That PR adds the ability to share metrics via unique, time-limited URLs. Users can click a Share button on the metrics page to create a point-in-time snapshot that can be viewed without authentication.

  • Documented how to create share links (3-step process)
  • Explained how shared metrics work:
    • Point-in-time snapshots (what's included)
    • No authentication required for viewers
    • 30-day default expiration

Source PR Details

  • Share button in the metrics page header
  • createMetricsShareToken mutation that captures current metrics
  • getSharedMetrics public query for unauthenticated access
  • New /metrics/share/[token] public page
  • Tokens expire after 30 days (configurable 1-90 days)

Could this be made more consise? Could hit all the important points in a couple sentences, e.g.

## Sharing Metrics

Click the **Share** button at [continue.dev/metrics](https://continue.dev/metrics) to create and copy a shareable read-only snapshot (not live) link of your agent metrics, which anyone can view for 30 days.

@RomneyDa it could, but it would be less effective.

Idk if you checked out the deploy preview. I know it seems like a lot of text but bc it's using the mintlify elements, it's not overwhelming to view. The accordion condenses the context so users can choose to learn more. It's also more GEO friendly.

I'm on the fence about the steps. It's a bit of overkill, but it's skimmable. Where a single condensed sentence is less skimmable. So, imo, it's a balance of content, context, and design to get the users and LLMs the info we want. But happy to hear if you feel the design is actually hindering discoverability.

excluding mintlify components: 210 words

suggestion: 30 words (85% reduction)

best: short sentence + image

This is non blocking taste feedback. Can't speak to GEO, only optimizing for humans.
