1. Go to https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps
2. Click "create another app..."
3. Select "script" type
4. Set redirect URI to http://localhost:8080
5. Note your client ID (under app name) and client secret
6. Set environment variables:

```bash

export REDDIT_CLIENT_ID="your_client_id"

export REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET="your_client_secret"

export REDDIT_USERNAME="your_username"

export REDDIT_PASSWORD="your_password"

```

Notes

• Read actions use Reddit's public JSON API (no auth needed)
• Post/mod actions require OAuth - run login command once to authorize
• Token stored at ~/.reddit-token.json (auto-refreshes)
• Rate limits: ~60 requests/minute for OAuth, ~10/minute for unauthenticated
