What does the reddit skill do?
Search and retrieve content from Reddit. Get posts, comments, subreddit info, and user profiles via the public JSON API. Use when user mentions Reddit, a subreddit, or r/ links.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add ReScienceLab/opc-skills --skill reddit --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From ReScienceLab/opc-skills, a repository with 1,192 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
