Setup Context7 Mcp

This automates the setup of Context7's MCP server, which loads documentation for whatever tech stack you're working with. It walks you through three configuration options (project-shared, project-local, or global), checks if Context7 is already installed, and then updates your CLAUDE.md file with relevant doc IDs based on your project structure. The smart bit is that it parses your codebase to figure out what frameworks you're using, or asks you directly if the project is empty. Saves you from manually hunting down the right documentation IDs and keeps your context configuration in sync with your actual dependencies. Worth using if you regularly spin up projects with different tech stacks.

Guide for setup Context7 MCP server

1. Determine setup context

Ask the user where they want to store the configuration:

Options:

Project level (shared via git) - Configuration tracked in version control, shared with team
- CLAUDE.md updates go to: ./CLAUDE.md
Project level (personal preferences) - Configuration stays local, not tracked in git
- CLAUDE.md updates go to: ./CLAUDE.local.md
- Verify these files are listed in .gitignore, add them if not
User level (global) - Configuration applies to all projects for this user
- CLAUDE.md updates go to: ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md
