looking-up-docs

Find exact, version-correct library/API/framework docs through one lookup workflow. Use when the user says "look up docs", "how to use", "API for", "syntax for", "examples of", "show me the docs", mentions "ctx7"/"Context7", passes a `/org/project` library ID, or needs API signatures, config keys, syntax, examples, or versioned docs. NOT for comparisons, current-state or release-behavior questions, best-practice surveys, or recent ecosystem news — use researching-web.

# Documentation Lookup Answer API, syntax, and config questions from version-correct sources. When a lookup tool is available, do not answer syntax from memory. Never put secrets, credentials, personal data, private payloads, or proprietary code into an external query. Strip them and still look up the public docs; if the question cannot be asked without them, answer from local context and say so. ## Lookup chain Stop at the first tier that grounds the answer. - Tier 0, version: find the exact package and version from manifests, lockfiles, or tool output. If there is none, say `version unknown` and use the latest stable docs. Never invent a version. - Tier 1, Context7: follow [references/context7-cli.md](references/context7-cli.md). Treat Tier 1 as exhausted when Context7 is unavailable, rate-limited, returns the wrong version, or finds nothing after one rephrase and one alternate library name. - Tier 2, official docs and registries: use [references/official-sources.md](references/official-sources.md). Use web search only to discover primary sources (the researching-web skill covers platform web tools), then cite the primary URL. - Tier 3, GitHub: releases, tags, and source at the matching tag, when docs are missing, incomplete, or version-mismatched. Issues, PR comments, blogs, and generated summaries are clues, not authority. - Tier 4, gap report: state the version needed versus found, what you tried, and the safest next step. Do not fabricate syntax. If the request turns into a comparison, current-state, or release-behavior question, hand it to researching-web and offer a docs lookup for the chosen library afterwards. ## Response Give the answer, not a transcript of the lookup, unless the user asks for the process. Include: 1. Library and version, or `version unknown`. 2. The tier that produced the answer and any fallback used. 3. Syntax or example grounded in the source. 4. A source URL, Context7 library ID, or GitHub tag and path for each claim.
