A Model Context Protocol server providing access to Reddit public API for LLMs. This server enables LLMs to interact with Reddit's content, including browsing frontpage posts, accessing subreddit information, and reading post comments.
Once connected, the assistant can call these 8 tools directly:
get_frontpage_posts — Get hot posts from Reddit frontpageget_subreddit_info — Get information about a subredditget_subreddit_hot_posts — Get hot posts from a specific subredditget_subreddit_new_posts — Get new posts from a specific subredditget_subreddit_top_posts — Get top posts from a specific subredditget_subreddit_rising_posts — Get rising posts from a specific subredditget_post_content — Get detailed content of a specific postget_post_comments — Get comments from a postThe server is distributed via npm as @smithery/cli, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.
Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. Reddit sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — get_frontpage_posts, get_subreddit_info, get_subreddit_hot_posts among others — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other developer tools servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.
