`llms.txt` & `llms-full.txt` Standard (Pro)

Automate the generation of emerging AI discovery standards (/llms.txt and /llms-full.txt) directly from your WordPress content structure.

1. What is the `llms.txt` Standard?

llms.txt is a web standard proposal designed to provide Large Language Models and AI crawlers with a structured, high-signal index of a website's core documentation and content:

/llms.txt (Index Manifest): A concise overview containing your site's project title, summary, and organized markdown links to essential articles, guides, and pages.
/llms-full.txt (Full Corpus): A consolidated, continuous markdown text stream of all published articles for bulk AI ingestion or offline context training.

2. Automated Generation in WordPress

With the Pro add-on enabled, AI Markdown Generator automatically manages both files without requiring manual file uploads or static file edits:

Automated URL Discovery

The generator dynamically queries your published posts, pages, and enabled custom post types, generating standardized markdown links with post excerpts.

Auto-Discovery HTML Tags

The plugin injects standardized <link rel="alternate"> tags into your site's HTML header, allowing AI bots to automatically detect the manifest when visiting your homepage.

Intelligent Cache Layer

Both manifest files are cached in the local WordPress transient/disk store and automatically purged whenever a post is published, updated, or deleted.

3. Verifying llms.txt via curl

You can verify that the manifests are live using your terminal:

Terminal / Bash Verify Manifest Output

# Inspect the /llms.txt manifest
curl -i https://your-site.com/llms.txt

# Inspect the /llms-full.txt corpus
curl -i https://your-site.com/llms-full.txt

Expected Result

HTTP Status: 200 OK
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Formatted H1 header with site name and organized markdown list of post links.

Common Mistakes

Creating physical llms.txt files in the web root directory (a physical file will override WordPress rewrite rules).
Including non-public custom post types in the manifest.
