This is the documentation for the Kernel platform. It's connected to onkernel.com/docs.

Code samples in the docs are generated from our OpenAPI spec so the examples stay in sync with the API. There are two ways the generator is invoked:

• Custom MDX tag: use <OpenAPICodeGroup>get /api/v1/users</OpenAPICodeGroup> (or omit the verb to use the default behavior).

How the generator works (current behavior):

• The script is .github/scripts/generate_code_samples.ts and is executed with Bun. It fetches the OpenAPI spec from the URL configured at the top of that script.
• It reads x-codeSamples entries for each operation and extracts samples for TypeScript/JavaScript and Python. Samples are normalized and may be transformed by simple "overrides" (see the script for the override parsing and injection heuristics).
• It writes snippet files under snippets/openapi/ as MDX files containing a <CodeGroup> with the generated code fences. It also updates any MDX files under apps/ and browsers/ that contain the inline or tag forms by replacing them with the generated <CodeGroup> blocks.
• The generator can produce a base snippet and additional variant snippets controlled by .github/scripts/code_samples.config.json (variants are keyed by "method /path").
• The script also removes stale snippet files matching the -.mdx suffix pattern.

How it affects the repository:

• New or updated files are created under snippets/openapi/*.mdx.
• MDX pages in apps/ and browsers/ may be modified in-place to replace <OpenAPICodeGroup>/mustache tags with generated <CodeGroup> blocks.
• A GitHub Action (.github/workflows/generate_code_snippets.yaml) runs the script on push (except to main), commits any changes, and pushes them to the gh_action_generated_docs branch so Mintlify can deploy the generated docs.

Notes and gotchas:

• The generator runs remotely against the OpenAPI URL defined in the script, so it needs network access and the spec to include x-codeSamples for useful output.
• The override parsing and code injection are heuristic. Complex sample sources might not be transformed exactly as intended. See the script for details on how keys/log overrides are applied.
• The GitHub Action installs Bun and runs the script; if you run it locally, install Bun and run bun run .github/scripts/generate_code_samples.ts from the repo root.

Example: to add a snippet placeholder to a page, add <OpenAPICodeGroup>get /api/v1/users</OpenAPICodeGroup> and let the generator fill snippets/openapi and update the page during the next run.

To run the docs locally, you can use the following command:
