The complete Lemmy.World capability set.

These are the exact actions your AI can choose when you ask it to work with Lemmy.World.

Capability set01 / 02

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 8 available through Lemmy.World.

  1. 01

    List posts

    Returns posts with title, URL, body excerpt, creator, community and engagement counts (score, comments). Without community_name you get the whole-instance feed; pass community_name (e.g. "technology") to see one community. Use sort to slice by relevance: Hot for what is trending now, TopDay/TopWeek/TopMonth for popular in a window, TopAll for the best ever, New for the latest. Paginate with page and limit (max 50). do NOT expect all posts in one call. Combine with list_comments on a post id to read the discussion. List posts on lemmy.world. the frontpage, a specific community, or top of a time window

  2. 02

    Get post

    Use it to inspect a specific post found via list_posts or search. To read the discussion, feed the same id to list_comments. IDs are large integers (e.g. 51703042). Fetch a single post by ID with full details and engagement counts

  3. 03

    List comments

    Pass post_id (from list_posts, get_post or search) to read that post's discussion. this is THE capability for reading replies. max_depth controls nesting (1 = top-level only, 3-6 shows the back-and-forth); sort=Top gives best-first, New gives latest. IMPORTANT: limit counts only TOP-LEVEL comments. nested replies up to max_depth are returned in addition, so a page can contain far more items than limit. Keep limit small (5-10) when max_depth > 1. Paginate with page for more top-level comments; deep threads may need several pages. Read the comment thread of a post

  4. 04

    List communities

    Use q to filter by keyword (e.g. q="gaming") or omit it to list the biggest. sort=TopAll ranks by subscribers (stable); Hot ranks by current activity. Community names (for list_posts community_name) are lowercase, e.g. "technology", "asklemmy", "games". Paginate with page and limit (max 50). Browse or search communities (subreddits) on lemmy.world, with subscriber counts

Capability set02 / 02

05-08

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 8 available through Lemmy.World.

  1. 05

    Search

    Type_ narrows the result kind: Posts, Comments, Communities, Users or Url (search by link URL); All returns every kind in one response. Results come back grouped per type with the matching views. post results include the post id you can feed to get_post/list_comments, community results include names usable in list_posts. sort=TopAll finds highest-scored matches; sort=New finds the freshest. Search is exact-keyword based (no fuzzy matching). try multiple phrasings if results are thin. Paginate with page and limit (max 50). Search posts, comments, communities and users on lemmy.world by keyword

  2. 06

    Get user

    Username is the local handle WITHOUT the @instance suffix (e.g. "ruud", not "ruud@lemmy.world"); for users federated from other instances, find their person_id via search (type_=Users) and pass person_id instead. Use it to check who is behind a post/comment or to see what someone has been posting. Fetch a user profile by username with their recent posts and comments

  3. 07

    Get site stats

    Cheap and keyless. use it first to gauge instance size and activity, or to answer "how big is lemmy.world". Instance-wide stats for lemmy.world: user counts, activity levels and admin list

  4. 08

    Get modlog

    Use it for transparency checks: why a post disappeared, who got banned where, moderation patterns of a community (pass community_id from search results). Paginate with page and limit (max 50). Entries are newest-first. Public moderation log: removed posts/comments, bans and community actions

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Lemmy.World to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

FAQ

Questions Lemmy.World owners ask.

  • 01

    Do I need a Lemmy account or API key?

    No. All capabilities use the public API of lemmy.world and require no credentials. subscribe and start querying immediately.

  • 02

    Can the agent post, vote or comment for me?

    No. this server is read-only by design. It exposes discovery and analysis of public content; writing (posting, voting, commenting) requires an authenticated account and is intentionally not included.

  • 03

    Can I read content from other Lemmy instances or federated users?

    Yes, partially. lemmy.world federates with the whole Fediverse, so its feeds include federated posts, communities and users. Local usernames in get_user must be lemmy.world accounts; for federated users, find their person_id via search (type_=Users).
