SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the discovery, retrieval, and caching of library documentation from Context7 MCP, reducing manual lookup and context-switching for developers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-detects libraries from the project tech context or explicit input and resolves Context7 IDs.
  • Fetches and caches library docs (with code examples and API references) to enable quick reference during development.
  • Stores documentation in standardized Markdown with context7 metadata for downstream tooling and planning.

Quick Start

Run the skill with explicit libraries, for example /jaan-to:dev-docs-fetch fastapi to fetch and cache its Context7 documentation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fetch and cache library documentation automatically?▼

Fetch and cache library documentation by resolving Context7 IDs from tech context. The skill retrieves API references and code examples, storing them in standardized Markdown files with a 7-day TTL cache for quick access and downstream planning.

What is Context7 MCP and how does it help with developer onboarding?▼

Context7 MCP is a protocol used to retrieve library documentation. This skill automates discovery and resolution of Context7 IDs, reducing manual lookup and context-switching to accelerate developer onboarding with rich API references.

Can I auto-detect target libraries from my project tech context?▼

Yes, you can auto-detect target libraries from your project tech context. The skill resolves Context7 IDs automatically without explicit input, handling retrieval and storage of rich references for downstream tooling.

How do I cache Context7 markdown files for downstream planning?▼

Cache Context7 markdown files by running the skill with a target library. It enforces a 7-day TTL cache, preserves created and updated metadata, and writes standardized context7 markdown files for downstream planning and tooling integration.

What are the limitations of the 7-day TTL cache for library documentation?▼

The 7-day TTL cache limits documentation freshness, requiring re-fetching after expiration to get the latest API references. The skill preserves created and updated metadata but does not support real-time synchronization with Context7 MCP.
