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)
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.
| 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 |
| 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 |

All tools are read-only, idempotent, and return token-optimized responses (up to 90% smaller than raw API JSON).
