What this page is
This page quotes r/openclaw's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-10-12. The quoted text is the community's; the verdict above is our reading of it. Conditions often decide whether a post fits (a required thread, flair, posting day, account age or karma), and r/openclaw's current rules on Reddit always win over this page.
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.
Want to post here? Get ThreadFox ($49): your AI (Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex) reads a community's current rules, writes one post that fits and posts once from your own Chrome. No Claude? We'll post for you ($49 per 30-day campaign). Free: a Reddit launch plan for your product, ThreadFox Lite or the posting checklist by email.

What its rules say about promotion
No self-promotion
Self-promotion is allowed for free, open-source projects shared only through GitHub or ClawHub under rule 6. Projects must be built with OpenClaw, built for it, or clearly useful to its users, with code anyone can review. Explain what it does, how to use it, how OpenClaw users benefit, and whether data is collected or shared. Other self-promotion is not allowed.
Self-promotion exception: GitHub & ClawHub
We'd love to see projects built with OpenClaw, for it, or clearly useful to its users! Follow these guidelines and we won't remove your post even if it's self-promotion. This is an exception to rule 4. Please link only to GitHub or ClawHub, with open-source code anyone can review. Tell us what it does, how to use it, and how OpenClaw users benefit. Disclose whether data is collected or shared. No paid products. https://www.reddit.com/r/openclaw/s/Y7mWNcXptj

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- Unpublished minimums.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.
