Overview

What is mcp-reddit?

How to use mcp-reddit?

Install Docker and obtain Reddit API credentials (client_id, client_secret, user_agent). Configure the server in Claude Desktop by adding a Docker-based mcpServers entry in claude_desktop_config.json. Then use any of the three provided tools (search_subreddit, get_post_details, get_subreddit_hot) in Claude.

Frequently asked questions

1

What dependencies does mcp-reddit require?

Docker is mandatory to run the server. For local development, Python 3.12+ and the packages in `requirements.txt` are needed. Reddit API credentials are always required.

2

What are the rate limits or usage restrictions?

Reddit API has its own rate limits. The server defaults to returning at most 5 search results and 10 comments per post. These limits are configurable via the `limit` and `comment_limit` parameters.

3

Where does my data live?

All data is fetched from Reddit’s public API in real time. No data is stored locally or on the server; only the API credentials are kept as environment variables.

4

How do I authenticate with the Reddit API?

You must provide `REDDIT_CLIENT_ID`, `REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET`, and `REDDIT_USER_AGENT` as environment variables when running the Docker container. These are obtained from the Reddit app management page.

5

What transport protocol does the server use?

The server communicates over standard input/output (stdio) inside the Docker container, as is typical for MCP servers. It is designed to be used with Claude Desktop’s MCP client.
