Subreddit Research
Before posting or engaging in a community, use the API to understand the subreddit's rules, top content, and whether your URL has already been shared. Covers 5 endpoints in a logical research sequence.
Domain Monitoring
Track every Reddit mention of your domain in real time. Includes filtering by score, deduplication, and a cron-based automation setup.
AI Agent Integration
Three patterns for wiring ReddGrow into an AI agent: CLI mode for piping JSON context, direct API calls inside tool use, and MCP for Claude Desktop.
Batch Operations
Fetch up to 25 posts in a single request instead of making individual calls. Covers when batching saves credits versus when it costs more.
Credit Optimization
A decision tree and caching strategy for getting the most out of your credit budget. Includes a full cost reference table and recommended TTLs.
MCP Integration
Configure the ReddGrow CLI as an MCP server so Claude Desktop can call Reddit endpoints directly as tools during conversations.
