What This Skill Does

Fetches current trending topics on X (Twitter) for any supported country using getdaytrends.com as a public aggregator. No account or API key required. Outputs a colorized table or raw JSON for scripting.

Bypasses the X API entirely, so you get trending data without a paid developer account or OAuth setup.

When to use it

  • Check what's trending in the US before scheduling a post
  • Pull trending topics into a script for automated analysis
  • Compare trends across multiple countries in one session
  • Get tweet volume data for a specific topic
  • Monitor global trends for a news or research brief
