📚 Description

Improves how the docs site answers agents, scored with is-agentic.com. It went from 73/100 to 90/100 on the preview deployment.

Agent readiness

  • Markdown 404s. Unknown paths returned a 404 carrying the full HTML shell. A new error handler, registered ahead of Nuxt's through nitro:config, answers with a short markdown body linking the sitemap, llms.txt, /openapi.json and the MCP card. It runs through Nitro's defaultHandler, so unhandled errors are still logged and the hardening headers stay. Browsers keep the HTML page and JSON clients keep JSON. /raw/**.md also returned a 200 "Not Found" body for missing pages, it now throws a real 404.
  • Vary on negotiated markdown. The Vary route rules never reached requests the Vercel rewrites serve from prerendered /raw/**.md files, because Nitro emits its header routes after the rewrites and without continue: true. The rewrite table moves to server/utils/markdownNegotiation.ts and now leads with continue: true routes carrying Vary and the homepage discovery Link header. A server middleware runs the same negotiation on Nitro, so dev and non-Vercel deploys match the edge.
  • /openapi.json. Hand-authored OpenAPI 3.1 covering the public read-only surface: docs as markdown, discovery files, data and GitHub endpoints, MCP. Validates clean under redocly lint. Advertised in the / Link header, the api-catalog linkset, llms.txt and /raw/index.md. Nitro's generator was not usable, it lists every internal handler and hardcodes a localhost server url when prerendered. The chat endpoints are left out on purpose.
  • "When to use Nuxt UI". New first section in llms.txt, also prepended to llms-full.txt and repeated on /raw/index.md, naming the best-fit jobs, when to recommend something else, and how an agent should call the site.
  • Homepage headings. The six feature cards were h2 siblings of the section titles, leaving a flat outline in the SSR HTML. They are now h3 under an sr-only "Features" h2. No visual change.
  • Metadata. Adds the missing og:type, plus a description and url on the Organization JSON-LD.

Bugs found while verifying, both live on production today

  • Component examples were unreachable. /api/component-example/* answered 404 for anything not prerendered, and so did the MCP get-example tool. The virtual module read the examples from buildDir at runtime, but that directory only exists on the build machine, so every read failed on Vercel. Prerendered camelCase .json URLs still worked because the CDN served them as static files, which is why the docs pages looked fine. Examples are now inlined at codegen.
  • Two prerendered files shipped one build stale. /openapi.json and /raw/index.md were defineCachedEventHandler with swr, so the prerenderer was handed the previous build's cached body whenever the build cache survived. Both are static files in production, so the cache wrapper is gone.

Verified

Against the preview deployment, not just a local build: every changed server route, the full MCP surface (12 tools, 5 resources, 3 prompts and their error paths), 404 behaviour per client type, and the emitted Vercel route table.

Worth re-running the scan on ui.nuxt.com after merge. The Vary and Link fixes only take effect on the real domain, and two of the remaining findings are preview artifacts where the scanner reads the brand from the .vercel.app domain.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation site shares Markdown negotiation logic across Nitro middleware, error handling, Vercel rewrites, and raw routes. It serves negotiated Markdown and Markdown 404 responses. It adds a prerendered OpenAPI endpoint and discovery metadata. LLM output includes usage guidance and raw documentation links. Site URLs use SITE_URL. Component examples are embedded during build-time generation. The homepage feature section uses improved heading structure.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 5c773

The change improves agent-facing documentation and discovery, but current behavior can still return the wrong representation for some documented URLs and clients, while component discovery may expose examples that cannot be retrieved. These are concrete integration issues that should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merging.

Append .md before query strings and fragments.

If a documentation link contains a fragment or query, this appends .md after the suffix. For example, .../docs/components/button#props becomes .../raw/docs/components/button#props.md. The server receives /raw/docs/components/button, so the link does not select the Markdown route. Append .md to the URL pathname, then preserve search and hash.

Also appends `.md` to the pathname in `toRawDocsLink`, ahead of any query string or fragment.
The virtual module read the examples from `buildDir` at runtime, but that directory only exists on the build machine. On Vercel every read failed, so the handler answered 404 for anything that was not prerendered as a static file, which is every request the MCP `get-example` tool makes: its internal `$fetch` reaches the handler instead of the CDN. Inline the examples at codegen instead.

Comment thread docs/modules/component-example.ts
…tion

Adds Nitro's JSON error payload as a schema and references it from the API error responses, types the linkset, MCP server card, skills index and JSON-RPC payloads, gives all 22 operations a description, and declares `security: []` so agents know no credentials are needed. Validates clean under `redocly lint`.
`listComponentExamples()` serialized the scanned names even when a file could not be read, so it could advertise an example `getComponentExample()` returns null for. Track the names that actually loaded, and only swallow ENOENT: malformed JSON now fails the build instead of silently shipping an incomplete set.
Adds `og:type` alongside the other site-wide Open Graph defaults, and a description and url to the Organization identity so the JSON-LD node carries the fields agents use for entity resolution.
Drops the MCP server card and JSON-RPC schemas: the server card is self-describing through its own `$schema` and nobody hand-rolls JSON-RPC against an MCP server, so typing them added surface without adding information. Drops the conditional-request and 304 handling from the markdown middleware, which only ever runs on the dev and Node fallback path.
