Pure API reference for reddapi.dev - authentication, all endpoints (vector search, semantic search, trends, subreddit lookup), request parameters, response schemas, and error codes, with no research-workflow framing. Use when the user wants raw endpoint documentation, is debugging a reddapi.dev integration, needs exact request/response field names, or asks for 'reddapi API reference', 'reddapi.dev endpoints', or 'reddapi error codes'. For guided research workflows and query playbooks, see…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# reddit-search-api Skill

Pure reference for reddapi.dev's search/trends/subreddits endpoints - auth,
parameters, response shapes, error codes. No workflow guidance or query
playbooks here; see `reddit-research` for that.

## Auth & Credentials

Requests authenticate with `REDDAPI_API_KEY` from the environment of the
shell that runs them. Its value is never needed in this conversation.

The operator sets both variables once, in their own shell, before the agent
runs anything. The agent never reads, writes, or transports the key's value:

```bash
export REDDAPI_API_KEY=...                                  # from https://reddapi.dev/account
export REDDAPI_AUTH="Authorization: Bearer $REDDAPI_API_KEY"
```

Every request below sends `-H "$REDDAPI_AUTH"`. No command in this skill names
the key's value, and no example needs it substituted in.

- Reference the key **only** as `$REDDAPI_API_KEY`. Never substitute the
  literal value into a command, a file, a code block, or a reply.
- Never ask the user to paste, type, or send the key in chat. If they send it
  anyway, don't repeat it back, don't store it in a file, and suggest they
  rotate it at https://reddapi.dev/account.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lignertys/reddit-research-skills/reddit-search-api@sha256:c90f3ddaf85a6cc4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260915.a1f9f97, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
