• country: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (US, GB, TR, JP, etc.). Omit for global.

Typical flow

1. Ask the user for a country (or default to US).
2. Call GET /trends?country=<code>.
3. Present the trends as a numbered list with name, volume, and short context.
4. If the user wants to post about a trend, pass the text to the write-tweets or post-tweets skill.
