The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
reddit_user_achievements Get User Achievements ~121
Lists a Reddit user's public achievements, the trophies shown on their reddit.com/user/<name>/achievements page. Returns each achievement's name, description, granted timestamp and icons, plus a count. An account with none returns an empty list rather than an error, so a zero count is a real answer. Achievements such as One-Year Club and Verified Email reflect account age and standing. Example: name='spez'.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| name | string | yes | Reddit username WITHOUT the u/ prefix (e.g. 'spez'). Required (path parameter). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
reddit_user_comments List User Comments ~268
Lists a Reddit user's recent comments. Returns comments with body, score, subreddit, parent link, and timestamp plus an `after` cursor. Example: name='spez' sort='top'.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| after | string | – | Opaque pagination cursor: the previous response's `after` value, exactly as it was returned. The format is not stable, and a hand-written Reddit fullname loses the paging depth the cursor carries. Ab… |
| limit | integer | – | Maximum items returned, 1 to 100. The API clamps out-of-range values; the endpoint default applies when omitted. |
| name | string | yes | Reddit username WITHOUT the u/ prefix (e.g. 'spez'). Required (path parameter). |
| sort | string | – | Sort order for a user's comments. 'new' = most recent (default), 'hot', 'top' (in the `t` window), 'controversial'. |
No output schema declared.

reddit_user_gilded List Gilded Items ~491
Lists the posts and comments a Reddit account has received an award (gold) on. PRIVATE data: Reddit serves it only to the account that owns it, so the request carries that account's Reddit session cookies (the session and loid arguments, from POST /api/reddit/login on the REST API, which is not an MCP tool) and returns 403 when `name` is a different account. Mixed listing: each item is a post or a comment, tagged `kind`. Example: name='spez' (the logged-in account).

| limit | integer | – | Maximum items returned, 1 to 100. The API clamps out-of-range values; the endpoint default applies when omitted. |
| loid | string | yes | Reddit account loid cookie, from the same POST /api/reddit/login response. Required. |
| name | string | yes | Reddit username WITHOUT the u/ prefix: the SAME account the supplied cookies belong to, or Reddit returns 403. Required (path parameter). |
| reddit_session | string | yes | The Reddit account's session cookie, as returned by POST /api/reddit/login on the REST API (a REST call, not an MCP tool). Required. |
| sort | string | – | Sort order for a user's comments. 'new' = most recent (default), 'hot', 'top' (in the `t` window), 'controversial'. |
| t | string | – | Time window, only applied when sort is 'top' or 'controversial'. E.g. 'week' = top of the past week. Ignored for other sorts. |

reddit_user_hidden List Hidden Posts ~484
Lists the posts and comments a Reddit account has HIDDEN. PRIVATE data: Reddit serves it only to the account that owns it, so the request carries that account's Reddit session cookies (the session and loid arguments, from POST /api/reddit/login on the REST API, which is not an MCP tool) and returns 403 when `name` is a different account.

reddit_verify_comments Verify Comments Still Exist ~196
Checks whether specific Reddit comments still EXIST and are publicly visible, in one batch of up to 100 ids. A READ despite being a POST (ids travel in the body because a hundred of them exceed a URL's length); it costs the same as any other read and changes nothing on Reddit. It distinguishes 'deleted by the author', 'removed by a moderator' and 'still there', which a normal comment fetch cannot. Accepts bare ids and t1_-prefixed fullnames interchangeably. Returns one row per id, in request order, each with a status. Example: ids=['n5abcde','t1_n5fghij'].
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ids | array | yes | Comment ids to check, 1 to 100 per call. Bare id ('n5abcde') or fullname ('t1_n5abcde'), mixed freely. Reddit's own batch lookup caps at 100 per call. Required. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
reddit_vote Vote ~94
Upvotes, downvotes or clears the vote on a post (t3_) or comment (t1_) as the connected account. Voting needs the CSRF cookie in the stored session. Billed at the vote rate.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| direction | string | yes | up, down, or none to clear an existing vote. |
| thing_id | string | yes | t3_xxx for a post, t1_xxx for a comment. |
No output schema declared.
