Summary
A hosted gateway that connects Claude to X/Twitter and Reddit without requiring API keys or dealing with rate limits. Exposes twelve read-only tools: search tweets, pull threads, fetch user timelines, search Reddit posts, grab full comment trees, and pull subreddit metadata. Useful when you need live social data for sentiment analysis, trend research, or grounding responses in current discussions without maintaining scraping infrastructure or paying for enterprise API access. Runs over streamable HTTP, free during beta, with token-optimized responses that strip unnecessary JSON bloat. Good fit for research agents, monitoring workflows, or anything that needs to check what people are actually saying right now.

Superpowers.social — MCP server for X/Twitter & Reddit
A hosted MCP server that gives Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any agent runtime live tool-use access to X/Twitter and Reddit. No API keys. No scraping setup. No banned accounts.
Endpoint: https://superpowers.social/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
Why
The official APIs are paywalled into oblivion (X starts at $100/mo, Reddit is heavily rate limiting). Direct scraping flags accounts in days. Most agents end up stuck on stale article snippets while the actual conversation happens on X and Reddit.
This server runs the gateway so you don't have to. One URL, ten tools, schema-validated responses, token-optimized payloads.
Tools
X/Twitter (5)
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
twitter-search | Search tweets by query with engagement metrics |
twitter-read | Read a single tweet by URL or ID |
twitter-thread | Read a full conversation thread |
twitter-user-tweets | Recent tweets from a user |
twitter-news | Trending news on X |
Reddit (5)
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
reddit-search | Search posts across Reddit or one subreddit |
reddit-get-post | Get a post + comments |
reddit-get-posts | Get hot/new/top posts from a subreddit |
reddit-get-user-posts | Posts submitted by a user |
reddit-get-user-comments | Comments by a user |
All tools are read-only, idempotent, and return token-optimized responses (up to 90% smaller than raw API JSON).
