Output: Publish-Ready Copy
This skill enables agents to generate Reddit post copy (title + body) that respects platform rules and community culture. Output is subreddit-aware and engagement-optimized.
Core Rules
| Rule | Practice |
|---|---|
| 90/10 principle | 90% value, 10% promotional |
| Self-promotion | Max 1 in 6 posts promotional |
| Subreddit rules | Always check sidebar before posting |
| Flair | Required by many subs; wrong flair = removal |
| Title format | Some subs require [tags]; check top posts |
Post Structure
Title
- Concise, specific, accurate--no clickbait
- Match subreddit format (e.g., [Discussion], [Question])
- Factual; save opinions for body/comments
Body
- Value-first: Lead with help, insight, or story
- Casual, friendly tone--like talking to a friend
- Engagement: Open-ended questions, invite discussion
- Formatting: Markdown supported; use lists, headers for readability
Content Types
| Type | Use |
|---|---|
| Experience sharing | Highest engagement; authentic stories |
| Q&A | Build trust; answer questions |
| Case study | Product value; must be transparent |
| Tool recommendation | Context + honest pros/cons |
Algorithm Factors
- Upvote/downvote ratio matters more than raw score
- Early engagement weighs more; post at peak hours
- Karma: 100-1000+ recommended before promotional posts
- Author interaction: Reply to comments; boosts ranking
