What it does

Reddit Ads through an assistant

Reddit reaches people inside the communities they already trust, and its Ads API v3 covers the same ground as the big platforms -- businesses, ad accounts, funding, campaigns, ad groups, ads, creative assets, audiences, catalogues and reporting. An assistant can check what a connection can actually do before it tries, which matters here because Reddit grants read and write permissions separately. Anything that creates or spends is opt-in, and a per-connection daily budget ceiling applies in micros, the unit Reddit bills in.

  • Confirm which Reddit account a connection authenticates as, and what it was granted
  • Read and write permissions reported separately, before a write is attempted
  • Per-connection daily budget ceiling, expressed in Reddit's micros
  • Automatic token refresh -- Reddit access tokens last one hour
  • Campaign, ad group, ad, creative, audience and reporting coverage (in progress)
Ask your assistant

What people actually ask

Real questions, answered from live Reddit Ads data.

Is my Reddit connection working, and can it create campaigns or only read?

reddit_ads_whoami

Why did a Reddit tool just fail -- bad token or missing permission?

reddit_ads_whoami

Which Reddit account am I advertising as, and is the connection still live?

  • reddit_ads_whoami
    Read-only

    Confirm which Reddit account this connection authenticates as, and which permissions it was granted. Call this first when a Reddit tool fails: it distinguishes a dead or unrefreshed token from a permission that was never granted, which are the two failures that look identical from a tool error.

Access & safety

You decide what it can touch

The same model applies to every connector, and it defaults closed.

Authorize once

Connect Reddit Ads through its own consent screen. Credentials are encrypted with AES-256-GCM and never returned by any API response or tool call.

Writes off by default

A new connection switches on a read-oriented default set only. Every write tool must be enabled deliberately before any client can call it.

Roles enforced server-side

READ, WRITE and ADMIN gate tool invocation on the server, not just in the UI. A READ member's token is refused any write tool.

Setup

Connect Reddit Ads in minutes

No infrastructure to run. Copy one URL and one token into your client.

  1. 1Create a free workspace and connect Reddit Ads.
  2. 2Choose which tools to expose — writes stay off until you enable them.
  3. 3Copy your MCP endpoint URL and bearer token.
  4. 4Paste them into Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client.
claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "serve-mcp": {
      "url": "https://servemcp.com/api/mcp/your-workspace",
      "transport": "http",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer smcp_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

On Claude you paste one URL and sign in — no token to copy. See the setup guide for each client.
