Connect Whop Trends to Claude Code
Add the Whop Trends MCP server to Claude Code with one command. Claude can then search Whop products, read revenue estimates, and pull daily history.
Before you start
- Whop Trends Pro: $29/month or $228/year.
- An API key from https://whoptrends.com/dashboard/api-keys. Keys start with wt_.
- Each key allows 1,000 calls per UTC day.
Setup
1. Create an API key
Open https://whoptrends.com/dashboard/api-keys and create a key. Copy it now. The full key shows once.
2. Add the server
Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your key and run this in a terminal. --scope user makes the server available in all your projects.
Terminal
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http whop-trends https://whoptrends.com/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
3. Or share it with your team in .mcp.json
Skip this step if you ran the command. A project .mcp.json is committed, so it reads the key from WHOP_TRENDS_API_KEY on each person's machine. Claude Code asks each person to approve the server on first use.
.mcp.json
{ "mcpServers": { "whop-trends": { "type": "http", "url": "https://whoptrends.com/api/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${WHOP_TRENDS_API_KEY}" } } } }4. Add the skills (optional)
Skills tell Claude which Whop Trends tool fits a question. Run this in your project folder. Use ~/.claude/skills for all projects.
Terminal
for s in whop-market-research whop-product-analysis whop-competitive-intel; do mkdir -p .claude/skills/$s curl -fsSL https://whoptrends.com/api/skills/$s -o .claude/skills/$s/SKILL.md done
Check the connection
- Run claude mcp list. whop-trends shows ✔ Connected.
- Inside Claude Code, type /mcp to see the server and its tools.
- Claude asks before it runs a tool. Approve the first call.
First prompt
Paste this into a new chat
Use the whop-trends MCP server. List the 5 Whop products with the highest estimated monthly revenue. Then pull the daily history for the top one and tell me if it is growing.
Notes
- Failed to connect with HTTP 401 means the key is wrong or revoked, or your Pro plan ended. Fix the key or the plan. Then run claude mcp remove whop-trends -s user and add the server again.
- A 429 means too many calls: more than 25 in 10 seconds, or 1,000 in one UTC day.
- claude.ai and Claude Desktop connect through Connectors, which expect a sign-in. Whop Trends sign-in is not available yet, so this page covers Claude Code only.
