What it does
Mintlify Claude Docs is an agent skill from lilinji/ai-infra-odyssey. Build, write, review, migrate, and maintain Mintlify documentation in a restrained Claude Docs-inspired style. Use when creating or editing docs, MDX pages, docs.json, style-guide.md, DESIGN.md, documentation navigation, API references, tutorials, how-to guides, explanations, changelogs, or AI-readable documentation.
Its SKILL.md is about 8.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Writing & Content, covering Design tokens, Technical writing and Changelog and release notes. The repository describes itself as: AI Infra 大话西游之水滴石穿 - 专栏全景硬核技术实战.
When your agent uses it
- Documentation navigation
- AI-readable documentation
Example prompts
- “/mintlify-claude-docs”
Workflow steps
12 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Purpose
- Responsibility boundaries
- Required reading order
- Operating principles
- Documentation content model
- Tutorial pages
- How-to guide pages
- Reference pages
- Explanation pages
- Voice and tone
- Prohibited writing patterns
- Headings
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 38e26eb. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
curl
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
mintlify.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Mintlify Claude Docs loads about 8.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,406 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 3,406 words (~8,197 tokens).
