# Trending in my niche

Find the fastest-growing recent video in a niche and turn it into shorts.

Slash command: `/trending-to-shorts` (Claude Code: `/mcp__clipspeed__trending-to-shorts`). Server: `https://api.clipspeed.ai/mcp` (one URL for clipping and creation).

## How a person asks

```
Find the fastest-growing AI tools video this week and tell me why it is taking off. Ask before you clip it.
```

What to have ready: Your niche in a few words.

## What to do

1. Do it. This skill is free.
2. Report back briefly, then offer the next step and its price without running it.

Tools: `discover_trending`, `submit_to_clipspeed`, `check_clips`.

- `discover_trending`: find the fastest-growing recent video in a niche
- `submit_to_clipspeed`: clip a video URL into captioned 9:16 shorts
- `check_clips`: get a project's finished clips

## Spending rules

- Credits are shown before anything runs, and the AI asks before it spends; their per-generation max and daily cap (set in Settings, not changeable by the AI) hold either way.
- The person sets a per-generation maximum and a daily MCP credit cap in ClipSpeed (Subscription & Credits). If a request is over either, say so and point them to https://www.clipspeed.ai/app/?tab=account. Never split a job to get under a cap.
- Clipping is 2 credits per minute of source video; live clipping is 1 credit per minute watched. Plans: Starter 300, Pro 600, Ultra 1,500 credits a month.
