Overview

This skill automates Reddit account cultivation for founders and indie developers by controlling a real Chrome browser on macOS via AppleScript. It inspects account status, scans rising posts, drafts human-style comments, and posts them directly while avoiding bot-detection. The workflow emphasizes safety limits, anti-AI writing rules, and session summaries with direct comment links.

How this skill works

The skill runs AppleScript (or JXA) to execute JavaScript inside an active Chrome tab so requests come from your logged-in browser and cookies are included. If Chrome windows are inaccessible (multi-profile), it falls back to System Events keyboard automation to paste and run JS in the DevTools console. Results are returned by writing JSON into document.title or reading window names, enabling checks for karma, post lists, and posting actions without using APIs or headless drivers.

When to use it

When you need undetectable browser-driven Reddit maintenance from a macOS machine
To discover early opportunities in target subreddits (rising posts) and respond quickly
When you want drafted, human-like comments that follow subreddit norms and anti-AI rules
For lightweight session-based posting with rate limits and summaries
When API tokens or Playwright/Selenium are unsuitable or detected

Best practices

Enable Chrome: Developer → Allow JavaScript from Apple Events and restart Chrome before use
Run the method-detection check first to choose execute-JS or System Events fallback
Respect rate limits: 2+ seconds between calls, 4+ seconds between posts, max ~5 comments per session
Follow the anti-AI writing rules: banned words/phrases, use contractions, specific details, and varied sentence length
Never post identical text twice; keep each comment unique and non-promotional

Example use cases

Scan r/SideProject and r/indiehackers for rising threads you can add expertise to, then post 1–3 concise comments
Check account karma and login status before a maker launch to avoid surprises
Draft context-aware replies with tool names, timings, and concrete fixes that read human
Post session summary with direct links to every comment for tracking and team reporting
Automate recurring weekly maintenance: scan targets, draft candidates, and queue approved comments

FAQ

No. This relies on AppleScript/System Events and macOS-only Chrome automation.

Is it detectable by Reddit?

Because it executes in your logged-in Chrome and uses same-origin requests, it appears as normal browsing; follow rate limits and posting rules to avoid flags.
