@dreki-gg/pi-doc-search

Library doc-search tools for pi, powered by Context7. Bypasses MCP entirely — direct HTTP to the Context7 API with a persistent searchable cache.

Formerly published as @dreki-gg/pi-context7.

Install

pi install npm:@dreki-gg/pi-doc-search

Tools

Tool	Description
doc_search_resolve_library_id	Resolve a library/package name to a Context7 library ID
doc_search_get_library_docs	Fetch curated docs by ID or name (auto-resolves)
doc_search_get_cached_doc_raw	Read full raw cached docs by docRef or semantic lookup

Configuration

Set env var (preferred):

export CONTEXT7_API_KEY=ctx7sk-...

Or create ~/.pi/agent/extensions/doc-search/config.json:

{
  "apiKey": "ctx7sk-...",
  "cache": {
    "resolveTtlHours": 168,
    "docsTtlHours": 24
  }
}

API key is optional — Context7 works without one but with lower rate limits.

Cache

Stored under ~/.pi/agent/extensions/doc-search/cache/ with:

• Atomic JSON writes
• Structured indexes (by library name, version, ID, docRef)
• TTL-based expiry with stale fallback
• Automatic pruning of expired/orphaned entries
