## Why content-genie?

Most "trend" MCPs are thin wrappers around Google Trends. If you're publishing for a Korean audience (Naver Blog, YouTube Korea, Instagram KR, TikTok), Google alone misses the signal — Naver Datalab, Daum search, Zum realtime, and KR-region YouTube each surface different keywords at different hours. content-genie consolidates **all five sources** into one MCP, layers a **100+ Korean-holiday + 14일-day-series + 절기 event database** so Claude can plan around 빼빼로데이 and 수능 without being told, and finishes the loop with a **viral-score predictor** trained on the structural patterns (numbers, brackets, emotional triggers, urgency words) that move CTR in Korean content.

The Phase 4 refactor (v2.12.0, May 2026) made the whole thing safe to depend on: every scraper sits behind a **per-source circuit breaker** (3 fails → open 5 min) with a **stale-cache fallback**, so a Naver HTML change no longer takes the whole MCP down — it just degrades that one source and tells the LLM about it via `resource://content-genie/sources`.

## What's new in v2.12.0

- **17 tools, one registry, six small files.** The old 4,712-line `index.ts` is gone — tools live in `src/tools/{trends,seo,contentIdeas,viralScoring,competitorAnalysis,koreanEvents}.ts`. Adding a tool is a one-liner.
- **Scrapers can't take the server down anymore.** Per-source circuit breaker + LRU/TTL cache (15 min, 100 entries) + stale fallback. When Naver is degraded, Claude sees `source_status: 'stale'` and adapts.
- **Two new MCP Resources for `@-mention`.** `resource://content-genie/korean-events/{year}` returns the full event DB rebased to any year; `resource://content-genie/sources` exposes live breaker + cache state.
- **Two MCP Prompts as guided workflows.** `viral-title` chains `optimize_title_hashtags` → `predict_viral_score` → `generate_ab_test_variants`. `competitor-analysis` does URL analysis + gap-filling ideation.
- **38 tests across 8 suites.** Circuit breaker transitions, cache eviction, scraper fallback paths, SSRF guard, every tool group — runs on Node 20 + 22 in CI.

## 5-minute Quickstart

```bash
# 1. Install via Claude Code (recommended)
claude mcp add content-genie -- npx -y content-genie-mcp

# 2. Or add to Claude Desktop's claude_desktop_config.json:
```

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "content-genie": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "content-genie-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

3. Restart Claude Desktop (or `claude` will pick it up on the next run).
4. Try this in Claude:

```
오늘 한국에서 뜨는 키워드 5개로 유튜브 쇼츠 제목 후보 3개씩 만들고, 각각 바이럴 점수 등급 매겨줘.
```

5. Expected: Claude calls `get_korean_trends` (naver+daum+google+youtube+zum merged) → `optimize_title_hashtags` per keyword → `predict_viral_score` → returns a ranked S/A/B/C/D grade table with the structural reason ("제목에 숫자 + 호기심 트리거 포함").

## Real use cases

### 1. "I need a Korean blog post topic that won't be obsolete by tomorrow"
**Problem:** Naver Blog rewards quick takes on the keywords trending *right now*, but those keywords change every 4 hours.
**With this MCP:** Claude calls `get_korean_trends({ platform: 'naver', limit: 20 })` and then `generate_content_ideas` against the freshest 5 keywords with `seasonal: true`. The seasonal layer adds upcoming Korean events from the 100+ DB — so the suggestion isn't just "AI 추천 도구" but "AI 추천 도구 + 수능 D-30 콘텐츠 기획" because `get_seasonal_content_guide` saw 수능 is 4 weeks out.
**Why it's better than the Naver Datalab UI:** Datalab gives you a chart. This MCP gives you 5 titled, hashtag-optimized post drafts grounded in those same trends, in one conversational round-trip.

### 2. "Will this YouTube Shorts title actually pop?"
**Problem:** Title CTR is the single biggest lever on Shorts, but you only know after you publish.
**With this MCP:** Paste your draft into Claude, say "use the `viral-title` prompt". The prompt chains `optimize_title_hashtags` → `predict_viral_score` → `generate_ab_test_variants` and returns an S~D grade plus 5 A/B variants with the structural deltas (added number, added urgency word, shortened to 25 chars).
**Why it's better than vibes:** the scorer reads the same 6 signal classes a Korean copywriter would — emotional triggers (`충격|실화|숨겨진`), structural elements (numbers/brackets/`?`/`!`), urgency, social proof, utility framings (`방법|꿀팁|노하우`), and length window — and tells you which ones are missing.

### 3. "I run a small Korean brand, I need a content calendar that respects local holidays"
**Problem:** Generic calendar tools don't know about 빼빼로데이, 김장철, 수능, or 한가위 연휴, so you end up posting a promo on 현충일.
**With this MCP:** Claude calls `create_content_calendar({ months: 3, niche: 'beauty' })`, which joins your 3-month window against the 100+ event DB (공휴일 18 + 데이 시리즈 12 + 절기 15 + 상업 이벤트 15 + 시즌/날씨 12 + 입시 10 + 쇼핑 10 + 크리에이터 특화 8) and produces a date-by-date plan with content themes per event.
**Why it's better than a Notion template:** the DB is rebased to any year (`resource://content-genie/korean-events/2027` is a single `@-mention` away), so the calendar stays accurate next year without you maintaining it.

## How it works

```
                    Claude (or any MCP client)
                              │
                              ▼
                        McpServer (SDK 1.25)
                              │
                  ┌───────────┼───────────┐
                  ▼           ▼           ▼
              17 tools    Resources    Prompts
                  │
                  ▼
            runScraper()  ◄── core/cache.ts (LRU + 15min TTL)
                  │       ◄── core/circuitBreaker.ts (3-fail → open 5min)
                  ▼
         scrapers/{naver,daum,google,youtube,zum}.ts
                  │
                  ▼
            core/security.ts (SSRF + 30s timeout + 5MiB cap)
```

Three design choices that matter:
1. **Per-source circuit breaker.** A bad day at Naver doesn't take down 16 other tools — only the trend tools that need Naver, and even those return a stale-cache `status: 'stale'` envelope so the LLM can adapt.
2. **Scrapers never throw.** They return a `ScrapeResult` envelope (`ok | stale | unavailable`). All error handling is in one place (`runScraper`), so adding a new source is "write a scraper, return `ScrapeResult`, done".
3. **Event DB rebased on read.** The 100+ Korean holiday/event database is stored as month-day rules and rebased to any year on demand — so `…/korean-events/2027` works today.

## Configuration

| Env var | Default | Purpose |
|---------|---------|---------|
| `MCP_HTTP_MODE` | `false` | `true` to run as Streamable HTTP server instead of stdio |
| `HOST` | `0.0.0.0` | HTTP bind host |
| `PORT` | `3000` | HTTP bind port |
| `CONTENT_GENIE_ALLOWED_HOSTS` | KR search/social/commerce allowlist | Comma-separated host allowlist for `analyze_competitor_content` SSRF guard. Override to add your own competitor domains. |

HTTP endpoints (when `MCP_HTTP_MODE=true`):

| Method | Path | Purpose |
|--------|------|---------|
| GET | `/` | Server info |
| GET | `/health` | Health probe (Railway/Docker) |
| POST | `/mcp` | MCP JSON-RPC requests (2025-03-26 spec) |
| GET | `/mcp` | SSE stream for server-initiated messages |

## Known limitations

- **Scrapers are HTML-driven.** Naver / Daum / Zum don't expose public trend APIs; the scrapers parse HTML. When they change their markup, the affected source returns `status: 'unavailable'` until we ship a parser fix. The circuit breaker keeps the rest of the MCP working in the meantime.
- **Viral score is structural, not semantic.** `predict_viral_score` is a heuristic over Korean copy patterns. It can't read the *meaning* of your post — only the structural / emotional / urgency signals in the title + description.
- **No thumbnail image analysis.** `analyze_thumbnail` works on a *thumbnail concept description*, not on an uploaded image. Image-in is on the roadmap.
- **Korean-first.** Hashtag templates, urgency words, and the event DB are Korean. English/JP modes are not in scope for v2.x.

## When NOT to use this

- If you need a **global trend dashboard**, use Google Trends directly — content-genie is opinionated toward the Korean creator stack.
- If you need **paid keyword data with search volume** (네이버 검색광고 API, Ahrefs, SEMrush), use those — content-genie's SEO tools rely on free autocomplete + heuristic long-tail expansion.
- If you need **deterministic LLM-free copy generation** for compliance reasons, this MCP feeds an LLM — the LLM is what writes the actual titles.

## Comparison

| | content-genie-mcp | Raw scraping yourself | Naver Datalab UI | SmartEditor / 네이버 검색광고 API |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Multi-source merge (5 KR sources) | yes | DIY | Naver only | Naver only |
| Korean event DB built-in | 100+ events | no | no | no |
| Circuit breaker + cache | yes | DIY | n/a | n/a |
| Viral score heuristic | yes | no | no | no |
| MCP-native (Claude `@-mention` events) | yes | no | no | no |
| Cost | free (npm) | dev time | free | paid above quota |

## Roadmap

- **More sources.** Tistory realtime, Brunch picks, Kakao View — currently 5 sources, want 8.
- **Image-in thumbnail analysis.** Accept uploaded thumbnails and run vision-based CTR scoring.
- **Cached-trend Resource.** Expose `resource://content-genie/trends/{platform}/latest` so the LLM can `@-mention` last-scrape results without spending a tool call.
- **Video script → captions/subtitles.** Pair `generate_script_outline` with a captions formatter for Shorts upload.
- **Naver 검색광고 API integration (opt-in).** When the user supplies an API key, switch SEO tools from autocomplete heuristics to real search volume.

## Contributing

## 한국어 요약

content-genie-mcp는 한국 콘텐츠 크리에이터를 위한 MCP 서버입니다. **네이버 / 다음 / 구글 / 유튜브 / 줌** 5개 소스의 실시간 트렌드를 한 번에 합쳐 보여주고, **100+ 한국 기념일/이벤트 DB**(공휴일 18, 데이 시리즈 12, 절기 15, 상업 이벤트 15, 시즌/날씨 12, 입시 10, 쇼핑 10, 크리에이터 특화 8)와 **바이럴 점수 예측기**(S~D 등급, 한국어 카피 패턴 기반)를 함께 제공합니다.

v2.12.0(2026-05-20)에서 **17개 도구**가 도메인별로 모듈화되었고, **스크래퍼별 회로 차단기 + LRU 캐시 + stale fallback** 으로 한 소스가 망가져도 나머지가 정상 동작합니다. `@-mention` 가능한 **MCP Resources 2개**와 슬래시 명령용 **Prompts 2개**도 추가되었습니다.

설치 (Claude Code):

```bash
claude mcp add content-genie -- npx -y content-genie-mcp
```

첫 호출 예시:

```
오늘 한국에서 뜨는 키워드 5개로 유튜브 쇼츠 제목 후보 3개씩 만들고, 각각 바이럴 점수 등급 매겨줘.
```
