Overview

AI-generated overview

Searches Reddit by keyword, subreddit or thread URL and returns flat rows of posts and comments, via an Apify actor.

What you can do
  • Search Reddit posts by keyword across all of Reddit or within listed subreddits, with sort and time filters
  • Read the newest, hot, top or rising posts of chosen subreddits
  • Read specific thread URLs together with their top comments, including reply depth
  • Return one flat row per post or comment, plus a free summary row of counts per query
  • Skip posts and comments already returned by an earlier run for the same query
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to gather Reddit discussion for research, market or sentiment questions, or to pull a thread and its comments into a table, without a Reddit account.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio via npx, so Node.js 18 or newer is needed. Requires an Apify account and an Apify API token supplied as the APIFY_TOKEN environment variable; the tool is listed without a token but calls need one. Network access to Apify is required.
Before you install
All work runs on Apify and is billed per event to your Apify account (per post row, per comment row and per run start), so large result sets cost money; an optional max_charge_usd cap is available. The APIFY_TOKEN is a secret and should be kept out of shared configs. The server reads public Reddit content and sends queries to a third-party actor.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Mcp Reddit Search Thread Scraper in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

README

Reddit Search and Thread Scraper MCP Server

[npm version] [license]

An MCP server for the Mamba Labs Reddit Search and Thread Scraper actor on Apify. Search Reddit by keyword, read subreddits, or read threads with their comments, and get one flat row per post and comment.

What's Inside

What it does

Each search term runs across all of Reddit or inside each subreddit you list, sorted by new, relevance, top, most comments, or hot. By default a result is kept only when the search term is in the post's title or text, so loosely related results are dropped and not charged. Subreddits with no search term return their newest, hot, top, or rising posts. Thread URLs return the post and its top comments. Each query also returns one free summary row with its counts. Reddit is read through its public feeds; no Reddit account, login, or API key is used.

All of the work runs on Apify. This package is a thin client that starts the actor run, waits for it, and hands back the dataset rows.

Quick start

You need Node.js 18 or newer and an Apify account with an API token.

Add this to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor, or any MCP client:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "mamba-reddit-search-thread-scraper": {      "command": "npx",      "args": [        "-y",        "@mambalabsdev/mcp-reddit-search-thread-scraper"      ],      "env": {        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token"      }    }  }}

Restart the client. The search_reddit tool appears.

Prerequisites

Example prompts

  • "Find Reddit posts from the last week in r/sales and r/startups that mention cold email."
