Automate Reddit with Gemini CLI

Queue Reddit posts from the terminal. Gemini CLI runs every postqueen command and reads the JSON back, so it can check what it scheduled.

Quick start

Run the postqueen CLI directly, or add the MCP endpoint to your Gemini CLI settings and ask for Reddit posts in plain language.

MCP supported
Terminal or settings.json
npm install -g postqueen
export POSTQUEEN_API_KEY=your_api_key
 
# Or MCP, in your Gemini CLI settings:
# { "mcpServers": { "postqueen": {
# "url": "https://api.postqueen.ai/mcp/KEY"
# } } }

What Gemini CLI can run on Reddit

Reddit commands it can verify

Gemini CLI runs postqueen and reads the JSON back, so it can confirm which Reddit posts exist and at what times instead of reporting success it did not check.

Windows that fit Reddit

Tell Gemini CLI when your subreddits are busiest and it schedules posts into that window on Reddit, day after day, without reminders.

Community rules respected

Gemini CLI targets the exact subreddits you choose and keeps every submission reviewable, so you can check each one against community rules first.

Drafts until you are ready

Ask Gemini CLI for drafts only. They sit on the postqueen calendar unscheduled, so you can edit them and pick the time yourself, and nothing reaches your community members on Reddit until you do.

Three steps to a full queue

Step 1

Discover Reddit

Gemini CLI calls postqueen to list your connected subreddits and sees what Reddit supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.

Step 2

Draft with Gemini CLI

Give it the brief. The agent writes Reddit-shaped posts and proposes publish times that match when your community members are around.

Step 3

Check and publish

Look over the queue on the postqueen calendar and change anything you want. postqueen publishes each post at its time, and Gemini CLI can pull the results after.

What Reddit allows

Gemini CLI reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.

Frequently asked questions

How does Gemini CLI connect Reddit to postqueen?

Over MCP, registered once in Gemini CLI's own config so the Reddit tools are there in every session. It also runs commands, so the CLI covers the same Reddit posts when you would rather script them; both use the same API key.

Can Gemini CLI schedule Reddit posts at exact times?

Yes. Give it exact slots or a rule like mornings at nine and it sets publish times on the posts it creates, keeping your subreddits active on a steady rhythm.

Will Gemini CLI publish to Reddit on its own?

Only if you ask it to. Tell it to save drafts and nothing is scheduled: the posts wait on the calendar until you set a time. Tell it to schedule, and they go out at the times you can see, which is the setup most people move to once they trust the output.

Can one brief cover Reddit and other channels too?

Yes. postqueen connects 30 channels, so Gemini CLI can turn the same brief into Reddit posts plus adapted versions for every other channel you run.

Does Gemini CLI access cost extra on postqueen?

No. The agent uses your regular API key and plan limits: unlimited posts on every plan, and channel counts from 5 on Creator up to uncapped on Ultimate.

Can I try Reddit scheduling for free?

Yes. Cloud plans start with a 7-day free trial and unlimited posts, cancel anytime. The open source version is free to self-host if you prefer your own infrastructure.

What Reddit formats can postqueen schedule?

Text posts up to 40,000 characters, link posts, single images, galleries and video, submitted to the subreddits you choose. Long form writing is a Reddit strength, so the composer is comfortable with big posts.
