# Reddit MCP Server Source Code This directory contains the source code for the Reddit Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. The server enables AI assistants to interact with Reddit through a standardized protocol. ## Directory Structure ### Entry Points - **`index.ts`** - Main executable entry point for running the server directly - **`reddit-mcp-server.ts`** - HTTP server implementation that handles OAuth and hosts MCP endpoints - **`smithery-entry.ts`** - Entry point for Smithery platform deployment ### Core Directories #### `/config` Configuration management for the MCP server including capabilities and server metadata. #### `/constants` Static definitions for tools, sampling operations, and their schemas. This is where all tool definitions and prompts are centralized. #### `/handlers` Request handlers that implement the business logic for: - Tool execution (search, read, create content) - Sampling operations (AI-assisted content generation) - Notifications and progress tracking - Resource management #### `/server` HTTP server infrastructure including: - OAuth2 authentication flow - MCP protocol endpoints - Session management - Middleware for security and validation #### `/services` External service integrations: - Reddit API client with OAuth support - SystemPrompt API integration for AI capabilities #### `/types` TypeScript type definitions for: - Reddit API data structures - MCP protocol extensions - Internal application types #### `/utils` Utility functions for: - Data transformation - Validation - Logging - Error handling ## Architecture Overview The server follows a layered architecture: 1. **Entry Layer** - Multiple entry points for different deployment scenarios 2. **Server Layer** - HTTP server with OAuth and MCP protocol support 3. **Handler Layer** - Business logic for processing MCP requests 4. **Service Layer** - External API integrations 5. **Utility Layer** - Cross-cutting concerns ## Key Concepts ### Authentication Flow 1. User initiates OAuth flow through `/oauth/authorize` 2. Reddit redirects back with authorization code 3. Server exchanges code for access token 4. Token is stored per session for subsequent API calls ### MCP Protocol Implementation - Tools allow AI to search, read, and create Reddit content - Sampling enables AI-assisted content generation - Notifications provide real-time feedback - Sessions maintain authentication context ### Multi-Session Support The server supports multiple concurrent users, each with their own: - Authentication credentials - MCP server instance - Session state ## Development To understand how the server works: 1. Start with `index.ts` to see the main entry point 2. Follow the flow through `reddit-mcp-server.ts` for HTTP setup 3. Look at `/server/routes.ts` for request routing 4. Examine `/handlers` for business logic 5. Check `/services` for Reddit API integration Each subdirectory contains its own README with more detailed information about its specific functionality.
