context7

Query up-to-date library documentation and code examples using Context7 MCP. Use when you need current, version-specific documentation for npm packages, Python libraries, or other programming languages.

skill-install — Terminal

Install via CLI (Recommended)

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/jolestar/uxc-context7
Or

Context7 Skill

Use this skill to query library documentation and code examples.

Prerequisites

  • uxc skill is installed (see uxc skill for installation)
  • Network access to https://mcp.context7.com/mcp

Core Workflow

  1. Use fixed link command by default:

    • command -v context7-mcp-cli
    • If missing, create it: uxc link context7-mcp-cli mcp.context7.com/mcp
    • context7-mcp-cli -h
    • If command conflict is detected and cannot be safely reused, stop and ask skill maintainers to pick a different fixed command name.
  2. Resolve a library name to get library ID:

    • context7-mcp-cli resolve-library-id libraryName=react query='useState hook'
  3. Query documentation:

    • context7-mcp-cli query-docs libraryId=/reactjs/react.dev query='how to use useState'

Available Tools

  • resolve-library-id: Resolve a package/library name to Context7 library ID
  • query-docs: Query documentation and code examples for a specific library

Usage Examples

Find React documentation

# First resolve the library
context7-mcp-cli resolve-library-id libraryName=react query='React useState hook'

Query specific documentation

context7-mcp-cli query-docs '{"libraryId":"/reactjs/react.dev","query":"how to use useEffect"}'

Query Node.js documentation

context7-mcp-cli resolve-library-id libraryName=node query='file system'

Notes

  • Requires library name first, then use the returned libraryId for queries
  • Context7 provides version-specific, up-to-date documentation
  • Supports npm packages, Python libraries, and more
  • context7-mcp-cli <operation> ... is equivalent to uxc mcp.context7.com/mcp <operation> ....
  • If link setup is temporarily unavailable, use direct uxc mcp.context7.com/mcp ... calls as fallback.
