An MCP-compatible server for monitoring keyword mentions across social platforms. This actor tracks keywords on Reddit and Hacker News, returning structured results with titles, authors, scores, and comment counts for each mention found.
Features
- Multi-Platform Monitoring - Searches Reddit and Hacker News simultaneously for your keywords
- Reddit Search - Uses Reddit's JSON API to find recent posts matching your keywords across all subreddits
- Hacker News Search - Uses the Algolia-powered HN API for fast, comprehensive keyword search
- Structured Results - Returns clean JSON with platform, title, URL, author, score, comment count, and timestamps
- MCP Compatible - Designed for AI agent frameworks using the Model Context Protocol
- Multi-Keyword Support - Track multiple keywords in a single run
How It Works
The actor builds search requests for each keyword-platform combination. For Reddit, it queries the Reddit JSON search API with results sorted by newest first. For Hacker News, it uses the Algolia HN Search API to find matching stories and comments. All results are parsed and stored as structured JSON in the Apify dataset.
Input Configuration
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
keywords | Array | ["apify", "web scraping"] | Keywords to monitor |
platforms | Array | ["reddit", "hackernews"] | Platforms to search |
maxResults | Integer | 50 | Maximum total results to return |
Output Format
Each result contains: platform (Reddit or Hacker News), keyword, title, url, author, subreddit (Reddit only), score (upvotes/points), commentCount, selfText (post body excerpt), postedAt, and scrapedAt.
