Run Reddit from a chat message
OpenClaw executes the postqueen CLI on your own machine, so a single message can create, schedule or reschedule Reddit posts with no dashboard open.
RedditAutomate Reddit with OpenClaw
Message your agent from the chat apps you already use and it drafts, schedules and publishes Reddit posts through postqueen while you get on with your day.
Quick start
Install the postqueen CLI on the machine OpenClaw runs on, then drive Reddit from any chat thread.
Terminal
# Give OpenClaw the postqueen CLInpm install -g postqueenexport POSTQUEEN_API_KEY=your_api_key # Then message your agent:# "Draft three Reddit posts about our# launch and schedule them for this week"What OpenClaw can run on Reddit
Windows that fit Reddit
Tell OpenClaw when your subreddits are busiest and it schedules posts into that window on Reddit, day after day, without reminders.
Community rules respected
OpenClaw 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 OpenClaw 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
Discover Reddit
OpenClaw calls postqueen to list your connected subreddits and sees what Reddit supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.
Draft with OpenClaw
Give it the brief. The agent writes Reddit-shaped posts and proposes publish times that match when your community members are around.
Check and publish
Look over the queue on the postqueen calendar and change anything you want. postqueen publishes each post at its time, and OpenClaw can pull the results after.
What Reddit allows
OpenClaw reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.

F.A.Q.
Frequently asked questions
How does OpenClaw connect Reddit to postqueen?
Install the postqueen CLI where OpenClaw runs commands and export your API key. Every command returns JSON, so the agent can create, schedule and list Reddit posts reliably.
Can OpenClaw 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 OpenClaw 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 OpenClaw can turn the same brief into Reddit posts plus adapted versions for every other channel you run.
Does OpenClaw 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.
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.
What do I need to connect Reddit?
Just your Reddit account, authorized through the official OAuth flow. postqueen posts with exactly the permissions your account has, so you can submit anywhere Reddit lets you post and nowhere it does not.
