Report #1264

[architecture] Agent cannot synthesize project context from scattered HTML documentation

Host a \`/llms.txt\` file at the site root in the llmstxt.org format: an H1 project name, a blockquote summary, then H2 sections of curated markdown links, and use \`.md\` sidecar URLs for every important doc page. Keep the \`Optional\` section for low-priority detail.

Journey Context:
LLMs hit context-window limits when asked to ingest full websites; sitemaps are exhaustive but uncurated; \`/robots.txt\` only controls crawl access. The \`/llms.txt\` proposal gives a compact, human- and LLM-readable table of contents. A common mistake is dumping raw HTML or every link; instead curate a reading list and provide clean markdown equivalents so agents can fetch only what matters. The \`Optional\` section lets callers trade completeness for token cost.
