BuzzSumo platform help — content intelligence, trending topic discovery, content performance research, journalist database (700K+), influencer identification, monitoring alerts, and Search/Account/Backlinks REST APIs. Use when BuzzSumo search results are returning irrelevant content and you need better query filters, trending feeds aren't showing topics relevant to your niche, journalist database isn't surfacing the right reporters for your pitch, API call limits are exhausting too quickly on your plan, you need to pull BuzzSumo data into your dashboard or CRM via the API, content analysis isn't showing accurate share counts, or you're unsure whether BuzzSumo is worth $199/mo vs cheaper alternatives. Do NOT use for social listening strategy across tools (use /sales-social-listening) or media relations strategy (use /sales-media-relations).

Installing & verifying

It declares no allowed-tools restriction, so it inherits your session’s existing tool access rather than narrowing it. To confirm it loaded, ask Claude to list its available skills — sales-buzzsumo should appear by name.
