metalworks turns real Reddit conversations into demand reports, and gives you the OAuth, search, and compliance primitives to act on them. It is MIT licensed and built by the team behind Clique, extracted from the production pipeline that runs it.
Pre-release (0.0.1). APIs below 1.0 are unstable except the metalworks.contract models and the MCP tool contracts. Some surfaces are marked “planned for 0.1” where they are not wired yet.

What you can do

  • Demand reports: a research brief becomes a clustered report whose quotes are exact-matched to real Reddit comments and whose web findings carry source URLs from grounding metadata, never model prose.
  • Reddit engagement: search, subreddit intel, inbox, rate-limited OAuth and posting, and a deterministic compliance gate.
  • Four form factors: a Python library, a CLI, an MCP server, and a Claude Code plugin that share one typed contract.

Where to start

Your first demand report

From the zero-key offline demo to a real, grounded report.

Quickstart

Protocols reference

The ChatModel, search, embedding, and storage protocols.

Why open-core

The boundary with Clique and the provenance principle.
