Documentation

README

Excerpt

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:

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

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
