# Reply to Comments Automatically replies to comments on your own posts — published by Regular Post or Top Repost (quote) modules. Configurable per-argument reply templates with optional like and follow actions. ## How it works Each cycle, the module scans your recent posts (published by Regular Post and Top Repost quote modules). For each post, it: 1. Fetches all comments on the post. 2. Filters to **top-level comments only** (not nested threads). 3. Skips comments you've already replied to. 4. Skips your own comments. 5. For each remaining comment, picks a random reply from the configured list and publishes it. The **Posts to check** setting controls how many recent posts are scanned each cycle (default: 10). ## Arguments & replies Each post has an **argument** — the name of the Regular Post entry or Top Repost group that produced it. You configure a list of reply templates for each argument. The `{name}` placeholder in replies is replaced with the commenter's display name. If the name contains unusual characters, the placeholder is removed cleanly. Individual arguments can be skipped without deleting them. ## Configuration reference | Setting | Default | Description | | **Arguments** | — | Post name → reply templates mapping | | **Delay between replies (sec)** | 30 | Delay between replies | | **Posts to check** | 10 | How many recent posts to scan per cycle | | **Delay between cycles (min)** | 60 | Wait between full cycles | ## Like & follow Each argument can independently enable: - **Like author post** — likes the comment after replying. - **Follow author** — follows the commenter after replying. - **Follow author probability** — probability (1-100%) to follow when enabled. Before following, the module checks the current follow status and skips if already following. ## Safety behavior - Never replies to the same comment twice. - Skips your own comments and comments you've already replied to. - Only considers top-level comments, not nested threads. - Arguments must match an active Regular Post name or Top Repost quote group. - Rate limit (429) triggers a 15-minute pause.
