Question 1

What is llms.txt?

Accepted Answer

It is a proposed Markdown file at the root of a site that gives language models a short guide to the site: a title, a summary and links to the most useful pages. It is meant to be easy for both people and models to read.

Question 2

Which parts of the file are required?

Accepted Answer

Only the title, a heading with the site or project name. The summary, extra text and link sections are optional, though a summary and a few sections make the file more useful.

Question 3

Where does llms.txt go?

Accepted Answer

At the root of your domain, for example example.com/llms.txt, served as plain text or Markdown. Each subdomain would need its own file.

Question 4

Will llms.txt improve my AI search visibility?

Accepted Answer

It is a proposal, not a standard that search engines follow, and no major AI assistant has said it relies on the file. It is cheap to publish and some tools and developer docs read it, but do not expect it to change rankings or citations by itself.
