ZRead Dependency Documentation Skill

Use this skill to explore open source repositories, read their documentation, understand project structure, and analyze source code.

Prerequisites

The ZRead MCP server must be configured. It uses the ZAI_API_KEY from your environment.

Available Tools

1. search_doc

Search documentation, issues, PRs, and contributor info for a repository.

Use: "Search the documentation for {owner/repo} about {topic}"
Example: "Search the documentation for langchain-ai/langchain about memory systems"

2. get_repo_structure

Get the directory tree and file list of a repository.

Use: "Show me the structure of {owner/repo}"
Example: "Show me the structure of anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python"

3. read_file

Read the complete content of a specific file.

Use: "Read the file {path} from {owner/repo}"
Example: "Read the file src/anthropic/client.py from anthropics/anthropic-sdk-python"
