Pipedream provides developer tools to make it easy to work with Pipedream Connect aloginside whatever AI tools you use. You can use these tools to get instant access to Pipedream’s documentation, API references, and code examples directly in your AI assistant or IDE.

​
AI contextual menu

Pipedream’s documentation includes built-in tools to make it easy to share content with AI assistants:

​
Copy a page as Markdown

Press Command + C (Ctrl + C on Windows) on any page in the docs to copy it as Markdown to your clipboard. You can then paste this directly into your AI assistant for context-aware help.

​
Send a page to your AI assistant

Click the AI menu in the top right of any page in the docs to send the current page to ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity to easily get immediate help with the specific topic you’re reading about.

​
LLM-optimized documentation

Pipedream’s documentation is optimized for AI consumption with automatically generated llms.txt and llms-full.txt files:

​
llms.txt

Similar to how a sitemap helps search engines, llms.txt provides a structured index of all the pages in the docs. AI tools can use this to quickly understand our documentation structure and find relevant content. View it at: pipedream.com/docs/llms.txt

​
llms-full.txt

For comprehensive context, llms-full.txt flattens the entire docs site into a single file. You can provide this URL to AI tools for more accurate responses about Pipedream. View it at: pipedream.com/docs/llms-full.txt

​
Pipedream Docs MCP Server

For a more integrated development experience, you can add the Pipedream Docs MCP (Model Context Protocol) server to your IDE. This enables your AI assistant to directly access and search Pipedream’s documentation without leaving your development environment.
If you’re looking to use Pipedream MCP to add thousands of tools to the app you’re building, see these docs.
