fern-docs agent skill

You can now install the fern-docs agent skill to teach coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot how to work with Fern Docs. The skill covers docs.yml configuration, navigation, MDX pages, components, and changelog entries, with task-specific references that agents load on demand.

npx skills add fern-api/skills --skill fern-docs

Host agent skills from your docs site

Fern docs sites can now serve author-supplied Agent Skills at the standard /.well-known/skills/ and /.well-known/agent-skills/ endpoints. Place your skill bundle under fern/.well-known/agent-skills/ and the CLI uploads it during fern generate --docs. Users install with npx skills add https://<your-domain>.

"Install skills" page action

You can now add an "Install skills" button to the page action bar via page-actions.options.skills in docs.yml. The button opens a modal showing a copyable install command, the list of available skills, and a link to the skill source. The modal fetches the site's served well-known manifest on first open, so the skill list stays in sync with what npx skills add installs.
