You get: - ❌ Code examples are outdated and based on year-old training data - ❌ Hallucinated APIs that don't even exist - ❌ Generic answers for old package versions ## ✅ With Context7 Context7 MCP pulls up-to-date, version-specific documentation and code examples straight from the source — and places them directly into your prompt. Add use context7 to your prompt in Cursor: txt Create a Next.js middleware that checks for a valid JWT in cookies and redirects unauthenticated users to `/login`. use context7 txt Configure a Cloudflare Worker script to cache JSON API responses for five minutes. use context7 Context7 fetches up-to-date code examples and documentation right into your LLM's context. - 1️⃣ Write your prompt naturally - 2️⃣ Tell the LLM to use context7 - 3️⃣ Get working code answers No tab-switching, no hallucinated APIs that don't exist, no outdated code generation. ## 🔨 Available Tools Context7 MCP provides the following tools that LLMs can use: - resolve-library-id: Resolves a general library name into a Context7-compatible library ID. - libraryName (required): The name of the library to search for - get-library-docs: Fetches documentation for a library using a Context7-compatible library ID. - context7CompatibleLibraryID (required): Exact Context7-compatible library ID (e.g., /mongodb/docs, /vercel/next.js) - topic (optional): Focus the docs on a specific topic (e.g., "routing", "hooks") - tokens (optional, default 5000): Max number of tokens to return. Values less than 1000 are automatically increased to 1000. ## 🛟 Tips ### Add a Rule > If you don't want to add use context7 to every prompt, you can define a simple rule in your MCP client's rule section: > > - For Windsurf, in .windsurfrules file > - For Cursor, from Cursor Settings > Rules section > - For Claude Code, in CLAUDE.md file > > Or the equivalent in your MCP client to auto-invoke Context7 on any code question. > > Example Rule: > > toml > Always use context7 when I need code generation, setup or configuration steps, or > library/API documentation. This means you should automatically use the Context7 MCP > tools to resolve library id and get library docs without me having to explicitly ask. > > > From then on, you'll get Context7's docs in any related conversation without typing anything extra. You can alter the rule to match your use cases. ### Use Library Id > If 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. > > txt > Implement basic authentication with Supabase. use library /supabase/supabase for API and docs. > > > The slash syntax tells the MCP tool exactly which library to load docs for. ## References To learn more about Apify and Actors, take a look at the following resources: - Apify SDK for JavaScript documentation - Apify SDK for Python documentation - Apify Platform documentation - Apify MCP Server - Webinar: Building and Monetizing MCP Servers on Apify - Join our developer community on Discord
