Reddit Publisher

Reddit Publisher

Prepare Reddit submissions that fit the target subreddit. A request to publish or a queue item marked 排队 authorizes the final post; do not ask again at the last button. Stop only when the task is limited to a draft or preview.

Inputs

• Source Markdown path, project, repo URL, paper, or topic.
• Target subreddit if specified.
• Optional post type, flair, title, link, self-text, or follow-up plan.

If the target subreddit is missing, inspect the topic and suggest likely communities, but do not post until subreddit rules are checked in the browser.

Platform Entry Points

• Submit: https://www.reddit.com/submit
• Search: https://www.reddit.com/search/
• User notifications: https://www.reddit.com/notifications
• Messages: https://www.reddit.com/message/messages

Use a browser surface with the logged-in session when UI work is required. Never bypass authentication with search results or alternate sources.

References

Load references/platform-preferences.md when choosing subreddit fit, title, self-promotion safety, comment strategy, browser QA, promotion balance, or follow-up behavior. Do not load broad strategy drafts for routine posting unless the user asks for campaign or content-platform planning.

Browser-Only Platform Boundary

Do not directly access Reddit APIs, internal endpoints, or background HTTP interfaces. All drafting, QA, screenshots, rule checks, and ledger evidence must come from normal browser interactions.

Draft Preparation

1. Check subreddit relevance before writing.
2. Search for duplicate or recent related discussions.
3. Read subreddit rules, pinned posts, flair requirements, and self-promotion norms.
4. Draft for the community: question, lesson, reproducible artifact, or source link with transparent affiliation.
5. Keep the project link contextual and useful.

Draft Archive

For a pure link submission whose exact title, target subreddit, and URL are already fixed by the dated plan, use those fields directly in the visible composer. Do not create reddit.md, self-text, a first comment, or an affiliation paragraph unless the subreddit requires one. Create draft/media/YYYY-MM-DD/<source-slug>/reddit.md only when the task actually needs original self-text, nontrivial flair or disclosure notes, or paste-ready comment copy.

Browser QA

• target subreddit and flair are correct
• title is factual and not editorialized
• duplicate search did not reveal an active same-topic thread
• Markdown preview renders links, code, and lists correctly when self-text is used
• affiliation/self-promotion disclosure is present only when required by the subreddit
• the final action matches the task: published when authorized, untouched for a draft-only task

Follow-Up

After confirmed posting, capture the permalink. Monitor comments, mod messages, and DMs only when the user asks or follow-up was part of the task. Reply with substance, disclose affiliation, and move durable bug reports to GitHub. Do not vote, cross-post, brigade, DM, or message moderators without explicit instruction.

Ledger Update

After confirmed publish, update .github/publisher/media/published.md with source path, subreddit, Reddit URL, date, flair, link target, and follow-up notes.
