name	context7-cli
description	Use the ctx7 CLI to fetch library documentation, manage AI coding skills, and configure Context7 MCP. Activate when the user mentions "ctx7" or "context7", needs current docs for any library, wants to install/search/generate skills, or needs to set up Context7 for their AI coding agent.

ctx7 CLI

The Context7 CLI does three things: fetches up-to-date library documentation, manages AI coding skills, and sets up Context7 MCP for your editor.

Make sure the CLI is up to date before running commands:

npm install -g ctx7@latest

Or run directly without installing:

npx ctx7@latest <command>

What this skill covers

• Documentation — Fetch current docs for any library. Use when writing code, verifying API signatures, or when training data may be outdated.
• Skills management — Install, search, suggest, list, remove, and generate AI coding skills.
• Setup — Configure Context7 MCP for Claude Code / Cursor / OpenCode.
