Ask Claude or ChatGPT about GitHub and it guesses from training data that is months old, or runs a web search and summarizes blog posts. No current numbers, no history, no dates.
It reads GitHub directly: trending repositories. Every answer has the real numbers and the date they are from.
Click your app. It opens with TrendsConnector already filled in. You sign in once with a free TrendsConnector account; there is no API key to copy.
| App | After you click |
|---|---|
| Claude | The connector name and URL are prefilled. Confirm, sign in to TrendsConnector, approve access. |
| ChatGPT | Turn on Developer mode under Settings → Security and login. Name it TrendsConnector, URL https://trendsconnector.com/mcp, choose OAuth, sign in. |
| Cursor | Approve the install. Sign in to TrendsConnector when Cursor asks. |
| VS Code | Approve the install. Open Chat in Agent mode and enable the TrendsConnector tools. |
One connector covers every source, so GitHub works the moment you add it. Other apps (Grok, Muse, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude Code and more): setup for every app.
