/facebook/react) using the /api/v2/libs/search endpoint with LLM-powered ranking. - Documentation Context: Query the /api/v2/context endpoint to get reranked documentation snippets and code examples for a specific library and question. - Use Case: When writing code against FastAPI and unsure of the current dependency injection syntax, query Context7 for /tiangolo/fastapi with the question "dependency injection" to receive accurate, current examples instead of relying on stale training data. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to look up the current documentation for the React useState hook using Context7.High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
First call the /api/v2/libs/search endpoint with the library name to find its library ID, then call /api/v2/context with that libraryId and a natural language query. Both endpoints accept plain curl requests with optional Bearer token authentication.
Library IDs follow the /org/project pattern, such as /facebook/react, /tiangolo/fastapi, or /numpy/numpy. Use the libs/search endpoint to find the correct ID for any indexed library.
An API key is optional but recommended. Without a key, requests are rate-limited per IP; with a free key from context7.com/dashboard set as CONTEXT7_API_KEY, you get higher rate limits based on your plan.
No results usually means the libraryId format is wrong, the library is not indexed, or the query is too narrow. Verify the ID uses the /org/project format, check coverage at context7.com, and try broader search terms.
A 429 response means you exceeded the request limit. Wait and retry, obtain a free API key for higher limits, cache responses for repeated queries, and batch related documentation lookups.
