<Info>
|
|
The agent is available on [Pro and Enterprise plans](https://mintlify.com/pricing?ref=agent) for anyone with access to your dashboard.
|
|
</Info>
|
|
|
|
The agent creates pull requests with proposed changes to your documentation based on your prompts. When you send a request to the agent, it references your documentation, connected repositories, and Slack messages to create content that follows technical writing best practices and adheres to the Mintlify schema.
|
|
|
|
## What you can do with the agent
|
|
|
|
Use the agent to:
|
|
|
|
- Write new content based on your prompts, links to pull requests, or Slack threads.
|
|
- Revise outdated code examples and API references.
|
|
- Search and update existing content.
|
|
- Answer questions about your docs and technical writing topics.
|
|
- Capture knowledge from Slack conversations and pull requests before it gets lost.
|
|
|
|
