# Context7 MCP Server for Zed This extension integrates [Context7](https://context7.com/) as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Zed's Assistant, providing up-to-date documentation for any prompt. ## What is Context7? Context7 pulls up-to-date, version-specific documentation and code examples straight from the source and places them directly into your prompt context. ### ❌ Without Context7 LLMs rely on outdated or generic information about the libraries you use. You get: - ❌ Code examples are outdated and based on year-old training data - ❌ Hallucinated APIs that don't even exist - ❌ Generic answers for old package versions ### ✅ With Context7 Context7 fetches 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 question in Zed Assistant: ``` How do I use the new Next.js `after` function? use context7 ``` ``` How do I invalidate a query in React Query? use context7 ``` ``` How do I protect a route with NextAuth? use context7 ``` ## How It Works - 1️⃣ Ask your question 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the LLM to `use context7` - 3️⃣ Get working code answers No tab-switching, no hallucinated APIs that don't exist, no outdated code generations. ## Installation This extension can be installed from the Zed extension. ## Agent Mode Configuration If you're using Zed's agent mode, you need to enable this context server for your assistant: 1. Open Zed's assistant settings 2. Enable the Context7 MCP server. If you see that the status of the tool is a red dot, make sure you toggle it so that becomes green. 3.
