Mintlify MDX files look great — but when your codebase evolves, those beautifully formatted pages go stale. DocsCanary monitors every GitHub PR and sends Mintlify documentation alerts the moment drift is detected.
Mintlify stores documentation as MDX files — typically in a docs/ folder inside the same repository as your code. This proximity is convenient, but it does not prevent drift. When a developer renames an API parameter, changes an endpoint path, or removes a configuration option, the adjacent MDX files are rarely updated in the same PR.
DocsCanary reads the diff of every pull request, identifies which Mintlify pages reference the changed code, and raises an alert before the merge happens — turning documentation maintenance from a reactive chore into an automatic quality gate.
Install the DocsCanary GitHub app on your organisation. It watches every pull request for code changes that touch documented surfaces.
Point DocsCanary at your Mintlify docs directory or subdomain. We index your MDX pages and build a map between code and documentation.
When a PR changes code covered by a Mintlify page, DocsCanary posts an inline PR comment and optionally sends a Slack or email notification listing every affected page.
