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, twelve 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 (7)

| Tool | What it does | |---|---| | reddit-search | Search posts across Reddit | | reddit-get-post | Get a post + comments | | reddit-get-posts | Get posts from a subreddit | | reddit-get-subreddit-info | Subreddit metadata | | reddit-get-user-info | Reddit user profile | | 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).
