context7

A connection to Context7, a hosted service that looks up current, version-specific software documentation and code examples from source repositories. It works through an MCP server, which lets Claude Code request information from another service.

In plain words
What is it for?
Look up current documentation and code examples, with optional higher rate limits when a Context7 API key is set.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of using outdated documentation or examples for a library or framework.

Grade A, and why

context7 scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
