Reddit MCP

A plug-and-play MCP server to browse, search, and read Reddit.

Demo

Here's a short video showing how to use this in Claude Desktop:

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a2e9f2dd-a9ac-453f-acd9-1791380ebdad

Features

  • Detailed parameter validation with pydantic
  • Uses the reliable PRAW library under the hood
  • Built-in rate limiting protection thanks to PRAW

Caveats

  • Only supports read features for now. If you want to use write features, upvote the issue or send a PR! 🙌
  • Tools use tokens. To use this with Claude, you may need to be a Pro user to use many tool calls. Free tier users should be fine with lighter tool usage. Your token usage is your responsibility.

Installation

Prerequisite: Reddit API credentials

Create a developer app in your Reddit account if you don't already have one. This will give you a client_id and client_secret to use in the following steps. If you already have these, you can skip this step.

Claude Desktop

To install into Claude Desktop:

  • Follow the instructions here until the section "Open up the configuration file in any text editor."
  • Add the following to the file depending on your preferred installation method:
"mcpServers": { "reddit": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["reddit-mcp"], "env": { "REDDIT_CLIENT_ID": "<client_id>", "REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET": "<client_secret>" } } }

Using PIP

First install the package:

pip install reddit-mcp

Then add the following to the configuration file:

"mcpServers": { "reddit": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "reddit_mcp"], "env": { "REDDIT_CLIENT_ID": "<client_id>", "REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET": "<client_secret>" } } }

Others

You can use this server with any MCP client, including agent frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, etc). For an example AutoGen integration, check out the example.
