- Lemon favicon and branding (scraping = squeezing) - Animated background blobs with gradient colors - Glassmorphism cards with backdrop blur - Gradient text, bouncy lemon animations - Vibrant lemon/orange/pink/purple color palette - Space Grotesk font for bold Gen Alpha typography - Smooth micro-interactions and hover effects - Light/dark themes both updated https://claude.ai/code/session_01JS12oCAdiNAGoSr7NhmNzU
- Added 3-step "How it works" onboarding section - Info tooltip (?) badges on Sort, Posts per sort, Time filter, Keywords - Detailed title tooltips on every toggle explaining what each does - Export hint section explaining CSV vs JSON formats for researchers - Updated hero copy for academic research focus - Subtitle text under Settings and Results headers - Research-friendly footer with privacy note (all processing in browser) - Responsive layout for new elements on mobile https://claude.ai/code/session_01JS12oCAdiNAGoSr7NhmNzU
- Switch primary endpoint from www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com (less aggressive blocking) - Add comprehensive browser-like headers (Sec-Fetch-*, Sec-Ch-Ua, etc.) - Add OAuth fallback: if REDDIT_CLIENT_ID and REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET env vars are set, uses Reddit's OAuth API (oauth.reddit.com) as the primary strategy - Try multiple base URLs before giving up (old.reddit.com → www.reddit.com) - Detect HTML responses (blocked pages) and fall through to next strategy - Truncate error messages to avoid dumping huge HTML into the UI - Provide actionable error message guiding users to set up OAuth credentials if all public endpoints fail https://claude.ai/code/session_01JS12oCAdiNAGoSr7NhmNzU
The workflow now gracefully handles the case where gh pr create fails because a PR was previously merged or closed for this branch, instead of failing the entire job. https://claude.ai/code/session_01JS12oCAdiNAGoSr7NhmNzU
…oints Reddit now blocks all unauthenticated requests from server IPs (403). The scraper was falling back to public JSON endpoints which always fail. Changes: - scrape.mjs: Remove public endpoint fallback, use OAuth API exclusively - scrape.mjs: Clear error messages when credentials are missing or invalid - scrape.mjs: Handle 401 token expiry with automatic refresh - index.html: Update copy to reflect OAuth API usage To make it work, set REDDIT_CLIENT_ID and REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET in Netlify dashboard (Site Settings > Environment Variables). Get free credentials at reddit.com/prefs/apps (script type app). https://claude.ai/code/session_01JS12oCAdiNAGoSr7NhmNzU
Reddit blocks unauthenticated requests from server IPs and the user
cannot create Reddit API credentials. Switch to PullPush.io, a free
Reddit data mirror that requires no authentication.
- Submissions via api.pullpush.io/reddit/search/submission/
- Comments via api.pullpush.io/reddit/search/comment/
- Pagination uses Unix timestamps (before param) instead of Reddit tokens
- Rate limit handling with exponential backoff
- Same response format {posts, after, done} for frontend compatibility

- Rewrote README to describe a general-purpose subreddit scraper - Removed all references to specific subreddits and research topics - Updated package.json name/description to match - Fixed footer (was still referencing OAuth API, now says no API keys) https://claude.ai/code/session_01JS12oCAdiNAGoSr7NhmNzU

…re, academic fields Critical fixes: - #1 Thread-level scraping: paste a post URL and get the post + all comments instantly. Auto-detected from input — no new UI needed - #2 Add Hot, Controversial, Rising sort modes (Controversial is key for polarization research) - #3 Time filter greys out when neither Top nor Controversial is active - #5 Partial data on Stop: always shows download buttons with message "Stopped at X posts. Partial data available below." Academic data fields added (#7): - Posts: edited, distinguished, is_crosspost, crosspost_subreddit, total_awards_received, gilded - Comments: depth (nesting level), edited, distinguished, controversiality UX improvements: - #10 Progressive disclosure: options panel hidden until Analyze completes. No more wall of options on first load - #11 Keyword analysis moved under "Advanced" collapsible section - #12 Single primary download button "Download for R/Python (Combined CSV)" with other formats under collapsible - #13 CTA renamed to "Squeeze Data" for clarity - #4 Post limit capped at 1000 with visible note - #8 Specific error messages for 404/403 (not found, private) - #9 Input accepts post URLs, subreddit URLs, r/prefix, plain names https://claude.ai/code/session_01JS12oCAdiNAGoSr7NhmNzU
