+# Recommended MCP Servers
+
+While Roo Code can connect to any Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that follows the specification, the community has already built several high-quality servers that work out-of-the-box. This page curates the servers we **actively recommend** and provides step-by-step setup instructions so you can get productive in minutes.
+
+> We'll keep this list up-to-date. If you maintain a server you'd like us to consider, please open a pull-request.

+
+## Context7
+
+`Context7` is our first-choice general-purpose MCP server. It ships a collection of highly-requested tools, installs with a single command, and has excellent support across every major editor that speaks MCP.
+
+### Why we recommend Context7
+
+* **One-command install** – everything is bundled, no local build step.
+* **Cross-platform** – runs on macOS, Windows, Linux, or inside Docker.
+* **Actively maintained** – frequent updates from the Upstash team.
+* **Rich toolset** – database access, web-search, text utilities, and more.
+* **Open source** – released under the MIT licence.
+
+---
+
+## Installing Context7 in Roo Code
+
+There are two common ways to register the server:
+
+1. **Global configuration** – available in every workspace.
+2. **Project-level configuration** – checked into version control alongside your code.
+
+We'll cover both below.
+
+### 1. Global configuration
+
+1. Open the Roo Code **MCP settings** panel by clicking the <Codicon name="server" /> icon.
+2. Click **Edit Global MCP**.
+3. Paste the JSON below inside the `mcpServers` object and save.
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "context7": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "@upstash/context7-mcp@latest"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Windows (cmd.exe) variant**
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "context7": {
+      "type": "stdio",
+      "command": "cmd",
+      "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@upstash/context7-mcp@latest"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Also on **Windows (cmd)** you may need to invoke `npx` through `cmd.exe`:

+
+### 2. Project-level configuration
+
+If you prefer to commit the configuration to your repository, create a file called `.roo/mcp.json` at the project root and add the same snippet:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "context7": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "@upstash/context7-mcp@latest"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Windows (cmd.exe) variant**
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "context7": {
+      "type": "stdio",
+      "command": "cmd",
+      "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@upstash/context7-mcp@latest"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+<img src="/img/recommended-mcp-servers/context7-project-setup.png" alt="Adding Context7 to a project-level MCP file" width="600" />
+
+> When both global and project files define a server with the same name, **the project configuration wins**.
+
+---
+
+## Verifying the installation
+
+1. Make sure **Enable MCP Servers** is turned on in the MCP settings panel.
+2. You should now see **Context7** listed. Click the <Codicon name="activate" /> toggle to start it if it isn't already running.
+3. Roo Code will prompt you the first time a Context7 tool is invoked. Approve the request to continue.

+
+## Next steps
+
+* Browse the list of tools shipped with Context7 in the server pane.
+* Configure **Always allow** for the tools you use most to streamline your workflow.
+* Want to expose your own APIs? Check out the [MCP server creation guide](/features/mcp/using-mcp-in-roo#enabling-or-disabling-mcp-server-creation).
