AI API Documentation Generator
Connect your GitHub repo and automatically generate beautiful, accurate API documentation from your codebase. Stays in sync as you ship — never out of date again.
The Prompt
Build an AI API documentation generator that: 1) Connects to GitHub and analyzes codebase structure 2) Detects API endpoints (REST, GraphQL, tRPC) from route definitions 3) Uses Claude API to generate documentation for each endpoint: description, parameters, response format, code examples, and error codes 4) Generates interactive API explorer (like Swagger/Postman) 5) Auto-upates docs on every push via GitHub Actions webhook 6) Supports multiple languages: JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust 7) Exports to Markdown, HTML, or OpenAPI spec 8) Has a beautiful docs site with search, syntax highlighting, and copy-paste examples 9) Includes changelog generation from commit messages. Use Next.js for docs site, Supabase for config, Claude API for doc generation.
