leadtype

A docs pipeline. Write MDX once. Get a website for humans, an llms.txt for HTTP agents, an AGENTS.md-fronted bundle for offline coding agents, and a static search index — all from a single source.

Loading

leadtype is not a docs website framework. Bring your own UI — Next.js, TanStack Start, Astro, anything — and let leadtype handle conversion, validation, search, and the agent-facing outputs that website frameworks don't ship.

Choose your path

• Build a docs site — wire leadtype into your build to convert MDX, index search, and serve markdown to agents.
• Bundle docs into your package — ship AGENTS.md plus topic markdown inside the npm tarball so consumers can point agents at version-matched docs in node_modules/<your-package>/.

Install

pnpm add leadtype

30-second example

For a hosted docs site:

npx leadtype generate --src . --out public --base-url https://leadtype.dev

For an npm-bundled doc set:

npx leadtype generate --bundle --src . --out packages/my-package

The first produces public/llms.txt, public/llms-full.txt, public/docs/search-index.json, and public/docs/*.md. The second produces packages/my-package/AGENTS.md and packages/my-package/docs/*.md with relative links that still work after npm install.

Documentation

• Methodology — how leadtype differs from Fumadocs, Starlight, and Mintlify

Repo layout

• packages/leadtype/ — the npm package (CLI + library entry points).
• apps/example/ — production docs site and reference template, on TanStack Start.
• docs/ — the source MDX rendered by both this site and the package's bundled docs.
