npm download curves assistants can fetch for exact package names

JavaScript ecosystem decisions hinge on weekly download counts. Source npm requires the precise package string so assistants compare frameworks fairly and avoid fuzzy matches across similarly named libraries.

Precision matters in registry data

Two packages can differ by one character yet serve opposite stacks. Trends MCP enforces the exact-name rule documented beside source: "npm" in Data Sources.

Assistant habits

Ask the user to confirm the string from npmjs.com before running get_trends. When comparing React meta-frameworks, run sequential calls per package so each response stays tied to one keyword.

Tools for this workflow

`get_trends`

Show multi-year adoption for a library before a major version upgrade.

get_trends(keyword='react', source='npm', data_mode='weekly')

`get_growth`

Compare 3M and 12M download momentum between two candidate packages.

get_growth(keyword='vue', source='npm', percent_growth=['3M', '12M', 'YTD'])

`get_ranked_trends`

List npm packages with the fastest week-over-week download growth for radar reports.

get_ranked_trends(source='npm', sort='wow_pct_change', limit=30)

`get_top_trends`

Add a live macro feed when the brief mixes library adoption with breaking search topics; npm has no dedicated top list in this API.

get_top_trends(type='Google Trends', limit=15)

FAQ

Common questions

What source value should tools pass?

npm in lowercase as listed on trendsmcp.ai/docs.

How precise must the keyword be?

Exact package name as published on npm, including scoped packages such as @scope/name. Partial names or descriptions will not resolve reliably.

Why pair npm with google search or reddit?

Downloads show adoption; search and community signals show curiosity and debate. Assistants can call get_growth with comma-separated sources when the user wants a fuller technology narrative.

Does Trends MCP replace npm registry metadata?

No. It supplies trend series and growth. Version policy, security audits, and bundle size still come from engineering review.
