# Get Reddit chat inbox

Automatically get Reddit chat inbox on reddit.com. List the conversations in your Reddit chat inbox (DMs), newest activity first: room id + url, name, chat type, your membership (invite = a chat request you have not accepted), unread count, the other members, and the last message with its direction and real timestamp. Returns the whole inbox, not only what's currently visible on screen. Threads are a separate surface and are not listed. Runs only via the browser extension, not the hosted cloud browser.

## Run it

Ask an AI agent connected to Reduck over MCP (`https://mcp.reduck.ai/mcp`) to run `reduck/reddit.com/get_inbox`, or run it from a terminal:

```bash
npx @reduck-ai/cli@latest run --script reduck/reddit.com/get_inbox
```

## Input

- `limit` (integer, optional): Maximum number of conversations to return, newest activity first. Omit for every conversation the chat client holds.

## Output

- `me` (string, required): The signed-in account as chat identifies it, e.g. "@t2_29fgxvhi79:reddit.com" — the id `sent_by_me` compares senders against. Chat speaks account ids, not usernames; reddit.com/whoami names the account.
- `count` (number, required): How many conversations are returned (after `limit`).
- `conversations` (array, required)
