Been digging through the Stacker News GitHub repo and noticed how straightforward the codebase is for tinkering. Got me thinking —has anyone here tried building scripts or bots to interact with SN directly?

Not talking about spam or abuse, but automating legit stuff like:

Posting daily threads

Pulling top stories for archiving

Auto-commenting with data from an external source

I’m experimenting with Termux + Node right now, but wondering if anyone has already gone down this rabbit hole. Could save me a few headaches before I reinvent the wheel.

Anyone willing to share their approach or any pitfalls to avoid?
