A Cursor plugin that gives Cursor a comprehensive reference for building Mintlify documentation sites.
Installs a mintlify skill and writing rules that Cursor can use when working on Mintlify-powered sites.
The skill covers:
- Components — Full syntax and props for all Mintlify components (callouts, cards, steps, tabs, accordions, code groups, fields, frames, and more)
- Configuration — Complete
docs.jsonsettings reference including theme, colors, logo, fonts, navbar, footer, redirects, integrations, and custom CSS/JS - Navigation — All navigation patterns: groups, tabs, anchors, dropdowns, products, versions, and languages
- API docs — OpenAPI and AsyncAPI setup, endpoint pages, API playground configuration
- CLI — Full reference for every
mintCLI command and flag
Install from the Cursor Marketplace. Plugins can be installed at the user level or scoped to a project.
This plugin includes two Mintlify MCP servers that are activated automatically when you install the plugin.
- Mintlify — Read-only access to Mintlify's published documentation. Use to look up component signatures, config options, and guides.
- Mintlify MCP — Write access to your Mintlify project. Requires OAuth on first use. Enables editing content, restructuring navigation, and opening pull requests directly from Cursor.
The skill loads a concise core reference and routes to detailed reference files only when the task requires them:
| Reference file | Contents |
|---|---|
reference/components.md |
All component syntax, props, and examples |
reference/configuration.md |
Full docs.json schema and frontmatter fields |
reference/navigation.md |
Navigation patterns and when to use each |
reference/api-docs.md |
API documentation setup and playground config |
reference/cli.md |
CLI commands and flags |
Always-on writing guardrails that activate when editing .mdx files or docs.json. Covers:
- File conventions and naming
- Internal link format (root-relative, no extensions)
- Required page frontmatter
- Writing standards (voice, headings, code blocks, alt text)
- Common mistakes to avoid
