Solution Notebook: llms.txt Compliance

llms.txt Compliance

Deploys standard sitemap indexing rules to target agent retrievals cleanly.

BUILD STATUS: Operational
RESEARCH STATUS: Baseline Collection
EVIDENCE STATUS: Baseline measured

What This Is

A sitemap indexing framework that creates machine-readable indexes at `/llms.txt` and `/llms-full.txt` at the domain root, containing contextual descriptions of core routes.

What Exists Today

• Configured `/llms.txt` maps at root.
• llms.txt Linter formatting check engine.

What It Is Intended to Do

Designed to format domain indexing paths so autonomous agents and search scraper crawlers digest site structures cleanly, reducing token overhead cost during crawlings.

What We Are Measuring

• Bot request counts targeting `/llms.txt` compared to standard sitemap XML path queries.

Current Evidence

Trial Status: Baseline collection active.
Observations: Crawlers access llms.txt at an observed frequency; specific influence on search ranking weights is not isolated.
Limitations: Many AI crawlers do not disclose user-agent parameters, obscuring crawl tracking logs.

What We Cannot Yet Claim

We do not claim that deploying llms.txt compliance guarantees immediate AI indexing or eliminates search scraper costs.
