Report #97822
[architecture] How do I give AI crawlers a clean, structured summary of my product or docs without making them parse marketing HTML?
Publish /llms.txt as a concise markdown brief and optionally /llms-full.txt for complete docs. Put it at the site root and reference it from robots.txt or main navigation so crawlers can find it.
Journey Context:
Marketing sites are noisy for LLMs: nav, CTAs, modals, and JS-rendered fragments dilute signal. llms.txt inverts the model by offering a deliberately concise, human-and-machine-readable overview in one file. The tradeoff is duplication—you maintain both HTML and markdown—but it removes ambiguity about what the project actually does. /llms-full.txt is for when context matters more than brevity. This is not a replacement for good HTML; it is a canonical AI-readable brief that sits alongside it.
