This repository contains the PeepTrend MCP server plus setup files for Codex, Claude, OpenClaw, and generic MCP clients.
If you installed PeepTrend from a marketplace and are not sure what to do next, start here:
PeepTrend gives AI agents focused tools for gaming creator research:
PeepTrend accounts can create API keys for MCP clients. Some tools are available to try with a free account; full reports, generated ideas, workflow actions, alerts, and higher usage are available from PeepTrend plans.
Codex:
codex plugin marketplace add PeepTrend/PeepTrend.MCP
codex plugin add peeptrend-youtube-gaming-trend-finder@peeptrend
Claude Code:
claude plugin marketplace add PeepTrend/PeepTrend.MCP
claude plugin install peeptrend-youtube-gaming-trend-finder@peeptrend
Generic MCP clients:
npm install -g peeptrend-mcp
Or run it directly:
npx -y peeptrend-mcp
Running the command manually prints setup instructions. In normal use, your AI client starts this package as an MCP server and communicates with it over stdio.
Create an API key in PeepTrend:
PEEPTREND_API_KEY.Example MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"peeptrend": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "peeptrend-mcp"],
"env": {
"PEEPTREND_API_KEY": "pt_key_from_profile"
}
}
}
}
An API key is recommended. It connects MCP requests to your PeepTrend account and enables account features when available.
Without an API key, public free checks can still run with public limits. Full opportunity feeds, reports, generated ideas, saved plans, alerts, account-aware limits, and subscription features need PEEPTREND_API_KEY.
npx -y peeptrend-mcp --doctor
Use --stdio only when a tool or MCP client explicitly asks for the raw MCP server process.

Store keys only in your MCP client's environment configuration and do not commit API keys to source control.
