Summary
Hayden Bleasel (OpenAI) released Blume, an MIT-licensed open-source documentation framework that turns a Markdown/MDX folder into a production docs site with zero config (npm v1.0.3). Built on a hidden Astro+Vite runtime, it ships navigation, search, theming, llms.txt/llms-full.txt, per-page Markdown for agents, optional Ask AI, and a built-in MCP server for Claude Code/Cursor/VS Code. Requires Node.js 22.12+. Announced July 13–14, 2026; early adopters include Quiver and Neon.

PreScreening Notes
- Score: 5 / Priority: medium — OpenAI engineer releases Blume (OSS zero-config docs with llms.txt + MCP); niche but useful for agent-ready docs workflows.
- Minor OSS launch, recent, software+AI fit; MarkTechPost. Borderline — pass when-in-doubt.
- No duplicate. Pass.
