Managing the reddit-poster cron schedule is getting complex enough to need a UI.

Pain points today:

No visibility into what is scheduled without reading crontab
No way to see if a post succeeded/failed without tailing a log file
Sub rules are stored in memory files, not surfaced anywhere
Duplicate posts happened because there was no "already ran" indicator
No way to pause/trigger a campaign without SSH + crontab edit

What the dashboard needs:

Weekly schedule view: day/time, script, target subs, status (pending/success/failed/skipped)
Per-post result: URL if succeeded, screenshot link if failed
Sub rules table: flair required, promo allowed, notes — editable
Manual trigger button per campaign
Pause/resume toggle per cron slot
"Already posted this week" guard to prevent duplicates

Implementation options:

Extend claude-bridge with a small FastAPI + Vue UI (port 3010 or similar)
Add a reddit section to the existing cf-ops MkDocs runbook with auto-generated status from the log
Standalone lightweight tool in claude-bridge/reddit-poster/dashboard/

Option 1 is probably right | reuses existing patterns from Peregrine/Kiwi/Snipe.

Data source: /devl/logs/reddit-campaign.log already has timestamps and Posted:/failure lines. A structured JSON log alongside it would make parsing trivial.
