# Quick Start

> Orientation for the gotcontext MCP plugin — the few tools worth reaching for first. Use this skill when setting up the plugin, when unsure which gotcontext tool fits, or right after install. Covers gc_pre_flight (decide ingest/search/summarize/clear before expensive context ops), gc_search_docs + gc_read_doc (answer gotcontext product/API questions from live docs), and gc_submit_benchmark (publish an inference-benchmark run to the public leaderboard). Trigger phrases include "set up gotcontext", "how do I use the gotcontext plugin", "which gotcontext tool should I use", "getting started with gotcontext".

# GotContext Quick Start

Use this skill when setting up or using the gotcontext MCP plugin.

## Smart context selection

Use `gc_pre_flight` before expensive context operations to decide whether to ingest, search, summarize, or clear first.

## Docs lookup

Use `gc_search_docs` for gotcontext product/API documentation questions; it returns ranked doc URLs and snippets. Use `gc_read_doc` after `gc_search_docs` returns a URL, or pass a known slug such as "authentication", to retrieve the markdown source.

## Benchmark submission (free — all plans)

Use `gc_submit_benchmark` to publish an LLM inference benchmark run to the gotcontext.ai community leaderboard. Provide model name, quantization, hardware, and measured tokens/sec — the run is published immediately and a public URL is returned. Available on all plans (Free, Pro, Team, Enterprise). Rate-limited to 20 submissions per hour per key.
