MCP Reddit

An MCP server that lets you interact with Reddit discussions without the need for an API key from an external service.

Usage

Start the server using stdio (default):

# Using stdio transport (default)
uv run reddit-mcp

The server exposes a tool named "reddit_extract" that accepts one required argument:

• url: The URL of the reddit discussion to fetch e.g: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPTCoding/comments/1hy3683/this_sub_in_a_nutshell/
