New-Term Radar — Claude Code MCP server: catch new AI terms
Spots new model, product and repo names the day they surface and maps the search terms behind them. For anyone building pages around fresh terms.
claude mcp add --env AISA_API_KEY=<AISA_API_KEY> --env GOANYAPI_API_KEY=<GOANYAPI_API_KEY> --env RADAR_CONFIG=<RADAR_CONFIG> --env RADAR_STATE=<RADAR_STATE> --transport stdio new-term-radar -- uvx new-term-radarWhat New-Term Radar does
The radar runs six signals daily: X posts, models and demos new to Hugging Face trending, GitHub repos under 14 days old averaging 200+ stars a day, new URLs in sitemaps, freshly indexed domains, and Search Console queries. It also pulls Reddit asks, sites that just added a first payment link, and products with verified revenue. Google Trends is not a source here — it is the check, run 14 days after each lead.
The package is Python and starts through uvx. Alongside the MCP server there are three Agent Skills and a pains command. Signals from X, Reddit, new domains and sellers need an AIsa key; revenue data needs a TrustMRR key; visit data takes an optional GoAnyAPI key. Without the AIsa key, part of the signals will not run.
What comes out is a keyword table: each new name gets the generic search phrases around it, a size estimate, a page-one room check and a decision. Config and state are set through RADAR_CONFIG and RADAR_STATE.
What it helps with
- learn a new model name the day it appears, not two weeks later
- find the search phrases around a fresh term before keyword tools list them
- track a repo gaining stars faster than usual
- collect Reddit asks an AI tool could answer
- check whether a term held up 14 days after the first signal
Example prompts for the agent
- Show today's new terms and the searches behind them
- Which GitHub repos are averaging 200+ stars a day?
- Run the
painscommand and collect Reddit asks about AI tools
