Documentation sources#

The official Docs7 site lives in docs/. The custom in-app docs remain in ui/src/components/docs/ and ui/src/lib/docs/. Shared handbook pages under docs/handbook/ are generated from ui/src/lib/docs/articles.json; edit that source and regenerate instead of editing the generated pages.

Local workflow#

From the repository root:

Open http://localhost:3333. Verify the affected navigation, links, code blocks, API schema, mobile layout, search, and Markdown output. The CLI previews locally; hosted publication runs from GitHub.

API reference#

docs/api-reference/openapi.json is generated from the FastAPI application. Refresh it using the repository-owned exporter with the backend environment loaded, as documented in contributor setup. Never substitute the development database environment for the test environment when running tests.

API endpoint pages point to exact method/path pairs in the spec. Generated agent-only content also exposes parameter and response types directly to documentation retrieval tools. Regenerate the extended catalog after changing the schema:

Publishing settings#

Connect drewsephski/menace-voice in the Context7 team's Docs7 tab, set the production branch to main, and set Docs path to docs. Enable Add to Context7 and set the library's indexing branch to main too. Keep these settings aligned with the root context7.json. Merging documentation changes into main triggers publication.

After Publish, inspect the build's Log and Health, then check the live homepage, representative API pages, redirects, search, /llms.txt, and Context7 indexing. A build failure should leave the previous successful release available.

Keep changes reviewable#

Docs7 previews are created for eligible same-repository pull requests that change files inside docs/. Agent schedules and PR review settings are optional and should follow the team's chosen review process. Monthly Checkup is documented by Docs7 as planned, so do not depend on it for validation.

See the Docs7 quickstart, build behavior, and agent readiness for the platform contract.
