Context7 MCP connector

The Context7 connector brings current documentation for software libraries into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and the Elaichi Agent, so anyone can ask how a library works and get an answer drawn from its latest docs, with every lookup logged.

  • How it connects. Connects over OAuth. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Context7 to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

1

In Elaichi

Connect Context7 once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Context7.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Approve it in Context7. Context7's own window opens. Whoever approves it decides what this connection can reach.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

Use cases

What teams do with Context7 through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Engineering

    Check the current way to call a library

    Ask how a library handles something today and get an answer from its latest docs instead of a model's memory of an older version. Paste the answer straight into the pull request.

  • Developer Relations

    Write a tutorial against the real docs

    Pull the current docs for a library before drafting a guide or sample, so the steps match what the library actually does right now.

  • Support

    Answer a customer question about a library

    When a ticket asks why a library behaves a certain way, look up the relevant docs and reply with the current guidance rather than guessing.

  • Product

    Confirm what a library can do before committing

    Before promising a feature that depends on a third party library, check its docs to see whether the capability exists and how it is meant to be used.

  • QA

    Read the docs behind a failing test

    When a test breaks after a library upgrade, look up what changed in that library's docs and point the fix at the right place.

  • Solutions Engineering

    Prepare a proof of concept with fewer surprises

    Resolve the exact library a prospect uses and read its docs ahead of a demo, so the setup works the first time in front of them.

Try asking

  • “Find the current docs for React Router loaders and show an example.”
  • “How do I set up authentication in Next.js 15?”
  • “Look up the Stripe Node library and explain webhook signing.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Context7 to Claude?

Connect Context7 inside Elaichi first, which takes an OAuth sign-in and nothing else, with no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Claude can then read current library docs from Context7 on your behalf.

Does Context7 work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Context7 is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Context7 once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Context7 data?

With Context7 connected, an agent can find the right library when you name it and read its current documentation to answer your question, whether that is how to set up authentication in a framework or what a method expects. Short, specific asks such as naming the library and the feature work better than long paragraphs. The connector reads docs; it does not change anything in Context7.

Does connecting Context7 give the AI everything?

No. An agent working through Context7 only has the access of the person who signed in, and Elaichi can narrow that access further with roles and restrictions. Elaichi never widens what a person could already do in Context7.

Can my team share one Context7 connection?

Yes. One person connects Context7 in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles a credential. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so every Context7 lookup in the audit log is tied to the person who made it.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Context7?

The Context7 connector only reads library docs, so there is nothing for an agent to delete or change. Even so, Elaichi applies restrictions per action, and a restricted action is never shown to the AI client at all, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to a Context7 connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Context7 through every client at once. A Context7 connection they shared keeps working for everyone else on the team. Disconnecting Context7 once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client together.

Does the Context7 MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Context7 is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Context7?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Context7. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Context7 call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Context7?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Context7: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
