So far as I can tell, I think bot accounts are ideally supposed to flag their accounts as bot accounts, e.g. b0t here does so, which I'd think should allow for a similar toggle as exists for NSFW posts in different UIs/apps when not signed in, but I haven't seen it yet so I'm thinking it may work differently.

I can probably modify the script to block these bots, because they all have the same username. I would just look for the
titleand remove the posts that equal @bOt.This might be a better task for the dev-team, because my method is definitely a work-around. There could already be an open issue for it on the github. I think we agree that blocking bots should be built into the API.
