Reddit Karma Loop on a Forkable Claude Code MicroVM

Loopany Episode 1 Reddit karma pattern for Claude Code: personal wiki, hard filters, account ledger, OpenCLI. Draft-first. No free trial.

Most Reddit agent loops post slop.

Generic answers. Posts at :00 on the dot. No memory of what worked last week.

Jason Zhou published the opposite: Loop Engineering Episode 1 — a Reddit karma loop with real numbers (about 0 → 95 comment karma in a week on a personal account) and five concrete leverages.

This is that loop on a managed Claude Code microVM. You fork it. You own the box.

The five leverages (already in the skill)

  1. Personal wiki — the agent may only cite positions you documented under ~/wiki/.
  2. Thread filtering — prefer per-sub new, kill occupied angles, skip hostile rooms.
  3. Right tools — OpenCLI under $HOME for live Reddit through your browser session.
  4. Random cadence — shared ledger (≥21 min gap, ≤5/day) plus a slot lottery so most ticks stay silent.
  5. Reflect & evolve — weekly strategy notes from real scores, not vibes.

Karma is a by-product of being useful. Zero self-promo in comments from this loop.

The 90-second demo (no Reddit login)

After you fork and open the terminal:

Run one dry reddit-karma cycle offline using
~/.claude/skills/reddit-karma-loop/assets/fixtures/sample-threads.yaml
and the seed wiki. Write RC cards + a run log under ~/reddit-karma/runs/.
Do not post. Show which threads passed/failed the gate and why.

You should see threads fail for age, hostility, or occupied angles — and at least one pure-value draft. Skipping is the product.

What lands in the fork

You getWhere
Orchestrator skill~/.claude/skills/reddit-karma-loop/
Ledger / lottery / gate scripts…/scripts/*.sh
Seed wiki + topic index~/wiki/
Account ledger + config~/reddit-karma/
OpenCLI (local npm)~/tools/opencli/
Offline fixturesskill assets/fixtures/

Default config keeps posting_mode: draft-for-review.

BYOK / live path

  1. Log into Claude Code with your Anthropic account (or export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY in the shell — never into skills).
  2. Offline demo needs zero Reddit setup.
  3. Live posts: OpenCLI Browser Bridge, Reddit login in Chrome, smoke opencli reddit whoami, then stay draft-first until you trust the voice.

Who should fork this

Yes: founders who will maintain a real personal wiki and want careful Reddit presence.

No: volume spam, multi-account schemes, or "set and forget" bots with no human review.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Loopany Reddit karma loop?
A pure-value Reddit comment loop from Loopany's Loop Engineering Episode 1. It grounds replies in a personal wiki, filters threads hard, enforces account-level caps, and treats karma as a by-product of being useful. Jason Zhou published real weekly numbers on a personal account.
What does the jurniti template include?
A public Claude Code template. After you fork: the reddit-karma-loop skill, seed wiki under ~/wiki/, shared account ledger, slot lottery and quality-gate scripts, offline fixtures, and OpenCLI installed under ~/tools/opencli. Default mode is draft-for-review.
Is there a free trial?
No free trial and no free tier. Forking provisions a paid plan. The first purchase includes a 30-day money-back guarantee. Model spend and any Reddit risk stay yours.
Does the agent auto-post to Reddit?
Not by default. posting_mode is draft-for-review until you explicitly flip it after sign-off. Live posts need OpenCLI plus your logged-in browser bridge.
Who is this for?
Founders warming a personal Reddit account with real expertise. It is not for multi-account spam or mass scaling.
What credentials do I need?
Claude Code login or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY at runtime. For live Reddit: OpenCLI Browser Bridge and a logged-in Chrome session. Never paste keys or cookies into skills or the wiki.
How is this different from Mine Reddit for the Ad Angle?
Ad-angle mining turns Reddit pain into ad scripts. This template posts (or drafts) pure-value comments to build presence and karma carefully. Different job, same platform.
