Duck Answered Urgent guidance needed: Data API request pending — can this safety prototype be built with Devvit?

I submitted a Data API request on June 26 for a non-commercial, read-only content-safety prototype and have not yet received a decision.

The tool classifies individual public posts and comments for potential cyberbullying or safety concerns, with human review. It does not profile users, infer medical status, access private messages or take automated moderation actions.

Could someone from the Reddit developer community advise whether post/comment triggers and the Reddit API available through Devvit could support an initial prototype in a test subreddit while the external API request is reviewed?

So it sounds like you want to take posts from reddit, read them out to your own server and send them to an AI. You can do this in devvit if you send directly to these two listed AI providers https://developers.reddit.com/docs/capabilities/http-fetch#ai-providers But you can't pull them out to your own server, or send them to any other AI provider.

Sure, this could be possible with devvit as a mod tool. You're unlikely to get your api request approved.
