com.hooktrendPublished by hooktrend.comOfficial publisherv1.0.0Updated Nov 14, 2026
TikTok and YouTube videos breaking out in any niche, ranked by views ÷ the creator's usual views.
Overview
Remote MCP server that lets an assistant find TikTok and YouTube videos breaking out in a niche, ranked by views versus the creator's usual views.
- What you can do
- Find breaking-out videos, niche outliers and videos on any topic, ranked by × usual
- List niches and pull niche reports with outliers, creators, sounds and hashtags
- Track rising sounds and hashtags and their lifecycle
- Look up and study a TikTok or YouTube creator
- Create and review research agents that watch a brief's keywords, plus outlier cards
- Check plan, credits, limits and the cost of an action before running it
- When to use it
- Useful when you want trend research on short-form video: spotting small creators blowing up, checking what is working in a niche, or having an agent watch keywords on a schedule.
- Requirements
- Remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; no local package. Sign in with OAuth (dynamic client registration, PKCE) or send a HookTrend API key as an Authorization Bearer header. A free account needs no card and includes 25 library reads a day.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open HookTrend in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.hooktrend%2Fhooktrend/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

One URL
Remote MCP server over Streamable HTTP. Sign in with OAuth when your app asks (dynamic client registration, PKCE), or send a HookTrend API key as Authorization: Bearer <key>. A free account needs no card and includes 25 library reads a day.
This repository holds no server code. It packages that URL for each client: a thin skill, plugin manifests and the MCP Registry entry.
Add it to your AI
Claude (web and desktop)
- Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
- Name it
HookTrendand pastehttps://hooktrend.com/api/mcp. - Click Connect and sign in.
ChatGPT (Plus, Pro and Business)
- Open Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced and turn on Developer mode.
- Click Create, name it
HookTrend, pastehttps://hooktrend.com/api/mcpand pick OAuth. - Sign in, then switch HookTrend on from the + menu in a new chat.
Claude Code
Then type /mcp, pick hooktrend and choose Authenticate.
Or install the plugin (MCP server + skill) from this repo:
Cursor
One click: Add HookTrend to Cursor
Or open Cursor Settings → MCP → New MCP server and paste:
Then click Connect next to HookTrend and sign in. This repo is also a Cursor plugin (.cursor-plugin/plugin.json, mcp.json, skills/).
Codex
Or in ~/.codex/config.toml:
n8n (AI Agent node)
- In HookTrend, create a key in Settings → API keys.
- In your AI Agent node, add the MCP Client tool and paste
https://hooktrend.com/api/mcp. - Choose HTTP Streamable and Bearer Auth, then paste your key.
Then just ask
- "What's breaking out on TikTok this week?"
- "What's working in cooking right now?"
- "Find small creators blowing up with protein breakfast videos."
- "Watch Spanish home workouts for me every Monday."
- "How many credits do I have?"
Answers come back as real videos with their × usual score: the video's views divided by the creator's usual views per video. A 40,000-view video from a 2,000-view account is a 20× outlier, so small creators surface next to big ones.

Tools
Anything that costs credits returns a quote first and spends nothing. It only runs when the same call comes back with user_approved: true, after you say yes. The live list, with example calls and responses, is at hooktrend.com/docs/mcp.

What's in this repo
The skill is deliberately thin: it tells the assistant when to use HookTrend and defers everything else to the server's live instructions and the agent guide. The canonical copy is served at hooktrend.com/agents/SKILL.md (zip: hooktrend-skill.zip).

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
