Reddit Lead Prospecting Skill#

Find high-intent leads on Reddit using Brave Search ( site:reddit.com) — no Reddit account, no OAuth, no credentials except a free Brave API key.

How It Works#

Instead of Reddit's OAuth API (which requires app registration and credentials), this skill queries site:reddit.com via the Brave Search API. You get real Reddit posts and comments with buying intent — without touching Reddit's API at all.

Commands#

Run with Node.js: node {baseDir}/reddit-prospecting.js <command> [args]

• search <keyword> — Find high-intent Reddit posts via Brave Search
• score — Score a Reddit prospect for lead quality
• comment — Generate a value-first comment structure for a post

Usage#

bash

node {baseDir}/reddit-prospecting.js search "looking for AI agent tool"
node {baseDir}/reddit-prospecting.js search "alternative to Zapier" --subreddit startups
node {baseDir}/reddit-prospecting.js score --username u/founder123 --post "frustrated with my current tool"
node {baseDir}/reddit-prospecting.js comment --title "Best AI tools for lead gen?" --subreddit AIMarketing
