Continue Cookbook

Rule for creating a Continue Cookbook with the correct format.

Rules

All cookbook documentation MUST follow this exact structure and order:

  1. What You'll Build - Card component with icon="robot"
  2. What You'll Learn - Bulleted list with exactly 3-4 learning objectives starting with "This cookbook teaches you to:"
  3. Prerequisites - List including: primary requirement, service account, Node.js 18+, Continue CLI with active credits, additional tools
  4. Continue CLI Setup Steps - Steps component with: Install Continue CLI, Set up CLI Account & API Key, Add service-specific secrets
  5. [Service Name] Continuous AI Workflow Options - Card with "🚀 Fastest Path to Success" + Tabs with "⚡ Quick Start (Recommended)" and "🛠️ Manual Setup"
  6. Agent Requirements - Accordion explaining Continue CLI Pro Plan OR own API keys

Follow proper Mintlify formatting:

  • Add blank lines after opening and before closing tags in Card, Info, Tip, Warning components
  • Indent content by 2 spaces within components
  • Use proper list formatting with each item on its own line
  • Use consistent heading hierarchy starting with h2 (##)
