How do I install the devvit mcp server?

Use a recorded configuration for your client, replace example credential values and paths, and verify the documented runtime. Restart or reconnect the client, then inspect the available tools.

What credentials does it need?

It reads `DEVVIT_DISABLE_METRICS` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.

What the server does

A companion MCP server for writing applications on Reddit's developer platform.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

Dist — pwd from the root of your devvit-mcp + /dist/index.js
Debugging — You need to add the capability to your new MCPServer. [Use this permalink](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk/blob/1909bbcc671b004
