Context7 is Upstash's MCP server for giving a coding agent current library documentation instead of relying on what the model learned in training.

What it does

Context7 is Upstash's MCP server for giving a coding agent current library documentation instead of relying on what the model learned in training. It offers two tools: one maps a library name to a Context7 library ID, the other asks that library's indexed docs a focused question and returns matching text and code samples, with an optional language hint to rank examples. Most people connect to the hosted endpoint at mcp.context7.com/mcp, sending an API key as a bearer header; the same server can also run locally from the @upstash/context7-mcp npm package. A free key is optional and raises rate limits. The crawling and parsing backend is closed source.

Capabilities

  • Resolve a library or framework name to a Context7 library ID
  • Query a library's current documentation and code examples
  • Match documentation to a library version named in the prompt
  • Rank code examples by the programming language in use
