Overview

AI-generated overview

Apify-hosted MCP server that lets an assistant search Reddit, scrape posts and comment threads, and pull subreddits as structured JSON for lead finding andbrand

What you can do
Search Reddit by keyword across all of Reddit or one subreddit, with sort, time window and date range, returning matching posts and comments by default for brand monitoring and lead discovery. Scrape specific Reddit URLs: post permalinks with full threads, user profiles, subreddit listings and search pages. Bulk-pull posts from one or more subreddits, optionally date-bounded, with comment threads on by default. Results come back as structured JSON items typed as post, comment, community or user profile, with fields such as title, body, author, score and comment count.
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to monitor what Reddit says about a brand or keyword, gather leads from Reddit discussions, or collect posts and comment threads from chosen subreddits without a Reddit API key or login.
Requirements
A remote endpoint at mcp.apify.com (or the local npm package reddit-scraper-mcp, which needs Node 20+). An Apify account and API token, sent as the Authorization header in the form Bearer plus the token, or as the APIFY_TOKEN environment variable for the local server. Network access to Apify.
Before you install
Runs are billed per result on Apify (the README states $2 per 1,000 results, less with plan discounts; the registry description cites $1.50/1k), so large scrapes cost money. The Apify API token is a secret and should be kept out of shared configs. Scraped Reddit content is sent to and processed by Apify, a third party.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Reddit Lead Finder & Brand Monitor (Apify) – leads, mentions, alerts in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required 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/io.github.harshmaur%2Freddit-scraper-pro/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. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

Reddit Scraper MCP server

MCP server for the Reddit Scraper Apify Actor. Gives Claude, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, ChatGPT and any other MCP client three tools for Reddit as structured JSON: keyword search, URL scraping with full comment threads, and bulk subreddit pulls. No Reddit API key, no login. Billed per result on Apify ($2 per 1,000 results, less with Apify plan discounts; the free plan covers small runs).

Reddit API and RSS shutdown. Reddit stops accepting new API access requests on 2026-10-31. Reddit RSS feeds stop on 2026-11-13. This server does not use a Reddit API key, a Reddit app or RSS, so neither date changes your setup.

Two ways to connect. Both need an Apify token. No Apify account yet? Sign up free, then copy the token from https://console.apify.com/account/integrations.

Option A — remote (nothing to install)

Apify hosts the Actor as an MCP tool:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "reddit-scraper": {      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/reddit-scraper",      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <APIFY_TOKEN>" }    }  }}

Stdio-only clients can bridge with npx mcp-remote https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/reddit-scraper. This is the endpoint registered in the official MCP Registry as io.github.harshmaur/reddit-scraper.

Option B — local stdio server (this repo)

Purpose-built tools with typed arguments, so the model fills in queries, subreddit, postedAfter instead of a raw Actor input object.

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "reddit-scraper": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "reddit-scraper-mcp"],      "env": { "APIFY_TOKEN": "<APIFY_TOKEN>" }    }  }}

Published on npm as reddit-scraper-mcp. Or clone and run node index.js. Node 20+.

ToolUse it for
search_redditKeyword search across Reddit or one subreddit; sort, time window, date range; matching comments and post threads on by default. Brand monitoring, lead discovery, "what is Reddit saying about X".
scrape_reddit_urlsPost permalinks (with the full thread), /user/<name>/ profiles, subreddit listing URLs, search-page URLs.
scrape_subredditBulk posts from one or more subreddits, optionally date-bounded; comment threads on by default.

APIFY_TOKENrequiredApify API token
REDDIT_SCRAPER_ACTORharshmaur/reddit-scraperSet to harshmaur/reddit-scraper-pro to run the Pro listing instead
REDDIT_SCRAPER_TIMEOUT300Seconds to wait for a run

Every item carries dataType (post, comment, community, user_profile); posts include title, body, postUrl, communityName, authorName, score, commentsCount, createdAt, flair. Field reference: https://apify.com/harshmaur/reddit-scraper#output-example

Automation templates

The Actor can also deliver results itself (Slack, Notion, Airtable, Sheets) through its mcpConnector input, with an Apify Schedule as the trigger, if you prefer no middleware.
