npm connector page · Get started free · All connectors · Docs
You: Pull the npm download trend for langchain, weekly.
Claude: (uses the npm connector) The series, the growth over each window, and the dates compared.
Ask Claude or ChatGPT about npm 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 npm directly: weekly package downloads. 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 npm works the moment you add it. Other apps (Grok, Muse, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude Code and more): setup for every app.

- Weekly package downloads
| Data | Ask with | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| History and growth | a keyword: exact package name, case-sensitive e.g. react, @babel/core | npm package weekly downloads |
Pass the exact package name. It is case-sensitive. Scoped names such as @babel/core are valid.
Good to know: This is weekly downloads for that package. It is not GitHub stars, and it is not PyPI. Python packages are on the PyPI connector.
Are package names case-sensitive?
Yes. Pass the exact npm name, such as react or @babel/core.
Does this include Python packages?
No. PyPI downloads are on the PyPI connector.
Is the npm connector free?
Yes. The free plan has 100 requests a month and includes every source. No credit card. Paid plans start at $19 a month for 1,000 requests.

Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, Grok, Muse, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Windsurf and any app that supports MCP connectors.
