Read Reddit from any MCP client. You log in once in a real browser, and the server handles everything after that with ordinary HTTP requests. There is no API key to get and no Reddit app to register.

What it does
Eleven tools read Reddit: profiles, posts, comment trees, subreddit and home feeds, saved posts, and search. Truncated comment branches expand on demand.
Four tools write, and they stay unregistered unless REDDIT_MCP_ENABLE_WRITES is set to 1. They submit posts, reply, edit, and delete.
How it authenticates
Camoufox opens once so you can sign in. The server records your cookies, the exact headers the browser sent, and the user agent, then replays them over a Firefox TLS fingerprint for every request after that. The token refreshes itself for about a day at a time, falling back to a background browser launch only when Reddit stops rotating it.
