🧭 Reddit Feature-Request & Regression Cluster Feed

Turn public product discussions into a focused signal review. Group public Reddit posts and available comments into evidence-linked feature-request, regression, and bug-report clusters. Start with a small bounded sample, then schedule only a scope you have reviewed.

🧩 Clustered signals Review related requests and issues as compact clusters.

🔗 Source evidence Keep direct public links, excerpts, and patterns beside each finding.

📏 Coverage accounting See which reported comments the bounded run could account for.

📡 Repeatable scope Use a stable scope identifier for careful recurring reviews.

This private-validation Actor collects a bounded sample of publicly reachable Reddit discussions. It is designed for product teams and researchers who need reviewable customer signals, not a complete Reddit archive. The cloud-safe prefill uses US residential proxy for listing-only collection. The prefilled VS Code and vscode values are only a working example. Replace them with your product and community before running.

Comments are optional deepening. Turning them on can produce PARTIAL coverage when public comment pages or continuations cannot be fully collected. Local users can test direct access by disabling the proxy. Proxy traffic costs apply.

🎯 What you can do

• I am a product manager reviewing recurring requests before I plan a roadmap discussion.
• I am a support lead separating likely regressions from general feature requests.
• I am a researcher preserving public source links and short evidence excerpts for a findings log.
• I am an automation builder using a bounded scope to review changed clusters over time.

🚀 How it works

STEP 1 Set a small public scope Choose your product name, communities, signal types, and safe limits.

STEP 2 Review the evidence Inspect source links, excerpts, counts, and comment-completeness fields for each cluster.

STEP 3 Repeat the same scope Use the run summary to confirm whether a complete run updated its saved comparison point.

🧭 Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
productName	string	No	Product label and focus term. The VS Code default is an editable example.
subreddits	array of strings	No	Public subreddit names without r/. The vscode default is an editable example.
eventTypes	enum	No	Include feature requests, regressions, bug reports, or a selected subset.
keywords	array of strings	No	Optional words or phrases that narrow public listing and discussion evidence.
lookbackDays	integer	No	Recent listing window, up to 365 days when a public listing gives a timestamp.
includeComments	boolean	No	Optional comment deepening. The cloud-safe prefill stays listing-only; enabled comments may have PARTIAL coverage.
maxPosts	integer	No	Maximum matching posts processed across the selected communities.
maxListingPages	integer	No	Listing-page cap for each selected community.
maxCommentsPerPost	integer	No	Available public-comment cap for each processed post.
maxContinuationPagesPerPost	integer	No	Additional public comment-page cap for each processed post.
resolutionRuns	integer	No	Consecutive successful runs in which a prior cluster is absent before it can become RESOLVED.
maxConcurrency	integer	No	Public pages collected at once. The default is one.
maxRequestsPerMinute	integer	No	Hard request-rate cap across the run.
proxyConfiguration	object	No	Cloud-safe US residential proxy prefill for listing-only collection. Local users can test direct by disabling it. Proxy traffic costs apply.

📊 Data table

Field	Type	Description
clusterId	string	Stable identifier for the cluster within its normalized scope.
eventType	string	FEATURE_REQUEST, REGRESSION, or BUG_REPORT.
status	string	Source-backed cluster status when the available public evidence supports one.
productName	string	Product label used for this run.
subreddits	array	Public communities contributing evidence.
label	string	Short cluster label.
summary	string	Concise evidence-grounded cluster summary when available.
signalCount, postCount, commentCount	number	Total signals, source posts, and comments contributing explicit evidence.
score	number	Deterministic priority score for the available evidence. It is not a Reddit score.
firstSeenAt, lastSeenAt, scrapedAt	string	Cluster timing and collection timestamps.
sourceUrls	array	Direct public Reddit source links.
evidenceExcerpts, evidencePatterns	array	Short available excerpts and the patterns supporting the cluster.
completeness	string	Comment-coverage status for the bounded collection.
reportedCommentCount	number	Comment count reported by the public post when available.
accountedCommentCount	number	Public comments the run actually accounted for within its limits.
missingCommentCount	number	Reported comments not accounted for because of availability or configured caps.
monitoringConfigId	string	Identifier derived from the normalized monitoring scope.
fingerprint	string	Deterministic content fingerprint used to compare the same cluster across runs.

🗂️ Output views

• 🔎 Cluster overview: review every returned cluster with signal, source, and time context.
• 📡 Monitoring audit: inspect coverage accounting, scope identifiers, and timestamps.

Every run also writes a non-chargeable OUTPUT summary. When you repeat the same scope, a complete run compares results with a private saved baseline and then updates that baseline. Partial or failed runs do not update it, so they cannot make an earlier cluster appear resolved. A previous cluster becomes RESOLVED only after it is absent for the configured number of consecutive complete runs. When the classifier ruleset changes, the Actor intentionally starts a new baseline so results are compared only with like-for-like runs.

💰 Pricing

This private-validation Actor has no published commercial pricing claim. Review the Apify run panel for current compute and proxy settings before you run it. The cloud-safe prefill uses US residential proxy, so proxy traffic costs apply. Collection depth and network choices can affect usage.

⚖️ Public-data scope and publication status

This Actor uses only publicly reachable Reddit pages. It does not claim Reddit authorization, affiliation, or access to private, deleted, login-only, quarantined, or permission-gated material. Public pages can change, disappear, omit comments, or resist collection. Use the coverage fields and source links to assess each result.

This is a private-validation Actor. Do not commercially publish or market it as a Reddit-approved product until the required permission, policy, legal, and platform review is complete. You are responsible for your use of public material, source attribution, Reddit terms, and applicable law.

❓ FAQ

Does this collect all Reddit feature requests or bug reports?

No. Each run is deliberately bounded by communities, listing pages, posts, comments, continuation pages, time window, and request rate. It is a reviewable public sample, not complete Reddit coverage.

Why does a cluster show partial comment completeness?

The public post may report more comments than the run could account for within the configured caps, public availability, or continuation limits. Compare the reported, accounted, and missing counts before treating a cluster as complete.

Does a higher cluster score mean a confirmed product priority?

No. The score orders the available evidence deterministically. It is not a customer vote, a Reddit score, or a recommendation to build the request.

Does this Actor access private Reddit communities or content?

No. It is limited to publicly reachable Reddit discussions and cannot access private, login-only, deleted, quarantined, or permission-gated content.
