Click `Save` to apply the changes.\n\n\n
\n\nInstall in Trae
\n\nUse the Add manually feature and fill in the JSON configuration information for that MCP server.\nFor more details, visit the [Trae documentation](https://docs.trae.ai/ide/model-context-protocol?_lang=en).\n\n#### Trae Remote Server Connection\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"url\": \"https://mcp.context7.com/mcp\"\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n#### Trae Local Server Connection\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"command\": \"npx\",\n \"args\": [\"-y\", \"@upstash/context7-mcp\", \"--api-key\", \"YOUR_API_KEY\"]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n\n
\n\nUsing Bun or Deno
\n\nUse these alternatives to run the local Context7 MCP server with other runtimes. These examples work for any client that supports launching a local MCP server via command + args.\n\n#### Bun\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"command\": \"bunx\",\n \"args\": [\"-y\", \"@upstash/context7-mcp\", \"--api-key\", \"YOUR_API_KEY\"]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n#### Deno\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"command\": \"deno\",\n \"args\": [\n \"run\",\n \"--allow-env=NO_DEPRECATION,TRACE_DEPRECATION\",\n \"--allow-net\",\n \"npm:@upstash/context7-mcp\"\n ]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n\n
\n\nUsing Docker
\n\nIf you prefer to run the MCP server in a Docker container:\n\n1. **Build the Docker Image:**\n\n First, create a `Dockerfile` in the project root (or anywhere you prefer):\n\n\n
\n\n Then, build the image using a tag (e.g., `context7-mcp`). **Make sure Docker Desktop (or the Docker daemon) is running.** Run the following command in the same directory where you saved the `Dockerfile`:\n\n ```bash\n docker build -t context7-mcp .\n ```\n\n2. **Configure Your MCP Client:**\n\n Update your MCP client's configuration to use the Docker command.\n\n _Example for a cline_mcp_settings.json:_\n\n ```json\n {\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"Сontext7\": {\n \"autoApprove\": [],\n \"disabled\": false,\n \"timeout\": 60,\n \"command\": \"docker\",\n \"args\": [\"run\", \"-i\", \"--rm\", \"context7-mcp\"],\n \"transportType\": \"stdio\"\n }\n }\n }\n ```\n\n _Note: This is an example configuration. Please refer to the specific examples for your MCP client (like Cursor, VS Code, etc.) earlier in this README to adapt the structure (e.g., `mcpServers` vs `servers`). Also, ensure the image name in `args` matches the tag used during the `docker build` command._\n\nClick to see Dockerfile content
\n\n ```Dockerfile\n FROM node:18-alpine\n\n WORKDIR /app\n\n # Install the latest version globally\n RUN npm install -g @upstash/context7-mcp\n\n # Expose default port if needed (optional, depends on MCP client interaction)\n # EXPOSE 3000\n\n # Default command to run the server\n CMD [\"context7-mcp\"]\n ```\n\n\n
\n\nInstall Using the Desktop Extension
\n\nInstall the [context7.mcpb](mcpb/context7.mcpb) file under the mcpb folder and add it to your client. For more information, please check out [MCP bundles docs](https://github.com/anthropics/mcpb#mcp-bundles-mcpb).\n\n\n
\n\nInstall in Windows
\n\nThe configuration on Windows is slightly different compared to Linux or macOS (_`Cline` is used in the example_). The same principle applies to other editors; refer to the configuration of `command` and `args`.\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"github.com/upstash/context7-mcp\": {\n \"command\": \"cmd\",\n \"args\": [\"/c\", \"npx\", \"-y\", \"@upstash/context7-mcp\", \"--api-key\", \"YOUR_API_KEY\"],\n \"disabled\": false,\n \"autoApprove\": []\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n\n

\n\n## ???? Available Tools\n\nContext7 MCP provides the following tools that LLMs can use:\n\n- `resolve-library-id`: Resolves a general library name into a Context7-compatible library ID.\n - `libraryName` (required): The name of the library to search for\n\n- `get-library-docs`: Fetches documentation for a library using a Context7-compatible library ID.\n - `context7CompatibleLibraryID` (required): Exact Context7-compatible library ID (e.g., `/mongodb/docs`, `/vercel/next.js`)\n - `topic` (optional): Focus the docs on a specific topic (e.g., \"routing\", \"hooks\")\n - `page` (optional, default 1): Page number for pagination (1-10). If the context is not sufficient, try page=2, page=3, etc. with the same topic.\n\n## ???? Tips\n\n### Add a Rule\n\nTo avoid typing `use context7` in every prompt, you can add a rule to your MCP client that automatically invokes Context7 for code-related questions. See the [recommended setup in the Installation section](#️-installation) for detailed instructions and example rules.\n\n### Use Library Id\n\nIf you already know exactly which library you want to use, add its Context7 ID to your prompt. That way, Context7 MCP server can skip the library-matching step and directly continue with retrieving docs.\n\n```txt\nImplement basic authentication with Supabase. use library /supabase/supabase for API and docs.\n```\n\nThe slash syntax tells the MCP tool exactly which library to load docs for.\n\n### HTTPS Proxy\n\nIf you are behind an HTTP proxy, Context7 uses the standard `https_proxy` / `HTTPS_PROXY` environment variables.\n\n## ???? Development\n\nClone the project and install dependencies:\n\n```bash\nbun i\n```\n\nBuild:\n\n```bash\nbun run build\n```\n\nRun the server:\n\n```bash\nbun run dist/index.js\n```\n\n### CLI Arguments\n\n`context7-mcp` accepts the following CLI flags:\n\n- `--transport Install in Emdash
\n\n[Emdash](https://github.com/generalaction/emdash) is an orchestration layer for running multiple coding agents in parallel. Provider-agnostic, worktree-isolated, and local-first. Emdash supports Context7 MCP to enable Context7 for your agents.\n\n**What Emdash provides:**\n\n- Global toggle: Settings → MCP → \"Enable Context7 MCP\"\n- Per-workspace enable: The Context7 button in the ProviderBar (off by default). First click enables it for that workspace. Clicking again disables it.\n- ProviderBar: The Context7 button shows status, a short explanation, and a link to docs\n\n**What you still need to do:**\nConfigure your coding agent (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) to connect to Context7 MCP. Emdash does not modify your agent's config. See the respective MCP configuration sections above for your agent (e.g., OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, Cursor).\n\nSee the [Emdash repository](https://github.com/generalaction/emdash) for more information.\n\n\n
\n\n### OAuth Authentication\n\nContext7 MCP server supports OAuth 2.0 authentication for MCP clients that implement the [MCP OAuth specification](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-03-26/basic/authorization).\n\nTo use OAuth, change the endpoint from `/mcp` to `/mcp/oauth` in your client configuration:\n\n```diff\n- \"url\": \"https://mcp.context7.com/mcp\"\n+ \"url\": \"https://mcp.context7.com/mcp/oauth\"\n```\n\n> **Note:** OAuth is not supported with stdio transport. For local MCP connections, use API key authentication instead.\n\nLocal Configuration Example
\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"command\": \"npx\",\n \"args\": [\"tsx\", \"/path/to/folder/context7/src/index.ts\", \"--api-key\", \"YOUR_API_KEY\"]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n\n
\n\n## ???? Troubleshooting\n\nTesting with MCP Inspector
\n\n```bash\nnpx -y @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx @upstash/context7-mcp\n```\n\n\n
\n\nModule Not Found Errors
\n\nIf you encounter `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND`, try using `bunx` instead of `npx`:\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"command\": \"bunx\",\n \"args\": [\"-y\", \"@upstash/context7-mcp\"]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\nThis often resolves module resolution issues in environments where `npx` doesn't properly install or resolve packages.\n\n\n
\n\nESM Resolution Issues
\n\nFor errors like `Error: Cannot find module 'uriTemplate.js'`, try the `--experimental-vm-modules` flag:\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"command\": \"npx\",\n \"args\": [\"-y\", \"--node-options=--experimental-vm-modules\", \"@upstash/context7-mcp@1.0.6\"]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n\n
\n\nTLS/Certificate Issues
\n\nUse the `--experimental-fetch` flag to bypass TLS-related problems:\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"context7\": {\n \"command\": \"npx\",\n \"args\": [\"-y\", \"--node-options=--experimental-fetch\", \"@upstash/context7-mcp\"]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n\n
