Connect Reddit to Slack
Automate Reddit and Slack with AI
Brand mentions and subreddit threads on Reddit pile up while community and marketing coordinate in Slack. Your Operator agent on OpenClaw watches the subreddits and keywords you define, posts new posts and comment spikes to the channel you pick, and can pull thread context when someone asks in Slack before drafting a reply. Tell it what surfaced overnight about your product name and it reads Reddit and summarizes in Slack with links to each thread.
It reaches both apps directly or through connectors like Composio MCP and Pipedream MCP, which handle the sign in and token refresh, so there is no Zap to build and no API keys to paste.

How it works
Tell the agent what you want to happen between Reddit and Slack, for example to watch one and act in the other, or to keep the two in step. It reads what it needs from Reddit, works out what to do, and runs the matching action in Slack without you mapping a single field.
You can have it run once, on a schedule, or whenever something changes. Ask it for a status any time and it reads the latest from both apps back to you in the same chat.
Common questions about Reddit and Slack
- How do I connect Reddit and Slack to Operator?
- You authorize Reddit and Slack once each from your Operator dashboard. Operator holds both connections and refreshes the access tokens for you, so your agent keeps working across them without you signing in again.
- What can my agent do across Reddit and Slack?
- You describe the outcome in plain language and your agent works between the two, reading from one and acting in the other. It picks the right Reddit and Slack actions on its own, so you do not map fields or pick triggers.
- Can my agent keep Reddit and Slack in sync?
- Yes. It can watch Reddit and act in Slack, or keep both in step, reading from one and running the matching update in the other. This runs on demand when you ask or on a schedule you set.
- Do I need to build a workflow or write code?
- No. There is no workflow to build, no fields to map, and no API keys to paste. Operator manages both connections, and you give the agent instructions in plain language.
