Summary
Reddit as a source, without a developer app.
Everything here is public data read without credentials, which removes the usual first hour of Reddit integration work. The comment depth and count arguments are the ones that matter in practice: a popular thread will otherwise return more than any context window wants, and those two bound it at the source rather than after.
What it is
A reader over Reddit's public API. Each board is its own call, the post limit and time filter are arguments rather than pagination you manage, and comment depth is bounded so a large thread does not arrive whole. Nothing here posts, votes or authenticates.
What you get
- Hot posts from the Reddit frontpage, up to a limit you set
- A subreddit's own information
- That subreddit's hot, new and rising boards
- Its top board, filtered by hour, day, week, month, year or all time
- A single post's full content by id
- A post's comments, bounded by depth and count
Requirements
Network access and nothing else — it reads Reddit's public API, so there is no account, no key and no OAuth step.
Setup effort
One command — pip install mcp-server-reddit
