What this page is

Free, for a specific product: a researched Reddit plan by email (communities whose rules fit your post, quoted and dated), or ThreadFox Lite, read-only tools an AI assistant can use to read a community's current rules itself, through your own Chrome (Claude Code: claude mcp add threadfox-lite -- uvx threadfox-lite). For an assistant that also writes and posts within each community's rules, the ThreadFox kit is $49 once.

its rules on Reddit

The subreddit for discussion about building magic systems for fantasy worlds.

All 4 rules of r/magicbuilding

No Harassment, Be Civil
Critique ideas, not people. ("This mechanic feels unbalanced because…" ✅ / "Your system is trash." ❌) Any bullying, harassment, bigotry, elitism, and other categories of hate speech, etc, will result in a ban at the discretion of the subreddits moderators. Please report any instances of such to mods.
Stay On-Topic
All posts and comments must relate to magic system creation, analysis, or discussion (e.g., mechanics, lore, limitations). Allowed: "How can I balance a blood magic system?" Not Allowed: "Check out my fantasy novel’s battle scenes!" (Try r/fantasywriters.)
No Low-Effort Posts
Posts must provide enough detail for meaningful engagement amongst subreddit members. Include: Rules, examples, or specific questions. Post Removal: “How do I make magic cool?" (Too vague of a question.)
No Memes/Joke Posts
Posts that are strictly memes are not allowed. Exception: Satire that sparks magic-building discussion (mod discretion). 🦍

What the written rules don't show

Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.

Let your AI read the rules before it posts.

ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
