Typically it would look something like this:

myApp :: AppConfig -> Application

main = do appConfig <- getAppConfig run 3000 $ myApp appConfig

Within myApp, you can now access the AppConfig value and use runReaderT to unwrap your MyApp transformer.

Is a consequence of this design that I have to use runReaderT every time I want to use a function of the type (Foo -> MyApp Bar) from within myApp? Is it better/easier to simply rewrite the all functions myApp calls so that they accept an AppConfig parameter instead of returning a MyApp Bar? -- Alex
