What it does

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.

Install

With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:

npx skills add upstash/context7 --skill context7-cli

Or copy the skill folder into Claude Code's skills directory by hand (~/.claude/skills for every project, or .claude/skills inside one):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/upstash/context7
cp -r context7/skills/context7-cli ~/.claude/skills/context7-cli
