Documentation
China Hot Trending MCP
Real-time hot-search & trending boards from 8 major Chinese platforms in one MCP call — Weibo, Zhihu, Bilibili, Baidu, Toutiao, Douyin, Tieba and Juejin.
- Try it in 30 seconds: a free public MCP endpoint is already running — just paste the URL into your MCP client (no install, no API key).
- Or self-host: a single Python file, stdlib HTTP + FastMCP, zero paid dependencies.
⚡ Use the hosted endpoint (no setup)
https://mcp.pianam.cn/hot-mcp/mcpTransport: Streamable HTTP (MCP 2025-03-26 compatible). No authentication required.
🔌 Client configuration
Add this to your MCP client's `mcpServers` configuration (Claude Desktop `claude_desktop_config.json`, Cursor `mcp.json`, Cline, Cherry Studio, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"hot-trending": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.pianam.cn/hot-mcp/mcp"
}
}
}> Clients that do not accept `"type": "http"` (some Cherry Studio / older
> Cline versions) accept the same entry with just `"url"`.
🧰 Tools
| Tool | Parameters | Returns |
|---|---|---|
| `query_hot_trending(platform="all", limit=20)` | `platform`: one of `weibo` / `zhihu` / `bilibili` / `baidu` / `toutiao` / `douyin` / `tieba` / `juejin`, or `all` (default) — returns the top 10 of every board at once.`limit`: items per board for single-platform queries (1–50, default 20). | Each item: `rank`, `title`, `hot` (platform-specific popularity value), `url`. With `all` you get a `platforms` map plus a `failed` map (any degraded source never breaks the others). |
| `list_platforms()` | — | Returns the 8 supported platform slugs with Chinese and English display names. |
📡 Data sources, caching & limits
- Weibo `weibo.com/ajax/side/hotSearch`, Zhihu `api.zhihu.com/topstory`, Bilibili `api.bilibili.com/x/web-interface/popular`, Baidu `top.baidu.com/api/board`, Toutiao `toutiao.com/hot-event/hot-board`, Douyin `iesdouyin.com/web/api/v2/hotsearch/billboard/word`, Tieba `tieba.baidu.com/hottopic`, Juejin `api.juejin.cn/content_api/v1/article_rank`.
- All data comes from each platform's own public web/API endpoints — no API key, no login, no scraping of private data.
- Implementation inspired by the open-source DailyHotApi project (MIT) with a thin stdlib-only implementation.
- Results are cached in memory for 300 seconds; a failed source degrades gracefully.
- The hosted endpoint is rate-limited to 60 requests / minute / IP (HTTP 429 beyond that).
🐢 Self-hosting
git clone https://github.com/boy-373/hot-trending-mcp.git
cd hot-trending-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt
python hot_mcp_server.py
# the server listens on 127.0.0.1:8007 by default; override with:
# MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0 MCP_PORT=9000 python hot_mcp_server.py
# MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS="your-domain.com,127.0.0.1:*"
# MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS="https://your-domain.com"Then point your MCP client at `http://127.0.0.1:8007/mcp`.
No API keys or accounts are ever required.
- `platform_names.json` — Chinese/English display names of the 8 platforms (kept outside the code file so the source stays pure-ASCII).
🗂️ Files
- `hot_mcp_server.py` — the MCP server (FastMCP, Streamable HTTP transport).
- `rate_limit.py` — lightweight per-IP sliding-window rate-limit middleware (60 req/min default).

- `server.json` — official MCP Registry manifest (remote server entry, ready to publish with `mcp-publisher`).
