Mintlify Docs

About

Connects to the Mintlify documentation site. It searches the knowledge base for guides, code examples and API references, and reads pages and OpenAPI specs through a read-only virtual filesystem using commands such as head, cat and rg.

The server runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at https://www.mintlify.com/docs/mcp. No sign-in or API key is needed. Apart from the feedback tool, it is read-only and limited to the published documentation.

What you can do

• Search Mintlify docs for guides, examples and API references
• Read full documentation pages by .mdx path
• Run exact keyword or regex searches across docs
• Browse OpenAPI specs in the docs filesystem
• Report incorrect or outdated pages to the docs team

Tools 3

• search_mintlifyRead-only

  Search the Mintlify knowledge base and return contextual results with titles and links.

• query_docs_filesystem_mintlifyRead-only

  Run read-only shell-like queries (head, cat, rg) over the virtual docs filesystem.

• submit_feedbackWrites

  Send feedback to the docs team about an incorrect, outdated or unclear page.

Read from the live server on 15 Nov 2026. Read-only, Writes and Can delete are hints the server declares; your client decides whether to ask before running a tool.

Example prompts

• How do I set up the contextual menu in Mintlify?

• Search the Mintlify docs for how to configure redirects.

• Show me the page on the Mintlify CLI installation.

• Report that the quickstart page has an outdated example.

Embed

Show Mintlify Docs in a README or on your site. Each embed links to this page, uses the server’s own URL, and sets no cookies. How embeds work

The card, the iframe and the JSON are in English. Add ?lang=it, fr, de or es to their address for another language.

HTML

<a href="https://mcp.tc/i/mintlify-docs"><img src="https://mcp.tc/i/mintlify-docs/badge.svg" alt="Mintlify Docs on mcp.tc" height="20"></a>

It follows the reader’s light or dark mode. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to fix it, or ?style=compact to show the mark without the word.

Website card

HTML

<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/mintlify-docs.js" async></script>

The card appears where the tag is. Add data-theme="dark" or data-size="compact" to the tag to change it. The file holds everything it needs, so it makes no other requests and sets no cookies.

iframe

HTML

<iframe src="https://mcp.tc/embed/mintlify-docs" title="Mintlify Docs on mcp.tc" width="420" height="200" loading="lazy" allow="clipboard-write" style="border:0;border-radius:8px;max-width:100%"></iframe>

Use it on pages that don’t allow scripts. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to the address to fix the colors.

JSON

The listing as data for your own pages and tools: name, tagline, the server’s own URL, tools and the “Add to” links. Any site can read it (CORS is open).

AI prompt

Paste this into an AI coding assistant, such as Claude Code or Cursor, and it adds the Mintlify Docs card to your site.

Markdown

Add the mcp.tc card for Mintlify Docs, an MCP server, to my website. It is one static script: no build step, no package to install, no cookies.

Put this tag where the card should appear. The card renders right before it:

```html
<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/mintlify-docs.js" async></script>
```

To show the card somewhere else, put this placeholder there and load the same script once, for example before `</body>`. Keep the link inside: visitors without JavaScript see it.

```html
<div data-mcptc="mintlify-docs"><a href="https://mcp.tc/i/mintlify-docs">Mintlify Docs on mcp.tc</a></div>
```

Options:
- `data-theme="light"` or `"dark"` on the tag or the placeholder fixes the colors. Without it, the card follows the visitor’s light or dark mode.
- `data-size="compact"` gives a smaller card without the tagline.
- The CSS variable `--mcptc-max-width` on the placeholder or a parent sets the width (default `520px`).
- `?lang=` on the script URL sets the card’s language: `en`, `it`, `fr`, `de` or `es`.

If the site has a Content Security Policy, allow `script-src https://mcp.tc` and `img-src data:` (the icon is inline).

For a README or other Markdown docs, use the badge instead:
