Enable tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude to quickly understand your documentation.
What is llms.txt?
LLMs.txt is an emerging standard so that websites can easily expose information to AI developer tools.
LLMs thrive on concise, structured information, and llms.txt
help them locate and interpret key information in your developer documentation with ease.
No configuration required—your llms.txt
files are automatically generated and maintained, just like a sitemap.xml
or robots.txt
.
llms.txt
- Small and fast: Quick to load and easy to parse.
- Summary-focused: Each page distilled into a one-sentence description with its URL.
- Structured for AI: Helps tools understand the overall structure of your documentation.
