Available Skills

Market research, user research, and product validation on Reddit via reddapi.dev - semantic search across 50K+ subreddits, 20M+ posts, and 40M+ comments, trends over a date range, and subreddit discovery, plus query playbooks for competitor research, niche validation, and trend tracking.

for existing installs. Fully functional standalone; new installs should
prefer reddit-research for the expanded playbooks.

OAuth or app registration needed. It is not unlimited: access is gated by

similarity_score, working date filters, and exact result counts up tolimit: 100 - Semantic Search: natural-language search at comparable speed, adds LLM keyword extraction and an optional AI summary; no date filter
