Which file does this skill specifically modify?

This skill primarily modifies the docs.json file located in the root of your Mintlify documentation directory to manage sidebar navigation.

Does it verify if the MDX file actually exists?

Yes, it confirms the file path is correct relative to the documentation root before adding it to the navigation structure.

Does it support internationalization and translations?

It updates the English language section of the docs.json file; Mintlify typically handles translated content updates automatically after the English source changes.

Can it automatically determine the correct navigation group?

It analyzes the existing docs.json structure to suggest groups like 'Customize' or 'Get Started,' but will ask for confirmation if the group is not specified or obvious.
