Browse, search, post, and moderate Reddit. An agent skill from majiayu000/claude-skill-registry.

  • Works in 6 steps: Go to https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps → Click "create another app..." → Select "script" type → …
  • Tasks that involve OAuth and OpenID Connect
  • SKILL.md covers Setup (for posting/moderation), Read Posts (no auth required), Search Posts and Get Comments on a Post, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls node; reaches reddit.com; needs REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET and REDDIT_PASSWORD

What it does

Reddit is an agent skill from majiayu000/claude-skill-registry. Browse, search, post, and moderate Reddit. Read-only works without auth; posting/moderation requires OAuth setup.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering OAuth and OpenID Connect. It works with Reddit and Bash. The repository describes itself as: Searchable Claude Code skills catalog with source-linked guides and generated registry artifacts. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve OAuth and OpenID Connect

Example prompts

  • “/reddit”

Requirements

  • A credential in REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET

Workflow steps

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

  1. Go to https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps
  2. Click "create another app..."
  3. Select "script" type
  4. Set redirect URI to http://localhost:8080
  5. Note your client ID (under app name) and client secret
  6. Set environment variables

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2d14a69. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • reddit.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET
    • REDDIT_PASSWORD

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

Context cost

Reddit loads about 715 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 30 tokens; SKILL.md has 117 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~30
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~715

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.

  • Token stored at ~/.reddit-token.json (auto-refreshes)
  • Rate limits: ~60 requests/minute for OAuth, ~10/minute for unauthenticated
