SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? AI coding assistants often rely on outdated training data when answering questions about libraries and frameworks, leading to deprecated APIs and incorrect code. This Skill retrieves current documentation on demand so answers reflect the latest versions. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Automatic Documentation Retrieval: Fetches the latest docs for libraries like React, Next.js, and Prisma through the Context7 API. - Auto-Trigger Integration: Activates naturally during Claude Code conversations when library questions arise. - Optional API Key Configuration: Supports environment-variable API keys for higher rate limits. - Use Case: While building a Next.js feature, ask about a specific API and receive guidance grounded in the current official documentation rather than stale training data. ## Quick Start Install with npx skills add -g BenedictKing/context7-auto-research, then ask Claude Code a question about any library such as React or Prisma to get up-to-date documentation.
