Check setup for my AI and computer
Will it work with my setup?
Choose your AI client and computer to see the steps before you buy. Your AI plan is separate; ThreadFox runs locally through your Chrome.
Claude Desktop · install the extension
- Use a Claude Desktop build that supports local extensions. From your private buyer library, download
ThreadFox.mcpb, open it with Claude and click Install. - Start a new regular chat. Desktop supplies Python; ThreadFox prepares Node.js if needed. The Code view uses the terminal path instead.
- Add Microsoft’s Playwright Extension to your Chrome, sign in to Reddit, then choose Set up ThreadFox under + or type
set up ThreadFox.
Linux: Claude Desktop is in beta. Confirm your build offers local extension installation. If opening the file does not offer Install, choose Claude Code or Codex and use the terminal route. Current Linux requirements.
Claude Code or Codex · use your library’s installer
- Install and sign in to your AI client on this computer first. It must support local tools.
- From your private library, copy the command for your system into PowerShell on Windows, or Terminal on macOS/Linux. Keep the full command private. It installs the tools and registers the supported clients it finds.
- Restart the AI client. Add Microsoft’s Playwright Extension to Chrome, sign in to Reddit, and ask your AI to
set up ThreadFox.
The installer uses Python 3.10+ and Node.js 18+, or downloads checksum-verified copies for supported systems. No administrator rights are needed for the ThreadFox installer. Keep the AI client and Chrome on the same computer.
Use a computer to run the tools
A phone or browser-only chat can read your library and claim the included Launch Pack, but cannot run these local tools. The pack is a one-product plan and three drafts, emailed within 24 hours of your library claim.
Continue on a computer with Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex. If you want our team to run the campaign, Managed is a separate service.
Ready means: after the first Chrome tab-selection prompt, the tool check passes and your AI shows the intended Reddit username. Installing a client alone does not prove the connection. Keep normal permission prompts enabled.

For Firstlight
Where you can post Firstlight
We looked Firstlight up from your post in r/IMadeThis. Not yours? Look up your own product (the kind, online shops and products, is our guess).
15 communities’ rules allow a post about it; the 8 that fit best are below.
Your plan for Firstlight
Firstlight is a small beta product-launch community where approved launches enter a seven-day rotation, and likes, followers or payment don't boost ranking.
r/betatests 17,768 members
It allows a post about it on its stated conditions
Why it fits: It is where makers who have their own product and are looking for testers post, and you are recruiting makers to test Firstlight.
What it expects, an opening angle, what gets it removed
- What it expects
- Put a category in your title, such as "[opportunity]" for an open beta sign-up. Your account must be at least 24 hours old with at least 2 combined karma.
- An opening angle
- Invite makers to try one task, creating a private product draft with a screenshot and a question, and tell you where they got stuck.
- What gets a post removed
- Spam or low-effort posts are not allowed, and a post without one of the listed title categories goes against what the community asks.
Its rule, word for word:
“If you have your own product and are looking for testers, feel free to post it here!”
- “All products are welcome.”
- “If you make a post, please use one of the following categories in the title:”
- “[opportunity] - Open beta test sign up links”

- What it expects
- Your launch post must include "at least one image or video" of your product, such as a screenshot, along with your text description.
- An opening angle

Rules read Sep 26 · its rules on Reddit
All of them on our online shops and products list.
A missing rule is not permission, and a community's current rules always win.
Making something else? Look up your own product
A few things before you start.
What do I need?
A computer, Chrome, your Reddit account and Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex. Your AI service is separate. This is a toolkit that runs with your AI on your computer; a phone alone is not enough. Watch the setup walkthrough.
What arrives after payment?
Your private library with the ThreadFox installer and connection guide. Connect your AI and Chrome, give it your business brief and let it carry out the outreach you authorize. Claim your included Launch Pack there: a researched community plan and three tailored post drafts for one product, emailed within 24 hours of your claim.
Will it post automatically?
Yes. Once connected, your AI can research, write, publish and follow up within the permissions you give it. ThreadFox supplies the tools and workflow; your AI client runs the job. Keep the required computer and client running for active work. Community rules, account restrictions and your client's permission prompts still apply.
What if it is not for me?
The kit has a 30-day self-service refund. Your free plan stays free. If you want a team to run the campaign instead, Managed starts at $49 for 30 days.
Does this guarantee customers?
No. The demo proves that the tools can publish a post and reply. Results depend on your offer, the conversations available and how people respond. See our recorded runs.
