TrendRadar is an MCP server that aggregates trending news and hot topics from 11+ platforms (Zhihu, Weibo, Baidu, Bilibili, etc.) and RSS feeds, exposing them to AI agents through 17 analysis tools. It enables AI assistants to query historical news data, perform sentiment analysis, detect trending topics, and generate summaries via natural language. Developers integrate it into MCP-compatible clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cherry Studio) to give AI agents real-time awareness of news trends, keyword tracking, and cross-platform correlation analysis. The server stores data locally in SQLite or remotely (S3-compatible), supports Docker deployment, and includes automated scheduled crawling.
