframe. Start with find (or posts/search) using small limits. For 1โ3 promising items, fetch context via thread. Present the user a shortlist: title, subreddit, score, created time permalink a brief reason why it matched If asked, propose draft reply ideas in natural language, but remind the user to post manually.
If Reddit returns HTML, re-run the command (the script detects this and returns an error). If requests fail repeatedly, reduce --limit and/or set slower pacing via env vars: export REDDIT_RO_MIN_DELAY_MS=800 export REDDIT_RO_MAX_DELAY_MS=1800 export REDDIT_RO_TIMEOUT_MS=25000 export REDDIT_RO_USER_AGENT='script:clawdbot-reddit-readonly:v1.0.0 (personal)'
