Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

• browse_subredditBrowse Subredditread-only

  Browse a subreddit — or the authenticated home feed when no subreddit is given — by sort order: hot, new, top, rising, or controversial. Read-only; works without credentials via RSS fallback (titles and links only, no scores or comment counts). `time_filter` applies only to the top and controversial sorts. Returns a page of posts plus an `after` cursor. Use get_top_posts as a shortcut for the top sort, or search_reddit to find posts by keyword rather than by feed order.

• create_postCreate Post

  Create a new text or link post in a subreddit. Mutating and NOT idempotent — each call publishes a separate post. Requires REDDIT_USERNAME and REDDIT_PASSWORD; fails without them. Returns the new post's id and URL. Check get_subreddit_rules and get_post_flairs first, since many subreddits require a flair or reject certain content. WARNING: rapid posting or duplicate content may trigger Reddit's spam detection and account bans — enable REDDIT_SAFE_MODE=standard for rate limiting and duplicate detection.

• delete_commentDelete Commentcan change or delete data

  Permanently delete one of your own comments. Mutating and destructive but idempotent — deleting an already-deleted comment is a no-op. Requires REDDIT_USERNAME and REDDIT_PASSWORD, and only works on comments authored by the authenticated account. Only affects the comment you name; use delete_post for posts. WARNING: this cannot be undone — the content is removed, though the comment id remains.

• delete_postDelete Postcan change or delete data

  Permanently delete one of your own posts. Mutating and destructive but idempotent — deleting an already-deleted post is a no-op. Requires REDDIT_USERNAME and REDDIT_PASSWORD, and only works on posts authored by the authenticated account. Only affects the post you name; use delete_comment for comments. WARNING: this cannot be undone — the content is removed, though the post id remains.

• edit_commentEdit Commentcan change or delete data

  Replace the text of one of your own comments. Mutating and idempotent (same text → same result); it overwrites the previous content. Requires REDDIT_USERNAME and REDDIT_PASSWORD, and works only on comments you authored. Adds an "edited" marker. Use reply_to_post to add a new comment, or edit_post for posts. WARNING: rapid edits may trigger spam detection; enable REDDIT_SAFE_MODE for protection.

• edit_postEdit Postcan change or delete data

  Replace the body text of one of your own self-text posts. Mutating and idempotent (same text → same result); it overwrites the previous body. Requires REDDIT_USERNAME and REDDIT_PASSWORD, and works only on self posts you authored — titles and link posts cannot be edited. Adds an "edited" marker. Use create_post to make a new post, or edit_comment for comments. WARNING: rapid edits may trigger spam detection; enable REDDIT_SAFE_MODE for protection.

• get_meGet My Accountread-only

  Get the authenticated user's own profile (karma, account age, status flags). Read-only, but requires user credentials (REDDIT_USERNAME/REDDIT_PASSWORD) and fails without user credentials. Use this instead of get_user_info when you need the current account rather than an arbitrary user. Do NOT use it to look up other users — it always returns the logged-in account.

• get_more_commentsGet More Commentsread-only

  Expand truncated 'load more comments' stubs in a thread. Read-only; requires OAuth credentials. Pass the post's link id and the comment ids from a 'more' node (surfaced by get_post_comments) to fetch those hidden comments; returns the expanded comments (author, body excerpt, score, link). Call get_post_comments first to obtain the thread and its 'more' node ids — do NOT invent ids.

• get_my_overviewGet My Overviewread-only

  Get the authenticated user's own recent activity — posts and comments interleaved, newest first. Read-only but requires user credentials (REDDIT_USERNAME/REDDIT_PASSWORD). Returns up to `limit` items plus an `after` cursor for the next page. Use get_my_saved for saved items, or get_user_posts / get_user_comments for another user. Do NOT use this to fetch a specific post's thread — use get_post_comments.

• get_my_savedGet My Savedread-only

  Get the authenticated user's saved posts and comments (private to the account). Read-only but requires user credentials (REDDIT_USERNAME/REDDIT_PASSWORD). Returns up to `limit` items plus an `after` pagination cursor. Use get_my_overview for your authored activity. Do NOT use this for another user — saved items are private and have no cross-user equivalent.

• get_post_commentsGet Post Commentsread-only

  Get the comment thread for a post (by post id + subreddit), sorted best/top/new/controversial/old/qa. Read-only; requires OAuth credentials. Returns the post header plus threaded comments (author, OP/edited badges, score, body, nesting depth) up to `limit`. Long threads are truncated with 'load more' stubs — expand those with get_more_comments. Use get_reddit_post for just the post body, not the thread.

• get_post_flairsGet Post Flairsread-only

  List a subreddit's selectable link flairs (flair text + flair_id) for use with create_post. Read-only, but requires user credentials; many subreddits expose flairs only to members, so this can 403 or return empty without credentials. Pass a returned flair_id (and flair_text for text-editable flairs) to create_post. For the subreddit's posting rules use get_subreddit_rules instead.

• get_reddit_postGet Reddit Postread-only

  Get a single post by subreddit + post id: title, author, self-text or link content, score, upvote ratio, comment count, flair/flags, and an engagement analysis. Read-only; requires OAuth credentials. Returns the post only — use get_post_comments for its comment thread. Do NOT use this to list a subreddit's posts (use browse_subreddit / get_top_posts) or to find posts by keyword (use search_reddit).

• get_subreddit_infoGet Subreddit Inforead-only

  Get a subreddit's profile: title, description, subscriber and active-user counts, creation date, flags, wiki/link URLs, plus a community analysis and posting tips. Read-only; requires OAuth credentials. Returns metadata about the community itself — use browse_subreddit / get_top_posts for its posts, or get_subreddit_rules for its posting rules. Do NOT use this to find subreddits by topic — use search_reddit with type='sr'.

• get_subreddit_rulesGet Subreddit Rulesread-only

  Get a subreddit's posting rules (each rule's name, what it applies to, and its description). Read-only; requires OAuth credentials. Returns the rules list, or a note when the subreddit lists none. Call this before create_post to check requirements and avoid auto-removal. For available post flairs use get_post_flairs instead.
