What is the Context7 MCP Server?
Connect your Context7 account to any AI agent and provide it with the most up-to-date, version-specific technical documentation through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Library Discovery — Resolve fuzzy framework names (e.g., 'react', 'tailwind') into deterministic paths and specific versions needed for accurate documentation
- Live Docs Querying — Analyze specific localized variables and retrieve raw Markdown documentation chunks to ground your agent in technical truths
- Code Example Extraction — Pull valid, version-specific code examples for any component or function directly into your development flow
- RAG for Developers — Use Context7 as a documentation-specialized RAG layer to ensure your agent never hallucinates outdated API signatures
- Up-to-date Knowledge — Access documentation that is synchronized with the latest releases, bypassing the training cutoff limits of standard LLMs
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Context7 API Key (found in your Context7/Upstash Dashboard)
- Start querying technical documentation from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Software Developers — pull specific API documentation and code snippets without leaving the IDE or searching manually
- AI Engineers — ground coding agents in real-time technical documentation to improve code generation accuracy
- Technical Writers — verify version-specific API signatures and cross-reference documentation blocks quickly
- Rapid Prototypers — instantly retrieve boilerplates and component examples for new frameworks and libraries
Built-in capabilities (2)
Query documentation and code examples for a specific library ID (from resolve_library tool) about a certain topic
g. react) into deterministic paths (e.g. /facebook/react/18.2.0) needed for deep documentation fetching. Find the correct exact library ID and latest version matching a framework or library search query
Why Windsurf?
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Context7 tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 2 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent find the latest documentation for a specific Tailwind CSS version?
Yes. First, use the 'resolve_library' tool with 'tailwindcss'. It will return the deterministic ID and version (e.g., 'tailwindcss/3.4.1'). Then, use 'query_docs' to pull the exact Markdown blocks for your specific topic.
Does Context7 provide code examples for the libraries I search for?
Absolutely. When you query documentation via the 'query_docs' tool, the agent retrieves not only textual descriptions but also version-specific code examples found in the original library documentation to ensure implementation accuracy.
How does this help prevent AI hallucinations in coding tasks?
Standard LLMs have a training data cutoff. Context7 pulls live, version-specific documentation chunks that act as ground-truth context. By grounding your agent in this real-time data, it avoids hallucinating outdated or non-existent API methods.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
