"trends-hub": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-trends-hub@1.6.2"

```
<!-- usage-json-end -->
### Command Line Configuration

<!-- usage-bash-end -->
### Installation
#### Install via Smithery

```bash
npx -y @smithery/cli install @baranwang/mcp-trends-hub --client claude
```
(The following is applicable only to MCP model clients)
### Configure Environment Variables
### `TRENDS_HUB_HIDDEN_FIELDS` - List of Hidden Fields
This environment variable controls the visibility of fields in the returned data:
- Applies to all tools: `{field-name}`, e.g., `cover`
- Applies to specific tools: `{tool-name}:{field-name}`, e.g., `get-toutiao-trending:cover`
Multiple configurations are separated by commas, for example:
```jsonc
{
"mcpServers": {
"trends-hub": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-trends-hub"],
"env": {
"TRENDS_HUB_HIDDEN_FIELDS": "cover,get-nytimes-news:description" // Hide cover return for all tools and description for New York Times news
}
}
}
}
```
### `TRENDS_HUB_CUSTOM_RSS_URL` - Custom RSS Subscription Source
Trends Hub supports adding custom RSS sources via environment variables:
```jsonc
{
"mcpServers": {
"trends-hub": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-trends-hub"],
"env": {
"TRENDS_HUB_CUSTOM_RSS_URL": "https://news.yahoo.com/rss" // Add Yahoo News RSS
}
}
}
}
```
After configuration, the `custom-rss` tool will be automatically added to fetch content from the specified RSS subscription source.
