Reddit Research Skill
By Edmund Yong2 min read
Find Reddit posts where your product belongs in the conversation — without sounding like a bot.
What it does
- Drives your local Chrome to search Google
site:reddit.comfor the subreddits and keywords you define - Visits each new thread on
old.reddit.comto pull post body and top comments - Lists every result in a table — no auto-ranking; you triage
- Drafts genuine replies with a founder disclosure when you pick specific posts
On first run, Claude auto-derives everything from your repo (README.md, CLAUDE.md, package.json, plus briefs in plans/ or docs/). You confirm once; future runs go straight to fetching.
Requirements
- Claude Code (docs)
- Node.js 18+ (
node --version) - Chrome with remote debugging — launch with
--remote-debugging-port=9222, or enable it fromchrome://inspect/#remote-debugging
Google may rate-limit
The fetcher paces requests like a human, so a run takes a few minutes. If a CAPTCHA appears, the script writes whatever it has and leaves the tab open — solve it in Chrome and re-run.
