Summary

Reddit account cultivation for founders and indie developers. Uses AppleScript to control real Chrome — undetectable by anti-bot systems. Checks karma, finds rising posts, drafts comments, and posts directly. Triggers on "/reddit-cultivate", "check my reddit", "reddit maintenance

1	# Reddit Cultivation Skill (AppleScript Chrome Control)
2
3	Build and maintain Reddit presence by controlling your real Chrome browser via AppleScript. No Playwright, no Selenium, no API tokens.
4
5	---
6
7	## How It Works
8
9	```
10	Claude Code → osascript → Chrome (real browser, logged in) → Reddit
11	```
12
13	- AppleScript executes JavaScript in Chrome's active tab
14	- Chrome is already logged into Reddit → cookies sent automatically
15	- Same-origin fetch → no CORS, no detection, no IP blocks
16	- Reddit cannot distinguish this from human browsing
17
18	---
19
20	## Prerequisites
21
22	- macOS only (AppleScript is a macOS technology)
23	- Chrome: View → Developer → Allow JavaScript from Apple Events ✓ (restart Chrome after enabling)
24	- User logged into Reddit in Chrome
25
26	---
27
28	## Method Detection (Run First)
29
30	Chrome multi-profile can cause AppleScript to not see windows. Always detect first:
31
32	```bash
33	WINDOWS=$(osascript -e 'tell application "Google Chrome" to return count of windows' 2>/dev/null)
34	if [ "$WINDOWS" = "0" ] \|\| [ -z "$WINDOWS" ]; then
35	echo "Use Method 2 (System Events + Console)"
36	else
37	echo "Use Method 1 (execute javascript)"
38	fi
39	```
40
41	---
42
43	## Method 1: AppleScript Execute JavaScript (Preferred)
44
45	Works when `count of windows > 0`.
46
47	### Navigate
48
49	```bash
50	osascript -e 'tell application "Google Chrome" to tell active tab of first window to set URL to "https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/rising/"'
51	```
52
53	### Execute JS & Read Result (document.title trick)
54
55	```bash
56	# Run JS that writes result to document.title
57	osascript -e 'tell application "Google Chrome" to tell active tab of first window to execute javascript "fetch(\"/api/me.json\",{credentials:\"include\"}).then(r=>r.json()).then(d=>{document.title=\"R:\"+JSON.stringify({name:d.data.name,karma:d.data.total_karma})})"'
58
59	# Wait, then read title
60	sleep 2
61	osascript -e 'tell application "Google Chrome" to return title of active tab of first window'
62	```
63
64	### JXA for Complex JS (avoids escaping hell)
65
66	```bash
67	osascript -l JavaScript -e '
68	var chrome = Application("Google Chrome");
69	var tab = chrome.windows[0].activeTab;
70	tab.execute({javascript: "(" + function() {
71	// Complex JS here — no escaping needed
72	fetch("/r/SideProject/rising.json?limit=10", {credentials: "include"})
73	.then(r => r.json())
74	.then(d => {
75	var posts = d.data.children.map(p => ({
76	title: p.data.title.substring(0, 60),
77	score: p.data.score,
78	comments: p.data.num_comments,
79	id: p.data.name,
80	url: "https://reddit.com" + p.data.permalink
81	}));
82	document.title = "POSTS:" + JSON.stringify(posts);
83	});
84	} + ")();"});
85	'
86	```
87
88	---
89
90	## Method 2: System Events + Console (Multi-Profile Fallback)
91
92	When AppleScript can't see Chrome windows (multi-profile bug), use keyboard automation.
93
94	### Step 1: Copy JS to Clipboard
95
96	```bash
97	python3 -c "
98	import subprocess
99	js = '''(async()=>{
100	let resp = await fetch('/api/me.json', {credentials: 'include'});
101	let data = await resp.json();
102	document.title = 'R:' + JSON.stringify({name: data.data.name, karma: data.data.total_karma});
103	})()'''
104	subprocess.run(['pbcopy'], input=js.encode(), check=True)
105	"
106	```
107
108	### Step 2: Execute via Chrome Console Keyboard Shortcuts
109
110	```bash
111	osascript -e '
112	tell application "System Events"
113	tell process "Google Chrome"
114	set frontmost to true
115	delay 0.3
116	-- Cmd+Option+J = open/close Console
117	key code 38 using {command down, option down}
118	delay 1
119	-- Select all + Paste + Enter
120	keystroke "a" using {command down}
121	delay 0.2
122	keystroke "v" using {command down}
123	delay 0.5
124	key code 36
125	delay 0.3
126	-- Close Console
127	key code 38 using {command down, option down}
128	end tell
129	end tell'
130	```
131
132	### Step 3: Read Title via System Events
133
134	```bash
135	sleep 3
136	osascript -e '
137	tell application "System Events"
138	tell process "Google Chrome"
139	return name of window 1
140	end tell
141	end tell'
142	```
143
144	---
145
146	## Workflow
147
148	### Step 1: Check Account Status
149
150	Get username, karma, verify login using `/api/me.json`.
151
152	### Step 2: Scan Rising Posts
153
154	For each tar
