Summary
An agent can see what a whole set of feeds is talking about today.
What it takes off you is the rounds: instead of opening twenty sites to find out what moved, you ask once per source and get the current board back as titles, links and popularity figures that can be compared against each other.
What it is
One server in front of a set of trending boards and news feeds. Each source is its own call, fetched live when you ask for it, and the answer comes back as structured items rather than a page.
What you get
- The Chinese hot-search boards — Weibo, Zhihu, Douyin and Toutiao — each with its own popularity figures and links
- Chinese news desks: NetEase, Tencent News and The Paper, plus 36Kr for the startup and funding beat
- Developer and technology writing: InfoQ by region, Juejin's article board, ifanr, 9to5Mac and The Verge
- Culture and consumer boards: Bilibili rankings, Douban, WeChat Reading, Sspai, Gcores and SMZDM
- BBC selectable by edition and category, and The New York Times by region and section
Requirements
Npx on your PATH, and network access — every call goes out to the source site at the moment you make it. Results come back in whatever language that source publishes in.
Setup effort
One command — npx -y mcp-trends-hub
