# Reddit Automation via Rube MCP
Automate Reddit operations through Composio's Reddit toolkit via Rube MCP.
## Prerequisites
- Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
- Active Reddit connection via `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `reddit`
- Always call `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` first to get current tool schemas
## Setup
**Get Rube MCP**: Add `https://rube.app/mcp` as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.
1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` responds
2. Call `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `reddit`
3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Reddit OAuth
4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
## Core Workflows
### 1. Search Reddit
**When to use**: User wants to find posts across subreddits
**Tool sequence**:
1. `REDDIT_SEARCH_ACROSS_SUBREDDITS` - Search for posts matching a query [Required]
**Key parameters**:
- `query`: Search terms
- `subreddit`: Limit search to a specific subreddit (optional)
- `sort`: Sort results by 'relevance', 'hot', 'top', 'new', 'comments'
- `time_filter`: Time range ('hour', 'day', 'week', 'month', 'year', 'all')
- `limit`: Number of results to return
**Pitfalls**:
- Search results may not include very recent posts due to indexing delay
- The `time_filter` parameter only works with certain sort options
- Results are paginated; use after/before tokens for additional pages
- NSFW content may be filtered based on account settings
### 2. Create Posts
**When to use**: User wants to submit a new post to a subreddit
**Tool sequence**:
1. `REDDIT_LIST_SUBREDDIT_POST_FLAIRS` - Get available post flairs [Optional]
2. `REDDIT_CREATE_REDDIT_POST` - Submit the post [Required]
**Key parameters**:
- `subreddit`: Target subreddit name (without 'r/' prefix)
- `title`: Post title
- `text`: Post body text (for text posts)
- `url`: Link URL (for link posts)
- `flair_id`: Flair ID from the subreddit's flair list
**Pitfalls**:
- Some subreddits require flair; use LIST_SUBREDDIT_POST_FLAIRS first
- Subreddit posting rules vary widely; karma/age restrictions may apply
- Text and URL are mutually exclusive; a post is either text or link
- Rate limits apply; avoid rapid successive post creation
- The subreddit name should not include 'r/' prefix
### 3. Manage Comments
**When to use**: User wants to comment on posts or manage existing comments
**Tool sequence**:
1. `REDDIT_RETRIEVE_POST_COMMENTS` - Get comments on a post [Optional]
2. `REDDIT_POST_REDDIT_COMMENT` - Add a comment to a post or reply to a comment [Required]
3. `REDDIT_EDIT_REDDIT_COMMENT_OR_POST` - Edit an existing comment [Optional]
4. `REDDIT_DELETE_REDDIT_COMMENT` - Delete a comment [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `post_id`: ID of the post (for retrieving or commenting on)
- `parent_id`: Full name of the parent (e.g., 't3_abc123' for post, 't1_xyz789' for comment)
- `body`: Comment text content
- `thing_id`: Full name of the item to edit or delete
**Pitfalls**:
- Reddit uses 'fullname' format: 't1_' prefix for comments, 't3_' for posts
- Editing replaces the entire comment body; include all desired content
- Deleted comments show as '[deleted]' but the tree structure remains
- Comment depth limits may apply in some subreddits
### 4. Browse Subreddit Content
**When to use**: User wants to view top or trending content from a subreddit
**Tool sequence**:
1. `REDDIT_GET_R_TOP` - Get top posts from a subreddit [Required]
2. `REDDIT_GET` - Get posts from a subreddit endpoint [Alternative]
3. `REDDIT_RETRIEVE_REDDIT_POST` - Get full details for a specific post [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `subreddit`: Subreddit name
- `time_filter`: Time range for top posts ('hour', 'day', 'week', 'month', 'year', 'all')
- `limit`: Number of posts to retrieve
- `post_id`: Specific post ID for full details
**Pitfalls**:
- Top posts with time_filter='all' returns all-time top content
- Post details include the body text but comments require a separate call
- Some posts may be removed or hidden based on subreddit rules
- NSFW posts are included unless filtered at the account level
### 5. Manage Posts
**When to use**: User wants to edit or delete their own posts
**Tool sequence**:
1. `REDDIT_EDIT_REDDIT_COMMENT_OR_POST` - Edit a post's text content [Optional]
2. `REDDIT_DELETE_REDDIT_POST` - Delete a post [Optional]
3. `REDDIT_GET_USER_FLAIR` - Get user's flair in a subreddit [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `thing_id`: Full name of the post (e.g., 't3_abc123')
- `body`: New text content (for editing)
- `subreddit`: Subreddit name (for flair)
**Pitfalls**:
- Only text posts can have their body edited; link posts cannot be modified
- Post titles cannot be edited after submission
- Deletion is permanent; deleted posts show as '[deleted]'
- User flair is per-subreddit and may be restricted
## Common Patterns
### Reddit Fullname Format
**Prefixes**:
```
t1_ = Comment (e.g., 't1_abc123')
t2_ = Account (e.g., 't2_xyz789')
t3_ = Post/Link (e.g., 't3_def456')
t4_ = Message
t5_ = Subreddit
```
**Usage**:
```
1. Retrieve a post to get its fullname (t3_XXXXX)
2. Use fullname as parent_id when commenting
3. Use fullname as thing_id when editing/deleting
```
### Pagination
- Reddit uses cursor-based pagination with 'after' and 'before' tokens
- Set `limit` for items per page (max 100)
- Check response for `after` token
- Pass `after` value in subsequent requests to get next page
### Flair Resolution
```
1. Call REDDIT_LIST_SUBREDDIT_POST_FLAIRS with subreddit name
2. Find matching flair by text or category
3. Extract flair_id
4. Include flair_id when creating the post
```
## Known Pitfalls
**Rate Limits**:
- Reddit enforces rate limits per account and per OAuth app
- Posting is limited to approximately 1 post per 10 minutes for new accounts
- Commenting has similar but less restrictive limits
- 429 errors should trigger exponential backoff
**Content Rules**:
- Each subreddit has its own posting rules and requirements
- Some subreddits are restricted or private
- Karma requirements may prevent posting in certain subreddits
- Auto-moderator rules may remove posts that match certain patterns
**ID Formats**:
- Always use fullname format (with prefix) for parent_id and thing_id
- Raw IDs without prefix will cause 'Invalid ID' errors
- Post IDs from search results may need 't3_' prefix added
**Text Formatting**:
- Reddit uses Markdown for post and comment formatting
- Code blocks, tables, and headers are supported
- Links use `text` format
- Mention users with `u/username`, subreddits with `r/subreddit`

# YouTube Automation via Rube MCP
Automate YouTube operations through Composio's YouTube toolkit via Rube MCP.
## Prerequisites
- Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
- Active YouTube connection via `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `youtube`
- Always call `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` first to get current tool schemas
## Setup
**Get Rube MCP**: Add `https://rube.app/mcp` as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.
1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` responds
2. Call `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `youtube`
3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Google OAuth
4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
## Core Workflows
### 1. Upload and Manage Videos
**When to use**: User wants to upload a video or update video metadata
**Tool sequence**:
1. `YOUTUBE_UPLOAD_VIDEO` - Upload a new video [Required]
2. `YOUTUBE_UPDATE_VIDEO` - Update title, description, tags, privacy [Optional]
3. `YOUTUBE_UPDATE_THUMBNAIL` - Set a custom thumbnail [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `title`: Video title (max 100 characters)
- `description`: Video description (max 5000 bytes)
- `tags`: Array of keyword tags
- `categoryId`: YouTube category ID (e.g., '22' for People & Blogs)
- `privacyStatus`: 'public', 'private', or 'unlisted'
- `videoFilePath`: Object with `{name, mimetype, s3key}` for the video file
**Pitfalls**:
- UPLOAD_VIDEO consumes high quota; prefer UPDATE_VIDEO for metadata-only changes
- videoFilePath must be an object with s3key, not a raw file path or URL
- Tags total must not exceed 500 characters including separators
- Angle brackets `< >` in tags are automatically stripped
- Description limit is 5000 bytes, not characters (multibyte chars count more)
### 2. Search YouTube Content
**When to use**: User wants to find videos, channels, or playlists
**Tool sequence**:
1. `YOUTUBE_SEARCH_YOU_TUBE` - Search for content [Required]
2. `YOUTUBE_VIDEO_DETAILS` - Get full details for a specific video [Optional]
3. `YOUTUBE_GET_VIDEO_DETAILS_BATCH` - Get details for multiple videos [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `q`: Search query (supports exact phrases, exclusions, channel handles)
- `type`: 'video', 'channel', or 'playlist'
- `maxResults`: Results per page (1-50)
- `pageToken`: For pagination
**Pitfalls**:
- Search endpoint only returns 'snippet' part; use VIDEO_DETAILS for statistics
- Search results are capped at 500 total items
- Search has higher quota cost (100 units) vs list endpoints (1 unit)
- BATCH video details practical limit is ~50 IDs per call; chunk larger sets
### 3. Manage Playlists
**When to use**: User wants to create playlists or manage playlist contents
**Tool sequence**:
1. `YOUTUBE_LIST_USER_PLAYLISTS` - List user's existing playlists [Optional]
2. `YOUTUBE_CREATE_PLAYLIST` - Create a new playlist [Optional]
3. `YOUTUBE_ADD_VIDEO_TO_PLAYLIST` - Add a video to a playlist [Optional]
4. `YOUTUBE_LIST_PLAYLIST_ITEMS` - List videos in a playlist [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `playlistId`: Playlist ID ('PL...' for user-created, 'UU...' for uploads)
- `part`: Resource parts to include (e.g., 'snippet,contentDetails')
- `maxResults`: Items per page (1-50)
- `pageToken`: Pagination token from previous response
**Pitfalls**:
- Do NOT pass channel IDs ('UC...') as playlist IDs; convert 'UC' to 'UU' for uploads
- Large playlists require pagination via pageToken; follow nextPageToken until absent
- items[].id is not the videoId; use items[].snippet.resourceId.videoId
- Creating duplicate playlist names is allowed; check existing playlists first
### 4. Get Channel and Video Analytics
**When to use**: User wants to analyze channel performance or video metrics
**Tool sequence**:
1. `YOUTUBE_GET_CHANNEL_ID_BY_HANDLE` - Resolve a handle to channel ID [Prerequisite]
2. `YOUTUBE_GET_CHANNEL_STATISTICS` - Get channel subscriber/view/video counts [Required]
3. `YOUTUBE_LIST_CHANNEL_VIDEOS` - List all videos from a channel [Optional]

5. `YOUTUBE_GET_CHANNEL_ACTIVITIES` - Get recent channel activities [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `channelId`: Channel ID ('UC...'), handle ('@handle'), or 'me'
- `forHandle`: Channel handle (e.g., '@Google')
- `id`: Comma-separated video IDs for batch details
- `parts`: Resource parts to include (e.g., 'snippet,statistics')
**Pitfalls**:
- Channel statistics are lifetime totals, not per-period
- BATCH video details may return fewer items than requested for private/deleted videos
- Response data may be nested under `data` or `data_preview`; parse defensively
- contentDetails.duration uses ISO 8601 format (e.g., 'PT4M13S')
### 5. Manage Subscriptions and Comments
**When to use**: User wants to subscribe to channels or view video comments
**Tool sequence**:
1. `YOUTUBE_SUBSCRIBE_CHANNEL` - Subscribe to a channel [Optional]
2. `YOUTUBE_UNSUBSCRIBE_CHANNEL` - Unsubscribe from a channel [Optional]
3. `YOUTUBE_LIST_USER_SUBSCRIPTIONS` - List subscriptions [Optional]
4. `YOUTUBE_LIST_COMMENT_THREADS` - List comments on a video [Optional]
**Key parameters**:
- `channelId`: Channel to subscribe/unsubscribe
- `videoId`: Video ID for comment threads
- `maxResults`: Results per page
- `pageToken`: Pagination token
**Pitfalls**:
- Subscribing to an already-subscribed channel may return an error
- Comment threads return top-level comments with up to 5 replies each
- Comments may be disabled on some videos
- Unsubscribe requires the subscription ID, not the channel ID
## Common Patterns
### Channel ID Resolution
**Handle to Channel ID**:
```
1. Call YOUTUBE_GET_CHANNEL_ID_BY_HANDLE with '@handle'
2. Extract channelId from response
3. Use in subsequent channel operations
```
**Uploads Playlist**:
```
1. Get channel ID (starts with 'UC')
2. Replace 'UC' prefix with 'UU' to get uploads playlist ID
3. Use with LIST_PLAYLIST_ITEMS to enumerate all videos
```
### Pagination
- Set `maxResults` (max 50 per page)
- Check response for `nextPageToken`
- Pass token as `pageToken` in next request
- Continue until `nextPageToken` is absent
### Batch Video Details
- Collect video IDs from search or playlist listings
- Chunk into groups of ~50 IDs
- Call GET_VIDEO_DETAILS_BATCH per chunk
- Merge results across chunks
## Known Pitfalls
**Quota Management**:
- YouTube API has a daily quota limit (default 10,000 units)
- Upload = 1600 units; search = 100 units; list = 1 unit
- Prefer list endpoints over search when possible
- Monitor quota usage to avoid hitting daily limits
**ID Formats**:
- Video IDs: 11-character alphanumeric strings
- Channel IDs: Start with 'UC' followed by 22 characters
- Playlist IDs: Start with 'PL' (user) or 'UU' (uploads)
- Do not confuse channel IDs with playlist IDs
**Thumbnails**:
- Custom thumbnails require channel phone verification
- Must be JPG, PNG, or GIF; under 2MB
- Recommended: 1280x720 resolution (16:9 aspect ratio)
**Response Parsing**:
- Statistics values are returned as strings, not integers; cast before math
- Duration uses ISO 8601 format (PT#H#M#S)
- Batch responses may wrap data under different keys
