Page index: https://tako.sh/llms.txt. Docs and blog posts also have .md URLs.

This site has a search endpoint: https://context7.com/api/v2/ask?siteKey=ask_b8918f0414955bb91bfa1a89&query=<URL-encoded question>. It returns documentation that answers the question, with a source link for each part. No API key is needed. If nothing matches, it says so.


Echo implements `http.Handler`, so Tako can host it without Echo opening its own listener. This example uses Echo v5, matching the repository example; v4 applications retain their v4 import and context types.

```bash
go get tako.sh github.com/labstack/echo/v5
```

```go main.go
package main

import (
    "log"
    "net/http"

    "github.com/labstack/echo/v5"
    "tako.sh"
)

func main() {
    app := echo.New()
    app.GET("/", func(c *echo.Context) error {
        return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, map[string]bool{"ok": true})
    })
    if err := tako.ListenAndServe(app); err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
}
```

Preserve route registration, middleware, and error handlers. Replace Echo's final server-start call with `tako.ListenAndServe`; Tako provides readiness, internal status authentication, and graceful shutdown. Use `runtime = "go"` and the [Go build configuration](/docs/go-http/#configure-and-verify). No Echo-specific preset is required.

Use [Secrets](/docs/secrets/) for private application values. [Presence](/docs/presence/) and [Stores](/docs/stores/) registrations work through the Go HTTP SDK independently of Echo routing.

## Verify

Run `go test ./...`, start with `tako dev --background --json`, and request the returned HTTPS URL. Test middleware and error responses as well as the happy path. Deploy through [Deployment](/docs/deployment/) and verify the public route and finite logs.
