Can I share a project I built with Astro?
Yes, the description says project showcases are welcome, as long as the post is Astro-related.

This is the community subreddit for Astro, a web framework for building fast, content-driven websites. People here share resources, tools, and project showcases, and they ask for troubleshooting help with their builds. The description says the framework supports React, Svelte, Vue, Tailwind, and more, so posts about using those tools inside Astro fit fine. One thing worth knowing before you post, this subreddit is run by the community and not the official Astro team, and there is a separate official subreddit called r/withastro. That matters for you because you are talking to builders and enthusiasts who self-organize, not to a company account.
Three rules decide whether your post survives here. “Keep It Astro-Related” is the first gate, and it means a general web dev resource that does not connect to Astro gets removed, so a post about your tool needs a clear Astro angle like a plugin, an integration, or a build you made with it. “Be Kind & Courteous” covers how you talk once you are in the thread, rude or inappropriate comments get removed and the author gets warned or banned. “No Spamming” is the rule most marketers trip on, it says sharing helpful resources is welcome but you should not spam or constantly self-promote, and the mods say they take action on accounts that are here just to advertise themselves. The practical read is that one helpful share from an account that also participates is fine, a pattern of self-promotion from an account that only shows up to drop links is not.
The community description does a lot of work here, it explicitly invites resources, tools, project showcases, and troubleshooting questions. For a founder, the strongest shapes are a tool or library built for Astro, a project showcase that shows something interesting you built with the framework, or a resource like a guide or starter that solves a real Astro problem. Answering other people's build questions is also marketing in the best sense, it builds a reputation the rules reward instead of punish. Whatever you share, the Astro connection should be obvious from the post itself, not something you have to explain in the comments.
The obvious failure is posting something general about web development with no Astro connection, that breaks “Keep It Astro-Related”. The second failure is treating the subreddit as a distribution channel, if your account history is all self-promotion you match the exact description the “No Spamming” rule calls out. Piling up your own links week after week counts as constantly self-promoting even when each post is on topic. And once people reply, stay courteous, because rude or inappropriate comments get removed and can get you warned or banned under “Be Kind & Courteous”.

Yes, if it is somehow related to Astro. The rule is not against sharing, it is against spamming or constantly self-promoting.
Unknown from the evidence, since the community has no published rule about links. What the rules do police is repetition and intent, so keep link posts occasional and genuinely useful.
The rules do not mention AI content either way, so there is no published answer. Focus on whether the post is Astro-related and helpful.
The stated consequence is removal of the post, and for spamming or rudeness, warnings or bans for the account.
