Summary

  • Documents the new anonymous usage telemetry in the Mintlify CLI, which collects command names, CLI version, OS, and architecture to help improve the product.
  • Explains how to opt out using mint --telemetry false or environment variables (MINTLIFY_TELEMETRY_DISABLED, DO_NOT_TRACK).

Triggered by: CLI telemetry feature shipped in mintlify/mint#6790.


Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only change describing anonymous CLI telemetry and how to disable it; no product code or data-handling logic is modified.

Overview
Adds a new Telemetry section to installation.mdx documenting the Mintlify CLI’s anonymous usage telemetry (what is collected and what is explicitly not collected).

Documents opt-out/opt-in controls via the --telemetry flag, supported environment variables (MINTLIFY_TELEMETRY_DISABLED, DO_NOT_TRACK), and notes that the preference is persisted in ~/.config/mintlify/config.json.
