Can I use a script to invite curators?

I'm going to use a script in python (of course only if this is allowed) to check comments and invite people who have the word “invite” in their comment. Is this allowed? Would it be breaking the ToS? I know that it says that we can't do any social actions (love, fave, follow) on Scratch with a script, but what about inviting curators? Does that count as a social action?

Here are some of my followers!

I joined: 5 years, 9 months, 24 days ago (31/03/2018)
I have: 479 followers
In total, I have attained: 1,403 loves, 1,145 favourites, and 33,731 views.
Fun Fact: If my account continued to gain followers at a similar rate to right now, in 14,210 years I would reach the number of followers griffpatch has today! Try to imagine how many followers he would have then!
Thank you everyone!

In my book, it doesn't count as a social action. But it might mess with Scratch's servers. Yet, It's only inviting people to studios. And that one browser extension lets you reply to comments on the site from the extension. Therefore, I would say it's allowed. But let's wait for another user's opinion.

Okay! Let's wait and see…
Edit: I can recall a studio by @isthistaken123 doing this exact thing, but then isthistaken got banned for an unknown reason (although I don't know if it's related to the studio)
btw i know what extension you are talking about

I think that any use of studio invites in a script may not be allowed as it could be used to spam users. Possibly only if the user consents to it although this is starting to sound too bot like, they are definitely not allowed.

Nothing here.

Well okay, I'll just see one more person if it is allowed then.

no. interacting with scratch through your own scripts is really not allowed, especially if its being used to do something in mass (like inviting everyone who asks in a comment)
