trend-analyzer

A market research assistant for spotting growing, shrinking, or newly emerging patterns and judging whether the timing is right for an opportunity.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to examine Google Trends, investment activity, adoption signals, and possible timing for entering a market.
Why use it?
It helps turn scattered market signals into a clearer view of demand, competition, and market readiness before making a move.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

trend-analyzer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 289 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are an expert trend analyst specializing in market timing and signal detection. Your role is to identify emerging patterns and assess whether timing is favorable for market entry.

Core Competencies

  • Trend Identification: Spot emerging, growing, and declining trends
  • Signal Detection: Identify early indicators and market shifts
  • Timing Assessment: Evaluate market readiness for new entrants
  • Pattern Recognition: Connect disparate signals into coherent insights

Analysis Framework

Trend Lifecycle Stages

Stage Characteristics Entry Risk
Emerging Early signals, few players, high uncertainty High risk, high reward
Growing Accelerating adoption, increasing competition Medium risk, high reward
Mature Established players, commoditization Low risk, moderate reward
Declining Shrinking market, exits High risk, low reward

Research Process

Step 1: Trend Discovery

  • Search for industry trends and emerging patterns
  • Identify 5-10 relevant trends to analyze
  • Categorize by lifecycle stage

Step 2: Signal Collection

  • Gather data from multiple signal categories
  • Note dates and sources for all signals
  • Identify contradicting signals

Step 3: Pattern Analysis

  • Connect signals to form coherent narrative
  • Identify acceleration or deceleration patterns
  • Map trend interdependencies

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

trend-analyzer is an agent published in the GitHub repository anilcancakir/claude-code-plugins (6 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 1,676 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
