SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? AI training data becomes outdated quickly, so answers about libraries, frameworks, and APIs are often stale or wrong. This Skill retrieves live, up-to-date documentation through the Context7 MCP server instead of relying on memorized knowledge. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Library Resolution: Converts a library name like Next.js, Prisma, or Supabase into a Context7-compatible library ID using the resolve-library-id tool. - Live Documentation Queries: Fetches current docs and code snippets with the query-docs tool, including version-specific results when available. - Use Case: When a user asks "How do I configure Next.js middleware?", the Skill resolves the official Next.js library ID, queries the docs, and returns an accurate middleware.ts example from current documentation. ## Quick Start Ask how to set up middleware in Next.js and have the answer fetched from the latest official documentation via Context7.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get up-to-date library documentation in Claude Code?

Use the Context7 MCP tools resolve-library-id and query-docs. First resolve the library name to a Context7 ID like /vercel/next.js, then query the docs with your specific question to receive current documentation and code snippets.

How does Context7 resolve-library-id work?

resolve-library-id takes a library name and the user's query, then returns Context7-compatible library IDs in /org/project format. Results are ranked by name match, benchmark score, and source reputation so you can pick the official package.

Can I query documentation for a specific framework version?

Yes. When the user mentions a version like React 19 or Next.js 15, prefer a version-specific library ID such as /org/project/v1.2.0 from the resolution results before calling query-docs.

What is the limit on Context7 documentation queries?

The Skill limits resolve-library-id and query-docs calls to three per question. If the answer remains unclear after three calls, state the uncertainty and use the best available information rather than guessing.

Is it safe to send my question to Context7?

Questions may contain sensitive data, so API keys, passwords, and tokens must be redacted before calling resolve-library-id or query-docs. Treat every user query as potentially containing secrets before sending it to the MCP server.
