# Superpowers.social — MCP server for X/Twitter & Reddit

## 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).

## Install

### Claude Desktop
Settings → Connectors → **Add custom connector**:
- **Name:** `social-superpowers`
- **URL:** `https://superpowers.social/mcp`

### ChatGPT (desktop or web)
Settings → Apps & Connectors → enable **Developer mode** (one-time) → **Create**:
- **Name:** `social-superpowers`
- **URL:** `https://superpowers.social/mcp`

All tools are read-only, so the connector works on Plus/Pro developer mode.

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http social-superpowers https://superpowers.social/mcp

## Examples

```

```
