Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted MCP server giving assistants live Reddit and X (Twitter) search, threads, user and subreddit lookups, leads and brand mentions.

What you can do
  • Search Reddit posts and comments, read full comment threads, and look up subreddits, their rules and posts
  • Search X users and tweets, read replies, retweeters, timelines, followers and list members
  • Look up user profiles, history and account status on both platforms
  • Find leads and track brand mentions, including single calls that span Reddit and X at once
  • Perform actions from your own connected X accounts
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs current social data from Reddit or X for lead finding, brand monitoring, community research or people lookups, rather than building on the data yourself.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at api.chatterapi.com; no local package. A ChatterAPI key sent as an Authorization bearer header, obtained by signing up with Google. Credits are consumed per call, with 100 free credits at signup and paid plans from $19 a month.
Before you install
The key is a billable credential: every call charges credits, so expensive runs can spend money, and the bundled skill is meant to make the agent ask first. Actions from your own connected X accounts can post or change data. Queries and results pass through a third-party service that is not affiliated with Reddit or X.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open ChatterAPI in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect Authorization token credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.chatterapi%2Fmcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chatterapi": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.chatterapi.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

README

ChatterAPI skill and MCP setup

Live Reddit and X (Twitter) data for Claude, Cursor, Codex and any other MCP client, plus a Claude skill that teaches the agent to use it without burning through credits.

ChatterAPI gives you one API key for both platforms. Search posts, comments and tweets, read full threads, look up users and subreddits, find leads and track brand mentions. You can call it over REST (https://api.chatterapi.com/v1) or connect the hosted MCP server (https://api.chatterapi.com/mcp) and let your agent pick the tools.

This repo has three things:

  • SKILL.md: a Claude skill for four jobs (find leads, listen for mentions, research communities, look up people) with budget rules, so the agent asks before an expensive run.
  • examples/mcp/: copy-paste MCP configs for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and Codex.
  • examples/rest/: the same search in curl, Python and JavaScript.

Install

1. Get a key. Sign up at chatterapi.com/signup with Google. You get 100 free credits without a card. Keep the key in an environment variable:

bash
export CHATTERAPI_KEY="ca_live_..."

2. Connect the MCP server. For Claude Code:

bash
claude mcp add --transport http chatterapi https://api.chatterapi.com/mcp \  --header "Authorization: Bearer $CHATTERAPI_KEY"

Other clients are in examples/mcp/. The MCP server page has the full setup for each client and how to check it worked.

3. Add the skill.

bash
npx skills add Amplifyx-Labs/chatterapi-skill

Or copy SKILL.md into ~/.claude/skills/chatterapi/.

Then ask your agent something like "find people on Reddit and X asking for a CRM recommendation this week" or "what does r/SaaS allow for self-promotion?"

Use it over REST

bash
curl -s "https://api.chatterapi.com/v1/reddit/search?q=crm&limit=10" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CHATTERAPI_KEY"

Every response has this shape, with a cursor for the next page (pass it back as cursor) and the credits the call cost:

json
{  "data": [{ "id": "1wdihhj", "title": "What CRM should a small business use?", "...": "..." }],  "page": { "nextCursor": "AX-vad045wfn…", "hasMore": true },  "credits": { "charged": 2, "remaining": 98 },  "requestId": "req_..."}

Python and JavaScript versions are in examples/rest/.

What's covered

  • Reddit: post and comment search, full comment threads, subreddit info, rules and posts, user profiles, history and account status, subreddit and user search, lead finding. Reddit docs
  • X (Twitter): user profiles and search, followers, following, verified followers, timelines, mentions, tweet search, replies, retweeters, list members, lead finding, and actions from your own connected accounts. X docs
  • Both at once: one search, leads and mentions call across Reddit and X. Cross-platform docs

Plans start at $19 a month for 25,000 credits. See pricing. For one-off lookups there are also free web tools that don't need a key.

ChatterAPI is an independent product. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Reddit or X.

Also from the team behind ChatterAPI

If you use Reddit and X data for growth rather than building on it, these may save you time:

  • XAutoDM: cold DM outreach on X, for when you've found the right people and want to reach them.
  • Grow With Reddit: free subreddit-aware tools for writing posts that fit a community's rules.
  • Subreddit Marketing: a done-for-you Reddit marketing agency, if you'd rather hand the work off.
  • BacklinkBot: backlinks and AI-search visibility for SaaS founders.

This server asks for a credential such as an API key, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without one and has not indexed them.
