#482 Serve llms.txt (and llms-full.txt) for AI engines and agents

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: athanclark

/llms.txt and /llms-full.txt return 404. AI engines other than Google, and agents fetching pages for users, read these files when they find them. Google doesn't need them, and they cost nothing.

Wanted:

• /llms.txt (llmstxt.org): the site's name and one-sentence definition, who it's for, and links with one line each. The links: the FAQ, the guide, /for and its audience pages, the API reference (/docs/api) and its OpenAPI (/api/openapi.json), download, licensing, and a few public timelines. Generated from the help index and the landing settings, so it follows the docs. Each server serves its own, with its own name and origin.
• /llms-full.txt (optional): the help documents' text in one file, generated at build time.
• Discovery: linked from the footer, or <link rel="alternate" type="text/plain" href="/llms.txt"> in the home page's head. Agents mostly find these files through links rather than by guessing the address.
• Sitemap: listed in pages.xml.

Found in an AI-search audit of timescale.info on 2026-11-06.
