Context7 brings up-to-date, version-specific documentation and code examples directly into your AI coding assistant. That means no more outdated code or hallucinated APIs.
|
||
|
||
## ❌ Without Context7
|
||
|
||
LLMs rely on outdated or generic information about the libraries you use:
|
||
|
||
- ❌ Code examples based on 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 grounds your LLM with up-to-date documentation, ensuring that it always writes high quality code.
|
||
|
||
- 1️⃣ Write your prompt naturally
|
||
- 2️⃣ Add `use context7` to your prompt
|
||
- 3️⃣ Get working code with current APIs
|
||
|
||
No tab-switching, no hallucinated APIs that don't exist, no outdated code generation.
