Agent skill
fetch-library-docs
Fetches official documentation for external libraries and frameworks (React, Next.js, Prisma, FastAPI, Express, Tailwind, MongoDB, etc.) with 60-90% token savings via content-type filtering. Use this skill when implementing features using library APIs, debugging library-specific errors, troubleshooting configuration issues, installing or setting up frameworks, integrating third-party packages, upgrading between library versions, or looking up correct API patterns and best practices. Triggers automatically during coding work - fetch docs before writing library code to get correct patterns, not after guessing wrong.

Library Documentation Skill
Fetches official library documentation with 60-90% token savings.
WHEN TO INVOKE (Auto-Detection)
INVOKE AUTOMATICALLY when:
| Context | Detection Signal | Content Type |
|---|---|---|
| Implementing | About to write code using library API | examples,api-ref |
| Debugging | Error contains library name (e.g., PrismaClientError) |
troubleshooting |
| Installing | Adding new package, npm install, setup task |
setup |
| Integrating | Connecting libraries ("use X with Y") | examples,setup |
| Upgrading | Version migration, breaking changes | migration |
| Uncertain | First use of library feature, unsure of pattern | examples |
DO NOT INVOKE when:
- Already have sufficient knowledge from training
- User pasted docs or has them open
- Task is about local/private code (use codebase search)
- Comparing libraries (use web search)
DECISION LOGIC
1. Identify Library
Priority: User mention → Error message → File imports → package.json → Ask user
Examples:
PrismaClientKnownRequestError→ library = "prisma"import { useState } from 'react'→ library = "react"from fastapi import FastAPI→ library = "fastapi"
2. Identify Topic
Priority: User specifies → Error message → Feature being implemented → "getting started"
3. Select Content Type
| Task | Content Type |
|---|---|
| Implementing code | examples,api-ref |
| Debugging error | troubleshooting,examples |
| Installing/setup | setup |
| Integrating libs | examples,setup |
| Upgrading version | migration |
| Understanding why | concepts |
| Best practices | patterns |
EXECUTION
# With known library ID (faster - saves 1 API call)
bash scripts/fetch-docs.sh --library-id <id> --topic "<topic>" --content-type <types>
# With library name (auto-resolves)
bash scripts/fetch-docs.sh --library <name> --topic "<topic>" --content-type <types>
Quick Library IDs
| Library | ID |
|---|---|
| React | /reactjs/react.dev |
| Next.js | /vercel/next.js |
| Prisma | /prisma/docs |
| Tailwind | /tailwindlabs/tailwindcss.com |
| FastAPI | /tiangolo/fastapi |
See references/library-ids.md for complete list.
ERROR HANDLING (Quick Reference)
| Error | Action |
|---|---|
[LIBRARY_NOT_FOUND] |
Try spelling variations |
[LIBRARY_MISMATCH] |
Use --library-id directly |
[EMPTY_RESULTS] |
Broaden topic or use --content-type all |
[RATE_LIMIT_ERROR] |
Check API key setup |
Call Budget: Context7 allows 3 calls/question. Use --library-id to save 1 call.
See references/context7-tools.md for full error handling.

Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
docker-rocker
Production-grade Docker containerization for FastAPI, Pytest, SQLModel, and Pydantic projects. This skill should be used when users ask to dockerize FastAPI applications, create multi-stage Docker builds, optimize Docker images for Python APIs, set up CI/CD Docker pipelines, or deploy containerized Python web APIs with maximum performance and minimal image size.
fastapi-helper
FastAPI development assistant for building modern Python web APIs. Provides guidance on routing, request/response handling, dependency injection, authentication, middleware, WebSockets, testing, and Pydantic models. Use when: (1) Creating FastAPI applications or endpoints, (2) Implementing CRUD operations, (3) Setting up authentication/authorization, (4) Working with request parameters (path, query, body, headers, cookies, forms, files), (5) Configuring middleware or CORS, (6) Implementing WebSocket connections, (7) Writing tests for FastAPI apps, (8) Defining Pydantic models for validation.
doc-coauthoring
Guide users through a structured workflow for co-authoring documentation. Use when user wants to write documentation, proposals, technical specs, decision docs, or similar structured content. This workflow helps users efficiently transfer context, refine content through iteration, and verify the doc works for readers. Trigger when user mentions writing docs, creating proposals, drafting specs, or similar documentation tasks.
internal-comms
A set of resources to help me write all kinds of internal communications, using the formats that my company likes to use. Claude should use this skill whenever asked to write some sort of internal communications (status reports, leadership updates, 3P updates, company newsletters, FAQs, incident reports, project updates, etc.).
cover-letter-generator

Use when: (1) User wants to create cover letters for AI/ML job applications, (2) User provides a resume and wants LinkedIn job matching, (3) User asks for personalized cover letters based on job postings, (4) User mentions applying for AI Engineer, ML Engineer, or similar technical roles. Integrates market intelligence, LinkedIn research via Playwright, and professional writing standards.
skill-validator
Validates skills against production-level criteria with 9-category scoring. This skill should be used when reviewing, auditing, or improving skills to ensure quality standards. Evaluates structure, content, user interaction, documentation, domain standards, technical robustness, maintainability, zero-shot implementation, and reusability. Returns actionable validation report with scores and improvement recommendations.
