What it does

Trend To Product Mapper is an agent skill from MaxKmet/idea-validation-agents. Maps viral social content and trending topics to concrete app opportunities by extracting the underlying problem and validating monetization fit.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Social media posts, Health and fitness tracking and Brainstorming. It works with TikTok. The repository describes itself as: AI agents that act as your personal venture analyst - from startup idea brainstorming to full validation and go-to-market strategy. Built for developers who'd rather validate in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Social media posts
  • Tasks that involve Health and fitness tracking
  • Tasks that involve Brainstorming

Example prompts

  • “/trend-to-product-mapper”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. memory/market_insights/ — list any existing trend-analysis files; extract niche names from filenames (e.g., nutrition-tiktok-2026-04.md →…
  2. memory/user_profile.md — check for domain, interests, or background fields
  3. The current conversation — did the user mention a topic or market earlier?

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3a4c800. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are yaml and markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Trend To Product Mapper loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 526 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Maps viral social content and trending topics to concrete app opportunities by extracting the underlying problem and validating monetization fit.
<!-- version: 0.3.0 | outputs: memory/ideas/<slug>/idea.md (up to 10 per run) -->

Skill: trend-to-product-mapper

Purpose

Surface app ideas from real-world signals rather than speculation. The pipeline is: viral content → extract problem → map to app → validate monetization. This skill bridges social listening and product ideation.

User Interaction

Before executing, clarify which niche to analyze. Use available context to suggest options — don't ask blindly.

Step 1 — Infer candidates from context:

Check in this order:

  1. memory/market_insights/ — list any existing trend-analysis files; extract niche names from filenames (e.g., nutrition-tiktok-2026-04.md → "nutrition")
  2. memory/user_profile.md — check for domain, interests, or background fields
  3. The current conversation — did the user mention a topic or market earlier?

Step 2 — Present options:

If candidates were found from context:

Which niche would you like to map to a product opportunity?

Based on available research:

  • [inferred niche] (trend data: [platform] [period])
  • [other inferred niches if any]

Or describe your own — e.g., "productivity tools for freelancers", "pet care", "language learning"

If no candidates were found:

What niche or market category would you like to explore? A few starting points:

  • Fitness / nutrition / weight loss
  • Personal finance / investing
  • Mental health / mindfulness
  • Productivity / focus
  • Or describe your own in a few words

Step 3 — Confirm:

Once the user selects or describes a niche, confirm it back and proceed to Process.

Input

  • Target niche (e.g., "nutrition", "fitness", "personal finance")
  • memory/market_insights/<niche>-<platform>-<YYYY>-<MM>.md — one or more trend-analysis output files for the niche. Read the full narrative (Part 2) from each file; do not rely solely on the YAML frontmatter.
  • memory/user_profile.md to filter for user's domain fit and constraints

Pipeline

trend-analysis output → scan for distinct opportunities → extract problem per opportunity → validate monetization → write up to 10 idea.md files
What to Read from Trend-Analysis Output
Section in trend-analysis fileWhat to extract
Emerging / Rising TrendsFastest-moving problems and content angles
Financial OpportunitiesWillingness-to-pay evidence and market size estimates
Key Hashtags / Subreddits / Keyword ClustersVocabulary the audience uses for the problem
Strategic InsightsCreator gaps and underserved segments
monetization_evidence (YAML frontmatter)Quick-scan: is anyone already paying?

Prefer signals that appear across multiple platforms — cross-platform resonance is a stronger product signal than single-platform virality.

Show full SKILL.md (219 more words)Show less

Process

  1. Read available trend-analysis files relevant for the niche from memory/market_insights/.
  2. Scan the full narrative of each file and identify distinct product opportunities — different underlying problems, different audience segments, or different app categories count as distinct. Do not list variations of the same idea.
  3. Rank candidates by signal strength: weight cross-platform resonance and willingness-to-pay evidence most heavily. Drop candidates with no monetization signal.
  4. Take the top 5–10 candidates (only include as many as have genuine signal — do not pad to reach 10).
  5. For each candidate: extract the underlying problem (frustration or desire, not content topic), emotional trigger, audience vocabulary, app category, key features, key differentiator, and monetization evidence.
  6. Assign a slug to each idea (kebab-case, max 40 chars, derived from the app concept).
  7. Write one idea.md per idea to its own directory: memory/ideas/<slug>/idea.md.

Output

For each identified opportunity, write to memory/ideas/<slug>/idea.md.

The file uses YAML frontmatter for machine-readable metadata and a full narrative body for human readability and downstream skill consumption.

Body

Write the following sections in full prose or structured lists — no abbreviation:

markdown
# <App Concept Name>

## The Problem
What specific frustration or unmet desire is this idea addressing? Describe it from the user's perspective — the emotional experience, not the feature gap. Include the exact vocabulary the audience uses.

**Emotional trigger:** <the core feeling driving the behavior — anxiety, FOMO, shame, aspiration, etc.>

**Audience vocabulary:** <3–5 exact phrases pulled from hashtags, post titles, or search queries>

## Market Signal Evidence
What trend data supports this? For each platform covered, cite the specific signal:

- **TikTok:** <hashtag, view count, content angle>
- **Reddit:** <subreddit, recurring post type, upvote pattern>
- **App Store:** <category trend, review complaint pattern, new entrant activity>
- **Web Search:** <rising query, search volume indicator>

**Trend velocity:** <rising-fast | rising | stable | declining>
**Cross-platform resonance:** <yes/no — does the same problem appear on 2+ platforms?>

## App Concept
What is the app? Describe it in 2–3 sentences as if pitching to a user, not an investor. Focus on what it does and who it's for.

**App category:** <e.g., habit tracker, AI coach, marketplace, tool>

## Key Features
The 3–5 core features that directly address the problem. Each feature should map to a specific pain point or desire from the Market Signal Evidence section.

1. **<Feature name>** — <what it does and why it matters>
2. ...

## Key Differentiator
What makes this meaningfully different from what already exists? Reference the saturation assessment from the trend-analysis Financial Opportunities section. One clear wedge — not a feature list.

## Monetization Evidence
What proof exists that people pay for solutions to this problem?

- <existing product / revenue signal / pricing evidence>
- ...

**Monetization validated:** <yes/no>

## Confidence Assessment
**Overall confidence:** <high | medium | low>

Reasoning: <1–2 sentences explaining the confidence level — what's strong, what's uncertain>

After writing all files, present a summary table to the user:

#SlugApp ConceptConfidenceCross-PlatformMonetization
1<slug>...high/medium/lowyes/novalidated/unvalidated
...
