You could use the API per:

You can also use the [discourse\_api](https://github.com/discourse/discourse_api) Ruby gem as a client library. However, not every endpoint is documented. To determine how to do something with the JSON API here are some steps you can follow. Example: recategorize a topic.

But, to be honest, by the time you finish writing the script you would probably finish with all your clicking.
