Add FetchLayer's Reddit MCP server to OpenClaw so your AI agent can search Reddit, scrape posts, and pull subreddit data directly.

OpenClaw is an open-source AI coding agent that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). You can connect FetchLayer’s Reddit MCP server to give OpenClaw access to Reddit data across all 15 endpoints.

Prerequisites

Setup

Add the FetchLayer MCP server to your OpenClaw configuration. OpenClaw uses the standard MCP config format:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fetchlayer": {
      "url": "https://mcp.fetchlayer.dev",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk-your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace sk-your-api-key with your actual key from the FetchLayer dashboard.

Depending on your OpenClaw version, add this to:

  • Your global OpenClaw settings file
  • A project-level .mcp.json or MCP config file

Restart OpenClaw after saving.

Try it out

Once configured, ask your OpenClaw agent:

Search Reddit for posts about “self-hosted alternatives to Notion” and show me the top results.

The agent will call FetchLayer’s Reddit search tool and return structured data.

More examples:

  • “What’s trending on r/selfhosted this week?”
  • “Get comments from this Reddit post: [URL]”
  • “Find subreddits about home automation”

Available tools

All 13 FetchLayer Reddit endpoints: search, posts, comments, subreddits, user profiles, trending content, community discovery, and more. See the full endpoint list.
