Get Version-Correct Library Docs with vg lib

AI assistants often suggest APIs from the wrong version of a library. vg lib fixes that by serving version-correct library docs pinned to your lockfile — the Free Dev Docs Library, available offline to any AI assistant.

Prerequisites

• A project with a lockfile (so versions can be resolved)

Steps

1. Build the graph

vg build

2. Pull library docs

vg lib

vg lib provides docs for the libraries in use, sourced from the hosted catalog or local ingestion.

3. Understand lockfile pinning

The docs are pinned to your lockfile, so they match the exact versions you actually depend on — not the latest release. That keeps AI suggestions correct for your project.

4. Serve docs to your assistant

Make the docs available locally and offline through Vibgrate AI Context:

vg serve

This starts the local, offline MCP server that serves your code map, drift, and version-correct library docs.

5. Wire it into your AI tool

Add Vibgrate AI Context to your assistant:

vg install

vg install wires up the skill and MCP integration. It is idempotent and repo-local, and supports Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Codex, and Gemini.

Verification

Confirm vg lib returns docs for libraries you actually depend on. After vg serve and vg install, your AI assistant should be able to consult version-correct docs offline.

Next Steps

• Start the offline server with vg serve
• Wire it into your assistant with vg install
• Ask the codebase a question with vg ask
