Mintlify MCP connector

The Mintlify connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other AI clients publish documentation updates, preview changes, hand rewrites to the Mintlify agent, and review reader feedback, searches and page views, all inside each person's own access.

Connect on Elaichi How to connect

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Mintlify to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

In Elaichi

Connect Mintlify once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Mintlify.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a Mintlify API key. One person generates a token in Mintlify and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Mintlify to Claude?

Connect Mintlify in Elaichi by pasting in a Mintlify API key from your project settings, then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Once connected, Claude can publish updates, create previews and read feedback and analytics from your Mintlify docs.

Does Mintlify work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. You connect Mintlify once in Elaichi and the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. Each client signs in over OAuth, so nobody pastes the Mintlify API key anywhere else.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Mintlify data?

An agent connected to Mintlify can start a documentation update and check whether it finished, create a preview of a change, and hand a rewrite to the Mintlify agent with follow-up instructions. It can also read the content of a page, list reader feedback by page, list search queries, page views, unique visitors and assistant conversations, and ask the Mintlify assistant a question. It cannot delete pages or change project settings, because this connector does not cover those actions.

Does connecting Mintlify give the AI access to my whole documentation project?

Access follows the Mintlify API key that was used to connect, and the AI can only reach the projects that key can reach. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example by allowing analytics and feedback while blocking updates and previews, but it never widens what the key already allows. Everything the AI does in Mintlify is recorded against the person who asked for it.

Can my team share one Mintlify connection?

Yes. One person connects Mintlify in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever sees or handles the Mintlify API key. Each teammate still signs in as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person who published an update or read the feedback.

Can I stop an agent from publishing or changing things in Mintlify?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can let people read Mintlify feedback, searches and page views while blocking project updates, previews and agent jobs. A blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor at all, so no prompt can trigger it.

What happens to a Mintlify connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Mintlify at once, across every client they used. If they had shared a Mintlify connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else. Disconnecting Mintlify once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other connected client.

Does the Mintlify MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Mintlify is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Mintlify?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Mintlify. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Mintlify call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Mintlify?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Mintlify: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
