name	context-hub
description	Fetch curated API documentation using the chub CLI before writing code. Use when calling external APIs (OpenAI, Stripe, Anthropic, etc.) to get accurate docs instead of hallucinating. Install chub via: npm install -g chub

Context Hub — API Documentation via chub

chub is installed and ready: which chub (install via npm install -g chub)

When to Use

• Before writing code that calls any external API
• When unsure about exact method signatures, params, or response shapes
• After an API call fails with unexpected results
• When a previous attempt may have hallucinated API details

Commands

chub search                          # list all available docs
chub search "stripe payments"        # find relevant docs
chub get openai/chat --lang py       # fetch Python docs
chub get openai/chat --lang js       # fetch JS docs
chub get stripe/api                  # fetch Stripe API docs
chub get anthropic/messages          # Anthropic Messages API
chub annotate stripe/api "Needs raw body for webhook verification"  # save gotcha
chub annotate <id> --clear           # remove annotation
chub annotate --list                 # see all your annotations
chub feedback <id> up                # upvote good docs
chub feedback <id> down              # flag bad docs

Workflow

1. chub search "<api-name>" — find the right doc ID
2. chub get <id> --lang <py|js> — fetch the doc
3. Read doc, write correct code
4. If you find a gap: chub annotate <id> "<note>" — persists for next session

Gotchas

• Run chub search with no args first to see everything available — coverage grows over time
• Language flag matters: --lang py and --lang js return different variants
• Annotations persist locally across sessions — add them whenever you find gotchas
• Not all APIs are in the hub yet — fall back to web_fetch for missing ones
