# CurateX

**A one-stop MCP server for AI-powered content creation** from trending research to final video, fully automated.

## 🎯 Vision

In the age of AI assistants, **context is everything**. This MCP server acts as an intelligent context engine that automatically fetches, analyzes, and injects real-time trending data from multiple sources (Reddit, YouTube, News) to power complete content creation workflows.

**The Challenge**: Content creators need trending insights, engaging scripts, voice cloning, and video generation. Existing solutions require complex tool orchestration.

**The Solution**: A unified MCP server with automatic context injection, composite workflows, and AI-powered intelligence that handles everything from idea research to final video in single tool calls.

---

## ✨ What Makes This Unique

### 1. **Automatic Context Injection**
Unlike typical MCP servers that require explicit tool calls, this server **automatically analyzes queries and injects context**:

- **MCP Prompts**: Server fetches context automatically when agent uses prompts
- **MCP Resources**: Pre-fetched, auto-maintained data accessible without tool calls  
- **Composite Tools**: Single tools that orchestrate entire workflows internally

**Example**: Agent asks "What's trending about AI?" → Uses `trending_analysis` prompt → Server auto-fetches Reddit + YouTube + News → Returns enriched context → No tool chaining needed!

### 2. **Multi-Source Intelligence**
Combines three complementary data sources for comprehensive insights:

- **Reddit**: Community discussions, sentiment, engagement
- **YouTube**: Video content, creator perspectives, visual trends
- **Google News**: Official coverage, credibility, timeliness

Each source provides unique context that others miss. Cross-source correlation reveals patterns invisible to single-source analysis.

### 3. **AI-Powered Context Processing**
Raw data is noisy. This server provides **intelligent context**:

- **Intelligent Ranking**: Scores items by relevance (40%), engagement (30%), recency (20%), credibility (10%)
- **Trend Detection**: Identifies emerging trends, gaining/losing traction, unique angles
- **Sentiment Analysis**: Understands tone across all sources
- **Theme Extraction**: Identifies key topics and keywords
- **Cross-Source Correlation**: Finds connections between Reddit threads, YouTube videos, and news articles
- **AI Summarization**: Uses OpenRouter to generate actionable insights (75-80% token reduction)

### 4. **Complete Content Pipeline**
End-to-end workflow in single tool calls:

```
Trending Research → Script Generation → Voice Cloning → Audio Generation → Video Creation
```

No tool chaining. No orchestration complexity. One call does everything.
