 - [ ] Configure S3 deployment through the protected `docs-production`
       environment, AWS OIDC variables, and `DOCS_DEPLOY_ENABLED=true`.
 
+## Context7
+
+The root `context7.json` uses the current schema, indexes `docs/` and the
+root-level README, and excludes the template's operational files. It omits
+project metadata, branch names, versions, and usage rules so Context7 can infer
+safe defaults without template-specific placeholders. Adjust its paths if the
+project's user documentation lives elsewhere.
+
+- [ ] Publish useful documentation, then [submit the public repository to
+      Context7](https://context7.com/add-library).
+- [ ] Claim ownership from the library's Context7 admin page. Add the generated
+      `url` and `public_key` values to `context7.json`, push them to the default
+      branch, and complete the claim.
+- [ ] After claiming, use **Apply for Verification** on the admin page and
+      provide the requested project and documentation details if the automatic
+      quality check does not approve it.
+- [ ] Rely on Context7's usage-based automatic refreshes, refresh manually after
+      important releases, or enable `.github/workflows/context7-refresh.yml`.
+      Once enabled with a `CONTEXT7_API_KEY` repository secret and the
+      `CONTEXT7_REFRESH_ENABLED=true` repository variable, it refreshes after
+      each default-branch push so moving documentation files or folders in
+      `context7.json` does not silently disable automated refreshes.
+
 ## Continuous Integration
 
 - [ ] Set the `PACKAGE_IMPORT_NAME` repository variable to the package import
