Summary

  • Add new page: api-setup/connect-ai-tools
  • Document MCP setup for Claude Code and Cursor
  • Add Request Network MCP endpoint and llms.txt / llms-full.txt links
  • Add navigation entry under API Setup in docs.json

Why

Developers increasingly use AI coding tools. This page makes docs grounding setup explicit and copy-paste ready.

Test plan

  • Previewed page in Mintlify dev
  • Verified navigation entry appears under API Setup
  • Verified links and commands render correctly

Made with Cursor

Add a dedicated API setup page for connecting Claude Code and Cursor via MCP,
including Request Network Mintlify MCP and llms endpoints, then wire it into nav.

Greptile Summary

This PR adds a new api-setup/connect-ai-tools documentation page and a corresponding docs.json navigation entry, giving developers copy-paste-ready instructions for connecting Claude Code or Cursor to Request Network docs via MCP, as well as llms.txt / llms-full.txt links for script-based pipelines.

Key points:

  • The MCP server URL, CLI command, and Cursor configuration fields are all accurate and self-consistent.
  • The docs.json placement (after getting-started, before the portal/API key management page) is logical.
  • Three style-guide violations from AGENTS.md are present in the new .mdx file: the Claude Code and Cursor sections should be wrapped in a <Tabs> component (the guide explicitly requires Tabs for platform alternatives), the "Verify the connection" step is missing a <Check> callout, and there is no troubleshooting section despite the guide requiring one for likely failure points.
  • No broken links, no secrets, and no functional regressions.

Confidence Score: 4/5

  • Safe to merge with minor style-guide fixes remaining.
  • The changes are purely additive documentation with no functional code. The MCP URL, CLI command syntax, and nav entry are all correct. The three P2 comments are all style-guide alignment issues (Tabs, Check callout, troubleshooting section) that improve the page but don't block it from being useful and accurate as-is.
  • api-setup/connect-ai-tools.mdx — three AGENTS.md style violations worth addressing before or after merge.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
api-setup/connect-ai-tools.mdx New page documenting MCP setup for Claude Code and Cursor; content is accurate and well-structured, but violates AGENTS.md guidelines by using separate H2 sections instead of <Tabs> for platform alternatives, omitting <Check> callouts in verification steps, and missing a troubleshooting section.
docs.json Adds api-setup/connect-ai-tools to the navigation under the "🔑 API Setup" group — minimal, correct change with valid JSON and sensible placement after getting-started.
