# Run the Viral Spotter Agent

## Action

Trigger the **Viral Spotter** skill in [[entity-claude-ai|Claude]] and link it to your Notion Creator List.

## Procedure

1. Ensure your **Creator List** in [[entity-notion]] is populated (via the Creator Finder skill — Step 1 of [[framework-ccc-content-pipeline]])
2. Trigger the **Viral Spotter** skill ([[concept-ai-agent-skills]]) in Claude desktop
3. Provide the link to your Creator List database as input
4. Let the agent run autonomously

## What the Agent Does

For each creator in the list, the agent:

- Visits the profile (via [[concept-browser-automation]])
- Scrapes view counts across recent reels
- Calculates a baseline average view count, **excluding the top 10%** to prevent outlier skew
- Flags any reel performing **5x or more** above that baseline — see [[concept-viral-outlier-spotting]]
- Writes flagged reels to the **Content Ideas** database in Notion

## Expected Outcome

A populated database of **proven, viral outlier content ideas** ready for transcription ([[concept-audio-transcription-workaround]]) and rewriting (Step 4 of the pipeline).

## Operational Notes

- Credit usage scales with list size — monitor consumption ([[question-claude-credit-consumption]])
- Watch for rate limiting from Instagram ([[question-instagram-scraping-limits]])
