All operations must go through python scripts/cli.py only:
- Only execution method: Run
python scripts/cli.py <subcommand>. - Ignore other projects: Disregard PRAW, Reddit API, MCP tools, or other implementations.
- No external tools: Do not call any non-project implementation.
- Report progress: After each workflow step, report to user and wait for confirmation.
Allowed CLI subcommands:

search | Search posts |
home-feed | Get home feed |
subreddit-feed | Get subreddit posts |
get-post-detail | Get post content and comments |

Intent Routing
- User asks "subreddit analysis / analyze r/..." → Subreddit analysis workflow.
- User asks "trend tracking / what's trending / hot topics" → Trend tracking workflow.
- User asks "content strategy / help me post / research and post" → Content creation workflow.
- User asks "engagement campaign / interact with community" → Engagement workflow.
Constraints
- Report progress after each step.
- Publish/comment operations require user confirmation.
- Control overall frequency: Space out automated operations.
- Present all analysis in markdown tables.
Workflows
Subreddit Analysis
Goal: Analyze a subreddit's top content, common themes, and engagement patterns.
Steps:
- Confirm target subreddit.
- Get top posts:
python scripts/cli.py subreddit-feed --subreddit TARGET --sort top
- Get hot posts for comparison:
python scripts/cli.py subreddit-feed --subreddit TARGET --sort hot
- Select 3-5 high-engagement posts, get details:
python scripts/cli.py get-post-detail --post-url POST_URL
- Compile analysis report:
- Common post types (text vs link vs image)
- Title patterns and lengths
- Engagement metrics (score, comments)
- Active times and posting frequency
- Top contributors
Trend Tracking
Goal: Track trending topics across subreddits.
Steps:
- Confirm topic keywords.
- Search each keyword:
python scripts/cli.py search --query "keyword" --sort top --time week
python scripts/cli.py search --query "keyword" --sort new --time day
- Get details on high-engagement posts.
- Output trend report:
- Keyword popularity ranking
- Viral content characteristics
- Cross-subreddit presence
- Topic suggestions
Content Creation
Goal: Research a topic, draft content, get user approval, then post.
Steps:
- Confirm topic and target subreddit.
- Research existing content:
python scripts/cli.py search --query "topic" --sort top
python scripts/cli.py subreddit-feed --subreddit TARGET --sort top
- Analyze 2-3 top posts for structure and style.
- Help user draft post:
- Title (under 300 chars, engaging)
- Body (clear, well-formatted markdown)
- Get user confirmation.
- Submit:
python scripts/cli.py submit-text \
--subreddit TARGET \
--title-file /tmp/reddit_title.txt \
--body-file /tmp/reddit_body.txt
Engagement Campaign
Goal: Strategically engage with community posts.
Steps:
- Confirm target subreddit and engagement goals.
- Find relevant posts:
python scripts/cli.py subreddit-feed --subreddit TARGET --sort new
- Select posts with moderate engagement (good for visibility).
- Get post details:
python scripts/cli.py get-post-detail --post-url POST_URL
- Craft thoughtful, relevant comments.
- Get user confirmation, then post:
python scripts/cli.py post-comment \
--post-url POST_URL \
--content "Your insightful comment"
- Optionally upvote/save:
python scripts/cli.py upvote --post-url POST_URL
python scripts/cli.py save-post --post-url POST_URL
- Keep 30-60 second intervals between actions.
Strategy Tips
- Subreddit analysis: Weekly for tracking subreddit evolution.
- Trend tracking: Daily for time-sensitive topics.
- Engagement frequency: Max 10-15 comments per day to stay authentic.
- Best posting times: Varies by subreddit. Generally weekday mornings (US time) get more visibility.
- Comment quality: Thoughtful, relevant comments build reputation better than quantity.
Failure Handling
- No search results: Broaden search terms.
- Post detail failed: Post may be deleted or private.
- Rate limited: Increase intervals, reduce frequency.
- Publish failed: See reddit-publish failure handling.
