Pasting the following configuration into your Cursor `~/.cursor/mcp.json` file is the recommended approach. You may also install in a specific project by creating `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project folder. See [Cursor MCP docs](https://docs.cursor.com/context/model-context-protocol) for more info.
Run this command. See [Claude Code MCP docs](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/claude-code/tutorials#set-up-model-context-protocol-mcp) for more info.

It can be installed via [Zed Extensions](https://zed.dev/extensions?query=Context7) or you can add this to your Zed `settings.json`. See [Zed Context Server docs](https://zed.dev/docs/assistant/context-servers) for more info.
Once the MCP server is added, you can start using Context7's up-to-date code documentation features directly within Augment Code.
---
### **B. Manual Configuration**
1. Press Cmd/Ctrl Shift P or go to the hamburger menu in the Augment panel
2. Select Edit Settings
3. Under Advanced, click Edit in settings.json
4. Add the server configuration to the `mcpServers` array in the `augment.advanced` object
"augment.advanced": {
"mcpServers": [
{
"name": "context7",
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@upstash/context7-mcp"]
}
]
}
Once the MCP server is added, restart your editor. If you receive any errors, check the syntax to make sure closing brackets or commas are not missing.

<summary><b>Install in Roo Code</b></summary>
Add this to your Roo Code MCP configuration file. See [Roo Code MCP docs](https://docs.roocode.com/features/mcp/using-mcp-in-roo) for more info.
Open Claude Desktop and navigate to Settings > Connectors > Add Custom Connector. Enter the name as `Context7` and the remote MCP server URL as `https://mcp.context7.com/mcp`.
#### Local Server Connection
Open Claude Desktop developer settings and edit your `claude_desktop_config.json` file to add the following configuration. See [Claude Desktop MCP docs](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user) for more info.
6. The same way context7 could be added for JetBrains Junie in `Settings` -> `Tools` -> `Junie` -> `MCP Settings`

<summary><b>Install in Trae</b></summary>
Use the Add manually feature and fill in the JSON configuration information for that MCP server.
For more details, visit the [Trae documentation](https://docs.trae.ai/ide/model-context-protocol?_lang=en).
#### Trae Remote Server Connection

<summary><b>Using Bun or Deno</b></summary>
Use 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.
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`:
_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._
The 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`.
Add this to your Amazon Q Developer CLI configuration file. See [Amazon Q Developer CLI docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazonq/latest/qdeveloper-ug/command-line-mcp-configuration.html) for more details.
<summary><b>Install in Copilot Coding Agent</b></summary>
## Using Context7 with Copilot Coding Agent
Add the following configuration to the `mcp` section of your Copilot Coding Agent configuration file Repository->Settings->Copilot->Coding agent->MCP configuration:
For more information, see the [official GitHub documentation](https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/copilot/how-tos/agents/copilot-coding-agent/extending-copilot-coding-agent-with-mcp).

You can configure Context7 MCP in Visual Studio 2022 by following the [Visual Studio MCP Servers documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/ide/mcp-servers?view=vs-2022).
Add this to your Visual Studio MCP config file (see the [Visual Studio docs](https://learn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/ide/mcp-servers?view=vs-2022) for details):
For more information and troubleshooting, refer to the [Visual Studio MCP Servers documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/ide/mcp-servers?view=vs-2022).
Once saved, enter in the chat `get-library-docs` followed by your Context7 documentation ID (e.g., `get-library-docs /nuxt/ui`). More information is available on [BoltAI's Documentation site](https://docs.boltai.com/docs/plugins/mcp-servers). For BoltAI on iOS, [see this guide](https://docs.boltai.com/docs/boltai-mobile/mcp-servers).

> If you don’t want to add `use context7` to every prompt, you can define a simple rule in your `.windsurfrules` file in Windsurf or from `Cursor Settings > Rules` section in Cursor (or the equivalent in your MCP client) to auto-invoke Context7 on any code question:
> 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.
-`--transport <stdio|http>`– Transport to use (`stdio` by default). Note that HTTP transport automatically provides both HTTP and SSE endpoints.
-`--port <number>`– Port to listen on when using `http` transport (default `3000`).
-`--api-key <key>`– API key for authentication. You can get your API key by creating an account at [context7.com/console](https://context7.com/console).
