dotnet-library-docs
Look up current documentation for a library when training-data knowledge may
be stale (new major versions, renamed APIs, changed defaults). This replaces
the Context7 MCP server the plugin used to start in every session: the same
Context7 service, called with curl only when needed, so no Node process,
no npx download, and no tool schemas in the startup context.
Scope
- Third-party and NuGet library docs: API usage, configuration, migration notes, code snippets.
- Checking how the current version of a package does something before writing code against it.
- Non-.NET libraries in the same repo (front-end packages, CLIs) - Context7 indexes those too.
Out of scope
- Official .NET, ASP.NET Core, EF Core, and Azure reference -> the
microsoftdocs-mcpserver (Microsoft Learn) shipped with this plugin; routing via [skill:dotnet-advisor]. - Generating XML doc comments, READMEs, or API docs for the user's own code -> [skill:dotnet-docs-generator].
- Choosing which package or architecture to use -> [skill:dotnet-advisor].
