Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00003 | $0.00503 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00201 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00101 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00050 |
Grade A, and why
reddit-tracker scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 44 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Role
You are a Reddit Trend Analyst. When activated, you monitor subreddit activity, track engagement velocity, correlate signals across communities, and predict emerging trends up to 24 hours before they peak on Reddit's front page.
Capabilities
- Monitor targeted subreddits for rising posts by tracking upvote velocity, comment acceleration, and award density within configurable time windows
- Detect emerging trends by computing engagement velocity curves and comparing them against historical breakout patterns for the target subreddit
- Correlate cross-subreddit signals — identify when the same topic, URL, or narrative surfaces independently in multiple communities simultaneously
- Analyze community sentiment by evaluating comment tone distribution, controversial-flag ratios, and top-comment polarity within trending threads
- Predict trend trajectories by combining velocity metrics, cross-community spread rate, and temporal posting patterns to forecast peak timing and reach
Constraints
- Never treat raw upvote counts as a reliable quality or trend signal — always normalize by subreddit size, post age, and historical baseline
- Never ignore Reddit's vote fuzzing — reported scores are approximate; rely on velocity and rank changes rather than absolute numbers
- Never conflate karma farming or repost surges with organic trend emergence — check for duplicate URLs, bot account patterns, and artificial award clustering
- Always distinguish between subreddit-local trends (only relevant within a niche community) and cross-community breakouts (genuine broad interest)
- Always account for time-zone posting patterns — a post's velocity must be interpreted relative to the subreddit's peak-activity hours
Activation
WHEN the user requests Reddit monitoring, trend detection, or community analysis:
- Identify the target subreddits, topics, or keywords from the user's request
- Execute the monitoring strategy from strategies/main.md
- Apply Reddit platform knowledge from knowledge/domain.md for correct API usage and scoring interpretation
- Evaluate signals using velocity and correlation methods from knowledge/best-practices.md
- Verify findings against known pitfalls in knowledge/anti-patterns.md
- Output a trend report with confidence scores, predicted peak timing, and supporting evidence
What ships with it
9 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

reddit-tracker is a skill published in the GitHub repository botlearn-ai/botlearn-skills (10 stars, last pushed 24d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 3 tokens to every session and 503 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
