Using the Mintlify admin connector safely
A guide to the Mintlify admin connector: confirm the project and deploy branch, choose between read-only and full access, and approve every content or settings change before it runs.
Use it when
- Connecting Mintlify to an AI tool for the first time
- Deciding whether an assistant should only read the docs or also edit them
- Working out whether a docs change goes live now or through a pull request

Connect my Mintlify docs to Claude so it can help me edit pages, but make sure it can't publish anything without asking me first.
I'll set up a full admin connection scoped to your 'acme-docs' project, since that's the one you named. Edits to the deploy branch stay unpublished until you publish them. Before any edit, publish, or settings change, I'll list the exact action and wait for your explicit yes. For read-only questions, I can use the knowledge-only connection instead.
