Hey there! 👋 Thanks for posting in the GitHub Community, @lucdev01234-png ! You are more likely to get a useful response if you are posting in the applicable category. The Actions category is a place for our community to discuss and provide feedback on GitHub Actions, the CI/CD platform that allows you to automate your build, test, and deployment pipeline. I've gone ahead and moved this to the correct category for you. Good luck! |

Discussion Details
We're trying to improve how we manage API documentation across our repositories and are looking for a reliable CLI tool for API documentation.
Our goal is to make API documentation part of our Git-based development workflow instead of treating it as a separate manual task.
Ideally, we'd like a workflow that can:
Generate documentation from OpenAPI specifications
Validate API definitions automatically
Keep documentation synchronized with API changes
Run documentation checks from the command line
Integrate with GitHub Actions
Work well with pull requests and code reviews
We're considering a workflow where an API specification is updated in a repository, then a CLI tool validates it and generates or updates the documentation automatically as part of the CI pipeline.
For teams using GitHub:
Which CLI tool do you use for API documentation?
Do you generate API docs automatically from OpenAPI?
Have you integrated documentation generation into GitHub Actions?
How do you keep API documentation synchronized with your codebase?
I'd be interested to hear what workflows and tools other developers are using.
