llms.txt

Definition

llms.txt is an emerging standard for declaring to AI agents which URLs on a site contain the most important content for them to read. It is conceptually similar to robots.txt and sitemap.xml but written in clean markdown with one URL per line under topical headings. The file sits at the root of the domain (example.com/llms.txt).

Spacemen Digital's position: Every brand under our retainer publishes an llms.txt. See ours at spacemendigital.com/llms.txt.
