Documentation

Everything you need to know about CodeThis — from creating your first paste to building integrations with the API and MCP server.

Getting Started

Create your first paste on CodeThis — no signup needed. Anonymous pastes last 7 days; free accounts keep them permanently.

Write docs with rich markdown and MDC custom components — alerts, callouts, steps, code groups, tabs. Rendered beautifully by default.

Share code with expiration, password protection, and public or private visibility. Control who can see your pastes and for how long.

REST API to create and manage pastes programmatically. Bearer auth, JSON responses, works with cURL, fetch, or any HTTP client.

MCP server for Claude, Cursor, and other AI assistants. Let your AI create and retrieve CodeThis pastes directly from chat.
