MkDocs plugin for LLM-friendly documentation with direct markdown serving and i18n support

Project description

mkdocs-ask-ai

MkDocs plugin that makes your documentation AI-friendly:

  • "Use with AI" dropdown — Copy markdown, open in ChatGPT/Claude, view raw .md
  • llms.txt / llms-full.txt — LLM-optimized documentation indexes
  • Direct markdown serving — Access source markdown at .md URLs
  • i18n support — Per-locale output with mkdocs-static-i18n

Installation

pip install mkdocs-ask-ai

Quick Start

Add to your mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - ask-ai:
      sections:
        "Getting Started":
          - index.md: "Introduction"
          - quickstart.md
        "API Reference":
          - api/*.md

Every page gets a "Use with AI" button with:

  • Copy page as Markdown — clipboard copy for any AI tool
  • View as Markdown — opens .md source in a new tab
  • Open in ChatGPT — sends page content directly to ChatGPT
  • Open in Claude — sends page content directly to Claude
  • llms.txt — link to the full documentation index

With mkdocs-static-i18n

Place ask-ai before i18n in the plugins list:

plugins:
  - ask-ai:
      sections:
        "Docs":
          - "*.md"
  - i18n:
      docs_structure: suffix
      languages:
        - locale: en
          default: true
          name: English
        - locale: ru
          name: Русский

Generates separate outputs per locale:

  • site/llms.txt + site/llms-full.txt (default locale)
  • site/ru/llms.txt + site/ru/llms-full.txt (additional locales)
