Summary
AI coding agents like Codex, Cursor, and Claude struggle with human-written docs, often guessing and producing broken code. The llms.txt standard, proposed by Answer.AI's Jeremy Howard, provides a public, text-first Markdown index at a canonical URL to guide agents to installation guides, API references, examples, and migration notes. Major platforms including OpenAI, Anthropic, Cloudflare, Stripe, and Vercel have adopted it, and tools like Mintlify auto-generate it, reducing agent hallucinations and keeping AI-generated code correct.
