What it does

Reddit Posts is an agent skill from kostja94/marketing-skills. When the user wants to create Reddit post copy, comments, or optimize for Reddit. Also use when the user mentions "Reddit post," "subreddit," "r/," "Reddit marketing," "post to Reddit," "Reddit thread," "Reddit comment," "Reddit copy," "Reddit content," or "Reddit engagement." For Reddit ads, use reddit-ads.

Its SKILL.md is about 840 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Marketing & SEO. It works with Reddit. The repository describes itself as: Agent Skills for Marketing — SEO, Social, Influencer & More. 160+ open-source skills for SEO, content, 40+ page types, paid ads, channels, and strategies. Add project context… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Wants to create Reddit post copy
  • Optimize for Reddit
  • The user mentions Reddit post
  • Reddit marketing

Example prompts

  • “Reddit post,”
  • “subreddit,”
  • “Reddit marketing,”
  • “/reddit-posts”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Title (subreddit-appropriate)
  2. Body (value-driven, formatted)
  3. Suggested flair (if known)
  4. Subreddit reminder: "Verify rules before posting"

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8dd89c5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Reddit Posts loads about 838 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 348 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~81
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~838

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Core Rules

RulePractice
90/10 principle90% value, 10% promotional
Self-promotionMax 1 in 6 posts promotional
Subreddit rulesAlways check sidebar before posting
FlairRequired by many subs; wrong flair = removal
Title formatSome subs require [tags]; check top posts

Post Structure

Title
  • Concise, specific, accurate--no clickbait
  • Match subreddit format (e.g., [Discussion], [Question])

Body
  • Value-first: Lead with help, insight, or story
  • Casual, friendly tone--like talking to a friend
  • Engagement: Open-ended questions, invite discussion
