configure-llms-txt

Create a Markdown file at your domain root with an H1 project name, a blockquote summary, and sectioned links in the format '- [Title](url): one-sentence description'. Follow the llmstxt.org v2 structure with no HTML or promotional copy.

llms.txt is a small curated index of key documentation links kept within a tight token budget. llms-full.txt concatenates the full text of all primary documentation pages for LLMs that can ingest large context in one request.

No. Google Search explicitly ignores llms.txt, so it neither helps nor harms rankings. It serves agent consumers like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini, and should never be presented as an AI Overviews ranking lever.

In Next.js, create an app/llms.txt/route.ts handler returning the content with a text/plain header. In Astro, place llms.txt in the public/ directory, which is served directly at the domain root.

No. llms.txt manages discoverability only and is not a permissions file. Use robots.txt for access control, and optionally link your llms.txt from robots.txt to improve discoverability.

Add a CI workflow triggered on documentation changes that regenerates llms.txt, validates every linked URL resolves, and commits updates. Fail the build on stale manifests, broken links, or schema mismatches.
