TrendsConnector for Kiro

Connect TrendsConnector to Kiro with one MCP config entry. Specs and agents get live trend context.

Kiro reads MCP servers from its settings config at workspace or user level. One entry with the TrendsConnector URL and your key adds trend history, growth and live boards. Every series comes back on a shared 0 to 100 index, so one answer can compare Google, YouTube, TikTok, Amazon and the rest without a per platform account, scraper or API key.

Example prompt for Kiro

Using TrendsConnector, is demand for this feature area growing on Google and Reddit?

What you can pull

History and growth return weekly points on a 0 to 100 index, with absolute volume where the source provides it. Growth can compare several windows and several sources in one call. Live boards return the current ranked list with no keyword at all. Popular starting points:

Good to know

Workspace config travels with the repo. Reference the key rather than committing it when the repo is shared.

TrendsConnector returns trend data: history, growth and live boards on a normalized scale. It is not a scraper, and it does not return raw posts, videos, listings or personal data. The full client setup reference, including copy paste config for every supported client, is in the docs connect guide.

Questions

Workspace or user level?

User level covers every project. Workspace level suits a team that wants the same trend tools in one repo.

Does Kiro need the server enabled separately?

Yes. Kiro lets you toggle MCP servers. A connected but disabled server shows no tools.

Is TrendsConnector free in Kiro?

Yes, to start. The Free plan includes 100 requests a month, every data source, and both MCP and API access, with no credit card. Paid plans (Starter $19, Pro $49, Business $199 a month) raise the request limit and history depth. Annual billing saves 20 percent.

Which sources can I query once this is connected?

Every source on the same key: Google Trends, Google Shopping, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, Amazon, Wikipedia, news, app, Steam, npm, PyPI, X, Spotify, GitHub, IMDb, Open Library, Substack and web traffic series, plus the live ranked boards. Ask for up to five years of weekly history or growth over windows such as 3M, 12M and YTD.

Do I need a separate key for each client?

No. One TrendsConnector key works in every client and as a Bearer token for direct REST calls. Register it in each client you use.
