Bellow you can find several links to Steemit posts dealing with bots and mining Steem. Since the mining part will be obsolete in near future only the posts about the bots -and benevolent bots - will really remain useful. Or am I wrong?

Why am I publishing the list bellow? For two reasons:

1. to keep it some place else besides in the bookmarks - not so important
2. to refresh it, clean it up and add new resources - very important

Why am I interested in these resources?

For three reasons and I hope that you might chip in with your knowledge.

Some of you are genuine wizards when it comes to writing scripts for bots and stuff.

These three reasons are actually three short scripts:

1. Daily lists of posts with most comments / eyeballs - a must have for great @stellabelle's initiative -> ENGAGEMENT GUILD PROPOSAL: User Retention Solution + Watch Video Explanation
2. The list of posts filtered by some attribute (tag, user, ...) with their attributes (title, url, thumbnail, ...)
3. The content of the post

All the scripts should work without steem node installed locally.

First script would, ideally, create a post with the list and autopublish it. @stellabelle can explain it better.

The other two scripts should work as some sort of web services so they can be called from anywhere. With some security / authentication in place, of course.

Is this doable?

If yes, and I think that it is, how? I guess that with python and necessary libraries on linux. Are Windows and Mac also the options for the OS?

Thanks a lot for your input. We are willing to learn.
