What is the Reddit Answers skill?
The Reddit Answers skill is how Moonrank's Reddit Agent turns a channel most companies get banned from into durable distribution: finding the threads that rank and get cited, qualifying which ones you can genuinely help with, and answering with disclosure instead of disguise.
It's written as a SKILL.md, a plain-language instruction format that people and AI agents can both follow. Read it to set the rules for your own team, or let the Reddit Agent surface the threads and draft the answers.
Downloading the playbook is free with a Moonrank account. Monitoring your category's subreddits continuously is what the Reddit Agent does for you.
See it in action
“There's a Reddit thread ranking above us for our main keyword and we're not in it. Can we fix that?”
That thread is four years old, ranks second, and is cited by Perplexity when people ask for tools in your category. Six of the eleven recommendations in it are dead products. Post one comment that updates the landscape honestly — including the two competitors that genuinely fit better for smaller teams — and disclose in the same line. That's the whole play.
From input to fix list
- 1
You name your category
The category you sell into, and the subreddits your buyers actually read.
- 2
Moonrank finds the threads
The Reddit Agent surfaces recommendation threads that rank on Google or get cited by AI.
- 3
It qualifies each one
Only threads where you genuinely know more than the thread does make the list.
- 4
It drafts the answer
The poster's problem solved completely, affiliation disclosed once, in the same comment.
Everything it checks
Thread discovery
Recommendation and comparison threads, including old ones that still rank.
Subreddit rule check
Self-promotion rules read before anything is written, per subreddit.
Fit qualification
Strong, partial, or none — and saying "none" out loud when that's the truth.
Answer-first drafting
The poster's problem solved completely, even when the answer isn't your product.
Plain disclosure
Your affiliation stated once, in the same comment. Never in a follow-up.
Citation tracking
Which threads rank, get cited by AI assistants, and send qualified traffic.
When to reach for it
- Get into the "best tools for X" threads that outrank your own pages.
- Be present where AI assistants source their recommendations.
- Answer buyer objections in public, where the next buyer will read them.
- Build category credibility without getting your account banned.
- Find the old threads still sending traffic to dead competitors.
