SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires fastmcp.

What problem does it solve?

Context7 development often requires discovering library IDs and accessing up-to-date documentation for libraries. This skill automates those tasks by exposing two tools: resolve-library-id and query-docs.

Core Features & Use Cases

Resolve-library-id: find Context7-compatible library IDs (format: /org/project) from a library name.
Query-docs: retrieve documentation and code examples for a specific library using up-to-date Context7 data.
Use Case: quickly locate a library by name, obtain its ID, and fetch relevant usage docs to integrate into your codebase.

Quick Start

Call resolve_library_id with a library name to obtain a Context7 library ID, then use query_docs to fetch matching libraries and their documentation.

FAQPage Schema

How do I fetch up-to-date documentation for an MCP library programmatically?▼

To fetch up-to-date documentation for an MCP library, use the query-docs tool with a resolved Context7 library ID to retrieve structured descriptions and code examples for integration.

What's the best way to resolve a Context7 library ID from a library name?▼

Resolving a Context7 library ID from a name requires calling the resolve-library-id tool, which returns the matching library identifier in the /org/project format for documentation queries.

Do I need external authentication to retrieve Context7 docs and code examples?▼

No external authentication is needed to retrieve Context7 docs and code examples; the tool relies on the provided Context7 API to return structured results without requiring external API keys.

Does the Context7 documentation tool support async tool-calling workflows?▼

Yes, the Context7 documentation tool supports async tool-calling workflows through its fastmcp dependency, enabling developers to programmatically discover libraries and fetch docs asynchronously.

Can I use Context7 to discover Python library versions and retrieve integration code?▼

Yes, you can use Context7 to discover Python library versions and retrieve integration code by resolving the library ID first, then querying the docs for up-to-date examples and descriptions.

What are the limitations of using Context7 for resolving library IDs?▼

A key limitation of using Context7 for resolving library IDs is its two-step dependency: you must successfully resolve the ID via resolve-library-id before you can fetch any documentation using query-docs.
