Context7
Library documentation lookup via Context7/Upstash. Fast, cached, structured.
When to Use
- Quick library documentation lookups
- Finding up-to-date API docs for any npm/pypi package
- Getting structured docs with code examples
- When you need docs but don't know the exact API
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|
context7_resolve-library-id | Resolve a library name to a Context7 library ID |
context7_query-docs | Query documentation for a resolved library |
Usage Patterns
Step 1: Resolve Library
context7_resolve-library-id query="effect" libraryName="effect"
Step 2: Query Docs
context7_query-docs libraryId="<id from step 1>" query="Schema.Struct"
Best Practices
- Resolve first — Always get the library ID before querying
- Both params required —
query and libraryName for resolve; libraryId and query for docs
- Use specific queries — "Schema.Struct fields" > "schemas"
