Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: www.reddit.com.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to interact directly with Reddit's API, allowing them to fetch data, search discussions, and analyze community trends across various subreddits. It serves as a bridge between automated agents and the vast repository of user-generated content on the platform.

When to use it

  • Market Research: Automatically gather sentiment analysis or topic trends from specific niche communities without manual browsing.
  • Content Curation: Identify viral posts or high-engagement discussions to summarize for internal reports or newsletters.
  • Community Monitoring: Track mentions of a brand, product, or event in real-time across relevant subreddits.
  • Data Aggregation: Extract structured data from Reddit threads to feed into larger analytics pipelines or knowledge bases.

Key capabilities

  • Access public subreddit information and post metadata via RESTful endpoints.
  • Search for specific keywords, users, or content within the Reddit ecosystem.
  • Retrieve detailed thread histories and comment sections for deeper context analysis.
  • Filter results by timeframes, sort orders (e.g., hot, top, new), and subreddit categories.

Example prompts

  • "Search the r/technology subreddit for posts about 'artificial intelligence' published in the last 24 hours."
  • "Summarize the top 10 most upvoted discussions regarding remote work tools from the past week."
  • "Extract user sentiment scores from comments on a specific post ID to gauge community reaction."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent handles rate limits carefully, as Reddit imposes strict quotas on API calls to prevent abuse. Always verify that the data accessed is public, as private subreddits or restricted content require special authentication and permissions not covered by standard public API access.
