Download and archive a Reddit post with everything attached to it — full text, the whole comment tree, images, galleries, and v.redd.it video with the audio actually merged back in. Use whenever someone wants to save, download, archive, back up, or scrape a Reddit post or thread; download a Reddit video or gallery; capture a thread before it is deleted; or build a dataset from Reddit content. Also use when a downloaded Reddit video has no sound, which is the usual symptom of taking fallback_url instead of merging the DASH streams, or when a gallery download returns 403. Produces a self-contained directory with a manifest, so the capture is reproducible and auditable. Not for posting to Reddit.

Post and comment on Reddit from an agent, through the user's own logged-in Chrome, and verify the submission actually survived moderation instead of trusting the HTTP 200. Use whenever someone wants to post to Reddit, submit a thread, leave a comment, reply to a thread, publish to a subreddit, or automate Reddit posting from a script or agent — including phrasings like "post this to r/X", "reply to this Reddit thread", "draft and publish a Reddit post". Also use when a Reddit write is failing: 403 errors, a "Prove your humanity" interstitial, an expired session, a flair-required rejection, or a post that returned success but is missing from the subreddit. This skill contains the diagnosis path for all of those. Single account only — the user's own. Not for read-only Reddit research, and not for operating multiple accounts.

Find which subreddits are worth posting to for a topic — and, unlike every other prospecting tool, check whether posting is actually permitted there before you spend a post on it. Use whenever someone wants to find relevant subreddits, scout Reddit communities, research where to post or launch, find threads to reply to, do Reddit lead generation or ICP monitoring, or asks "where should I post this on Reddit". Also use before any Reddit promotion or launch, since it surfaces self-promotion bans, flair requirements, and karma or account-age gates that silently waste a post. Outputs a ranked, rules-checked target list with transparent scoring. Research only — it never posts; pair it with reddit-post for that.

Check whether a Reddit post or comment is publicly live and marked robot-indexable — or silently held in the AutoMod queue. Use this whenever someone asks about Reddit SEO, Reddit GEO, generative engine optimisation on Reddit, whether their Reddit post is indexed, why a Reddit post gets no traffic, whether a post was shadowbanned, removed, filtered, or "posted fine but nobody sees it". Also use it before posting, to check a subreddit's posting requirements, flair rules, and karma or account-age gates, and after posting, to confirm the submission survived moderation. Reach for it when a Reddit write returned HTTP 200 but the post is missing from listings, when auditing which of your Reddit posts are indexable, or when planning where Reddit content can realistically rank. Not a keyword-research or content-writing tool — this measures visibility that already exists.

Sample what a subreddit actually upvotes and write in that register, so a post doesn't read as machine-written. Use before drafting any Reddit post or comment, and whenever someone asks how to write for a specific subreddit, why their post got downvoted, how to sound less like AI, how to match a community's tone, or what format a subreddit expects. Also use when a post was rule-compliant and well-targeted but still flopped — that is usually a register problem, not a targeting one. Measures title shape, body formatting, comment length, distinctive vocabulary, and recurring phrases from live top posts, then hands the raw samples over for judgement. Research and drafting only; it never posts.
