The fastest way to find real SaaS customers on Reddit with Claude Code is the packaged version of the workflow, not a prompt you write yourself: connect Reddit, install the reddit-lead-finder skill, and hand it your product. It searches by both category and pain vocabulary, scores every candidate on Customer Fit, Problem Severity, and Purchase Intent, checks each subreddit's self-promotion rules, and hands back a short ranked report with quotes and links.
1. Connect Reddit to Claude Code
One command:
claude mcp add --transport http threadsnoop https://api.threadsnoop.com/mcp \
--header "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY"Full walkthrough (getting a key, verifying the connection): connecting Reddit to Claude Code.
2. Install the reddit-lead-finder skill
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/reddit-lead-finder && curl -o ~/.claude/skills/reddit-lead-finder/SKILL.md https://threadsnoop.com/skills/reddit-lead-finder/SKILL.mdOne command, no zip to unpack. Full details (what it does, scoping it to one project instead of every project) on the skills page.
3. Try it
Ask Claude something like:
“Find me Reddit leads for [your product's URL or a short description].”
Claude loads the skill automatically — no slash command, no flag — and walks you through a quick confirm-back step before it starts searching.
What you get back
A short ranked list, each entry scored on Customer Fit (does this person match who you built the product for), Problem Severity (how real and current is the pain), and Purchase Intent (are they actually looking for something, not just venting) — with the quote that convinced the model and a link to the thread. It only finds and scores; it never posts, comments, or DMs on Reddit itself.
Prefer to build your own search prompt instead of using the packaged skill? the DIY workflow covers that. Using Claude Desktop or claude.ai web instead? See the Desktop or web version of this guide.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to write my own search prompt?
No -- that's the difference between this and the DIY workflow. The reddit-lead-finder skill handles subreddit search, scoring, and rules-checking itself; you just hand it a product URL or description.
Does this post or comment on Reddit for me?
No. The skill only finds and scores leads -- it never posts, comments, or DMs on Reddit. Reaching out is always a separate, manual step you do yourself.
What does the skill actually score each lead on?
Three dimensions: Customer Fit (does this person match your ICP), Problem Severity (how real and current the pain is), and Purchase Intent (are they actually looking for a solution, not just venting) -- the same rubric the ThreadSnoop product itself scores matches on.
