How to add llms.txt in Docusaurus
In Docusaurus, publish llms.txt as a static asset so production serves it at /llms.txt after build and deploy. Keep the file short: title, summary, and links to core documentation pages. Then confirm HTTP 200 on your live domain. Docusaurus makes static publishing straightforward, but usefulness still depends on crawl access and content quality.
If your docs site sits behind Cloudflare, check that AI crawlers are not challenged at the edge. A valid static file is not enough when a WAF blocks requests.
