Identify the library before looking up its docs
Start with a reliable library match when a message includes a shorthand name, product name, or uncertain package reference.

Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Resolve-library-id
Resolves a package/product name to a Context7-compatible library ID and returns matching libraries. You MUST call this function before 'query-docs' to obtain a valid Context7-compatible library ID UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. Selection Process: 1. Analyze the query to understand what library/package the user is looking for 2. Return the most relevant match based on: - Name similarity to the query (exact matches prioritized) - Description relevance to the query's intent - Documentation coverage (prioritize libraries with higher Code Snippet counts) - Source reputation (consider libraries with High or Medium reputation more authoritative) - Benchmark Score: Quality indicator (100 is the highest score) Response Format: - Return the selected library ID in a clearly marked section - Provide a brief explanation for why this library was chosen - If multiple good matches exist, acknowledge this but proceed with the most relevant one - If no good matches exist, clearly state this and suggest query refinements For ambiguous queries, request clarification before proceeding with a best-guess match. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best result you have.
Why this helps
A documentation query is only useful when it targets the right library, and shorthand names can be ambiguous.
- Resolve names using Context7's library catalog
- Expose multiple plausible matches
- Prepare a clear next step for docs research
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Context7 MCP once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to resolve the library name in each Ably webhook and return the compatible ID and relevant match details.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real package or product name that is not always written consistently.
Questions about this workflow
Is the resolver required before every docs query?
Context7 requires resolving a library ID before query-docs unless the request already supplies a compatible library ID.
Can the workflow return more than one match?
Yes. Ask it to show plausible matches when the name is ambiguous so the intended library can be selected.

Query-docs
Retrieves and queries up-to-date documentation and code examples from Context7 for any programming library or framework. You must call 'resolve-library-id' first to obtain the exact Context7-compatible library ID required to use this tool, UNLESS the user explicitly provides a library ID in the format '/org/project' or '/org/project/version' in their query. IMPORTANT: Do not call this tool more than 3 times per question. If you cannot find what you need after 3 calls, use the best information you have.
