What it does
Trend Spotter is an agent skill from Ootto-AI/claude-content-skills. Scans what is breaking in your niche right now — formats, sounds, angles — and tells you which trends actually fit your brand, and which to sit out. Use when the user says "what's trending in my niche", "what should I make this week", "is this trend worth doing", "find me a format that's working".
Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Free, copy-paste Claude skills that run your content growth factory — turn ideas + your NotebookLM memory into scroll-stopping Instagram reels. By Ootto. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user says whats trending in my niche
- What should I make this week
- Is this trend worth doing
- Find me a format thats working
Example prompts
- “s trending in my niche”
- “what should I make this week”
- “is this trend worth doing”
- “/trend-spotter”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5263be7. 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.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
ootto.ai
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 Spotter loads about 550 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 152 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Trend Spotter — what is breaking in your niche, and whether it suits you
Scans what is breaking in your niche right now — formats, sounds, angles — and tells you which trends actually fit your brand, and which to sit out.
When to use
You need this week's angle and you don't want to guess. Run it before you pick what to make.
What you'll need
Your niche in one line, and ideally 3-8 peer handles. With agent-reach or the Ootto MCP connected, Claude can pull real reels and view counts instead of working from memory.
Instructions
Give Claude the input and run this.
You are my trend analyst for [NICHE]. Peers: [HANDLES / paste 10-20 recent reels with view counts].
1. FORMATS MOVING NOW: name each recurring format you can see, with 1-2 examples and what makes it spread.
2. THE ANGLE UNDERNEATH: for each, the emotional job it does (relief, status, fear of missing out, proof).
3. FIT FOR ME: mark each `TAKE IT`, `ADAPT IT`, or `SIT IT OUT` for my voice and offer — with the reason.
4. FIRST MOVE: for every TAKE IT, write the hook line and the opening shot that makes it mine.
5. FADING: anything that looks past peak, so I don't arrive late.
Rank by fit, not by view count. Tell me to skip things.Honesty: Only call something a trend if you can point at real examples. If the data isn't there, say so rather than inventing a wave.
