Reddit Data Collection Plan

Status: Browser MCP Tools Not Available

Issue Identified: Browser MCP automation tools (mcp__browsermcp__*) are not currently accessible through the available function set.

Alternative Approaches

Option 1: Manual Browser MCP Setup

• Verify Browser MCP extension is properly connected
• Check MCP server configuration in Claude Desktop
• Restart Claude Desktop if needed to refresh available tools

Option 2: Direct Content Extraction

• User manually copies content from Reddit URLs
• Paste content for structured analysis and note creation
• Process each URL individually for comprehensive coverage

Option 3: WebFetch Retry

• Test if Reddit domain restrictions have been updated
• Try accessing Reddit URLs through WebFetch tool
• May work for some URLs even if others are blocked

Next Steps

1. Resolve Browser MCP access - highest priority
2. If Browser MCP unavailable: Switch to manual content extraction
3. Process all 7 URLs systematically
4. Create structured note files for each Reddit post
5. Integrate findings into main research document

Fallback Strategy

If Browser MCP remains unavailable:

• User navigates to each URL manually
• Copy/paste content for analysis
• Process into structured format
• Still achievable but requires manual effort
