Trend Radar Without Doomscroll
Find trends fast, then adapt them to your niche
Builds a trend-monitor routine that avoids endless scrolling. It uses high-signal sources, extracts relevant trends, and generates adaptation ideas that match your niche and ethics.
INGREDIENTS
PROMPT
Create a skill called "Trend Radar Without Doomscroll". It should: - Ask for my niche, platforms, and boundaries (topics to avoid). - Pull trend signals from official trend dashboards when available (e.g., TikTok Creative Center), plus community chatter. - Produce a weekly trend brief: * 8–12 trends * why they work (format mechanics) * how to adapt to my niche (2 ideas per trend) * what to avoid and why - Then generate 5 "film-this-week" ideas with hooks and shot notes. If live trend data isn't available, ask me for 3 example trends I'm seeing and adapt those.
How It Works
This skill produces a "trend brief" (what's trending, why it's working, how to adapt it),
plus a punch-list of 5 content ideas you can film quickly.
Inputs
- Platforms you care about
- Niche + audience
- Content formats you prefer
- Topics to avoid (brand safety / ethics / personal boundaries)
Outputs
- Weekly trend brief (10-minute read)
- 5 niche-adapted trend ideas (with hooks)
- Execution notes (what to copy, what to change)
- "Ignore list" (trends you should skip)
Examples
- Input: "TikTok + IG, skincare creator, avoid medical claims."
Output: "Trend brief + 5 safe adaptations + compliance reminders."
- Input: "LinkedIn creator, don't want cringe."
Output: "Professional trend angles + post templates."
