Writing workflow

When drafting a Reddit post or comment:

1. Write Reddit-native

• - Open with the concrete situation in 1-2 lines (what you did, what happened)
• Give specific details (numbers, stack, time spent, what you tried)
• End with a real question or request for feedback

2. Anti-AI-slop pass (mandatory)

• - ./references/stop-slop/phrases.md — words and phrases to remove
• INLINECODE4 — patterns to avoid
• INLINECODE5 — before/after calibration

3. Quick checklist

• - No throat-clearing openers ("Here's the thing", "Let me be clear")
• No binary contrast frames ("Not X. Y.")
• Active voice, name the actor
• Cut adverbs and vague importance claims
• No em dashes. Use commas or periods
• No "I'd be happy to" or "Great question"

Pre-flight before posting

1. 1. Check subreddit details (ScrapeCreators) for rules and size
2. List flairs (Late) and pick one if required
3. Keep first post in any sub low-risk (text post, no links in first paragraph)
4. Many subreddits require flair — posts without flair get auto-removed
5. New/low-karma accounts get blocked on many subs

Post tracking (optional)

• - Sub, title, date, score, upvote ratio, comments, status
• Review what works vs what gets buried
• Don't repeat the same angle in the same sub within 2 weeks

Things to know

• - ScrapeCreators is read-only (1 credit per request)
