Mintlify Docs Skills — Setup Guide

Source: mintlify/docs GitHub: mintlify/docs Skills: 5 skills · 9.2K total installs Category: Documentation First Seen: catalogued August 15, 2026 evening sweep Quality Tier: 🟢 Production (official org — Mintlify, the docs platform vendor)

Mintlify's official skills teach agents to author documentation, update navigation, and build API references for Mintlify-based docs sites. Useful wherever teams maintain public docs — the exact class of work the CorpusIQ knowledge base represents.

Installation

npx skills add mintlify/docs

Prerequisites

Requirement Details
Node.js + npx For the skill installer
Mintlify project A Mintlify-based docs site

What It Provides

Skill Installs Purpose
mintlify 9.1K Core Mintlify authoring and configuration
doc-reader 36 Read and parse existing docs
doc-author 27 Author new documentation pages
update-nav 21 Update site navigation
mintlify-api 5 Mintlify API reference workflows

Quick Start

  1. Install: npx skills add mintlify/docs
  2. Start with the core mintlify skill — it carries 99% of the suite's installs
  3. Ask: "author this new page and wire it into the docs navigation"

CorpusIQ Use Cases

Use Case How
Client docs projects Authoring skills for clients running Mintlify sites
Migration reference doc-author patterns when moving content between docs platforms
Agent docs authoring A reference for how a docs vendor structures agent-side documentation skills
Nav management update-nav workflow pattern for any hierarchical docs site

Limitations / Verification

  • Publisher-page install counts verified; individual skill audit pages were not fetched for this multi-skill suite
  • The core skill dominates: doc-reader, doc-author, update-nav, and mintlify-api show sub-100 installs — early content
  • Requires a Mintlify project; not a general-purpose docs tool
npx skills add mintlify/docs   # verify install works
