Mintlify: Inflated agent views in docs analytics
Timeline of updates
- identified
The Analytics dashboard has overcounted agent views for documentation sites served from a subpath (for example, example.com/docs: http://example.com/docs (opens in new tab)). Requests from Claude Code to these sites’ MCP endpoints were recorded as page views. That inflated the Views total and the share of traffic attributed to agents.
Documentation sites and MCP servers were not affected, and human visitor metrics are accurate.
We’ve identified the cause and are deploying a fix. Once it’s live, we’ll remove the miscounted views so the affected days show corrected numbers, and we’ll post an update when that’s done.
Archive proof
Rewindex commits each version of an incident it captures to a daily checkpoint, chains it to the day before, and has the checkpoint timestamped by FreeTSA and DigiCert.
How the archive is checked, and what it cannot prove.
Rewindex captured this after the last checkpoint; the next run () commits it.
Impact, status and times are the vendor’s own, as last archived. View on status.mintlify.com (opens in new tab).
