How does this help prevent AI hallucinations?

By fetching live documentation, Claude relies on factual, current data from the library's source rather than potentially outdated internal training data.

Can I use it for specific npm packages?

Yes, it can resolve library IDs for most popular npm packages and frameworks to fetch their specific documentation and examples.

Does this skill require a Context7 account?

No, Context7 works without an API key for basic usage with standard rate limits, though you can configure a CONTEXT7_API_KEY for higher limits.

Does it work automatically or do I need to trigger it?

The skill is designed to trigger proactively. When you mention a library name or ask for code generation, Claude will automatically fetch the relevant docs.

What kind of information does it retrieve?

It retrieves API references, setup instructions, best practices, and code snippets specific to the library version you are using.

学習とドキュメンテーション

Fetches real-time documentation and current code examples for any library or framework to ensure accurate, up-to-date code generation.

概要

This skill integrates Context7 into Claude Code to provide instant access to the latest documentation for thousands of libraries and frameworks. By proactively fetching technical details and usage patterns before generating code, it eliminates the risk of using deprecated APIs or outdated patterns often found in static training data. It is particularly useful for setting up complex frameworks, navigating new npm packages, or ensuring that implementation details align with the most recent version of a tool without leaving the terminal.
