Setup: Context7 in Claude

Claude adds MCP servers via custom connectors in Settings. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Create a free gate gateway and connect Context7 to it from the verified directory (one click).
  2. Open claude.ai → Settings → Connectors and click 'Add custom connector'.
  3. Name it 'gate' and paste your gateway URL, then approve the authorization.
  4. Ask Claude something Context7 can answer — the call runs through your gateway, with your rules applied and logged.

What to ask once it’s connected

“Get the current docs for React 19 hooks.”
“Show me working examples for Prisma transactions.”
“What changed in the Next.js App Router APIs?”
“Give me up-to-date Stripe SDK usage examples.”

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same Context7 connection works in Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool Context7 exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything Claude did with Context7 — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

Context7 passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
