Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant pull Reddit posts, comments, keyword search results and historical archives through Apify-hosted scrapers.

What it does
Connects an MCP client to Apify's hosted server with a fixed set of Reddit scrapers loaded: a general posts, comments, users and search scraper, a keyword search scraper with date ranges, a comments and replies scraper, and an archive scraper for historical posts. Apify's server also adds helper tools to read a run, read its dataset, read a stored record and stop a run.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs Reddit content for research, monitoring or building a retrieval corpus, and you would rather not run or maintain scraping code yourself. It fits clients that support remote Streamable HTTP MCP servers.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint at mcp.apify.com; no local package or runtime. An Apify account is needed, either through the OAuth sign-in page on first connection or by sending an Apify API token in the Authorization header as a bearer token. Network access to Apify is required.
Before you install
The Authorization header carries an Apify API token, so treat it as a secret. Scrapers run on your own Apify account and charge per result, so usage costs money; the free plan includes a limited monthly credit. The README states the author may earn a commission from sign-ups. Scraping sends requests to Reddit and returns third-party content.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Reddit Data in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. 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.

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

README

Web data tools for AI agents

Five tool sets for Claude, Cursor, VS Code and any other MCP client. Each one is an address of Apify's hosted MCP server that loads a fixed list of scrapers, so the agent gets a handful of tools for one job instead of the whole Apify Store.

Connect

Add one of the addresses below as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP):

json
{"mcpServers": {"reddit-data": {"url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=benthepythondev/reddit-scraper,benthepythondev/reddit-search-scraper,benthepythondev/reddit-comments-scraper,benthepythondev/reddit-archive-scraper"}}}

The first connection opens Apify's sign-in page. A client without OAuth sends an Apify API token instead, as the header Authorization: Bearer <token>.

What it costs

The tools run on your own Apify account. Each scraper charges per result, and its page in the Apify Store lists the price per plan. Apify's free plan includes $5 of usage a month, and no scraper here needs a login or cookies for the site it reads.
