In Context7's "Add Libraries" flow, I can only choose GitHub, GitLab, OpenAPI, LLMs.txt, or Website, but some of my libraries live in Git repositories on other hosting platforms. For example, I could not index https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux either as a website or as Git. Is there now a way to add a library from a custom Git URL?

Fixed. A Context7 collaborator announced on 2026-02-24 that custom Git URL support is released and closed the ticket as completed. The feature is available at https://context7.com/add-library?tab=git. The thread does not describe the form fields or exact UI beyond the address with the git tab, so start by opening that link and trying the Git option there. One user had reported earlier that https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux could not be indexed either as a website or as a Git repository, which is the kind of case this feature is meant to cover. No further configuration steps, CLI commands, or version details are given in the thread. If the page asks for repository details not mentioned here, check the Context7 documentation or the page itself rather than assuming the same input format as GitHub or GitLab.

**What @kaktaknet tried on GitHub** (Didn't work) A commenter tried to add https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux to Context7 before the custom Git feature existed and found it could not be indexed as a website or as a Git repository.
