Contribute with AI assistance

The easiest way to contribute is with Claude Code. We have a built-in skill that guides you through the process.

​
Step 1: Fork and clone

# Fork on GitHub first, then:
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/docs.git
cd docs
pnpm install

​
Step 2: Tell Claude what you want to contribute

Open Claude Code in the project and describe what you want to add:
  • “I want to add a new spec template for Next.js projects”
  • “I want to improve the multi-agent documentation”

​
Step 3: Claude uses the contribute skill automatically

Claude will read the contribute skill and guide you through:
  • Where to put your files
  • What related files need updating (docs.json, index pages)
  • Bilingual requirements (EN + ZH)
  • How to test locally

​
Step 4: Review and submit PR

Review the changes, test with pnpm dev, push to your fork, then open a PR to the original repo.
The contribute skill knows the project structure and conventions. It handles the details so you can focus on content.

​
Ways to contribute

​
Report issues

Found a problem with the docs? Open an issue: https://github.com/mindfold-ai/docs/issues Include:
  • Which page has the issue
  • What’s wrong or confusing
  • Suggested fix (if you have one)

​

​
Contribute a Skill

Skills extend AI capabilities. To add a new skill:
  1. Fork the Trellis repo
  2. Create skill directory: 
    marketplace/skills/your-skill/
└── SKILL.md
  3. Open a PR to the Trellis repo
  4. (Optional) Create documentation pages in docs repo (skills-market/your-skill.mdx + Chinese version)
See Claude Code Skills documentation for SKILL.md format.
Skills are hosted in the Trellis main repo, not in docs.

​
Contribute a Spec Template

Spec templates are Trellis project guidelines (not Claude features). To add one:
  1. Fork the repo
  2. Create marketplace/specs/your-template/ with guideline files
  3. Create documentation pages (templates/specs-your-template.mdx + Chinese version)
  4. Update docs.json navigation
  5. Open a PR
Good contributions are:
  • Specific and actionable
  • Well-documented
  • Tested on real projects

​
Fix typos and improve clarity

Small fixes: edit directly on GitHub and submit a PR. Larger changes: clone locally, make changes, test with pnpm dev.

​
Development setup

# Install dependencies
pnpm install

# Start local dev server
pnpm dev

# Check markdown lint
pnpm lint:md

# Verify docs structure
pnpm verify

# Format files
pnpm format

​
Bilingual requirement

All user-facing content must have both English and Chinese versions:
EnglishChinese
guides/example.mdxzh/guides/example.mdx
templates/example.mdxzh/templates/example.mdx
Update docs.json navigation for both languages.

​
Commit messages

Use conventional commits: 
docs: add Next.js spec template
fix: correct broken link in quickstart
feat: add new skill to marketplace

​
PR process

  1. Create a PR with a clear description
  2. Ensure CI checks pass (lint, verify)
  3. Wait for review
  4. Address feedback
  5. Merge after approval
