Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server do?
It exposes 9 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: reddit_popular_posts, reddit_post_comments, reddit_post_detail, reddit_posts_search, reddit_subreddit_info, reddit_subreddit_posts and 3 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 182 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 319 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server need an API key?
No. Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 9 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How many people use Reddit Subreddit Posts, Search & Comments API MCP Server?
The npm package @kaitoinfra/redditdataapi-mcp-server was installed 332 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
