/llms.txt is the file that tells AI agents and LLMs how to read and cite your site. The llms.txt review in AmICited fetches yours and validates it, so you know it’s complete and doing its job.

The llms.txt review section of the Agent Accessibility audit

Tip
A complete, valid llms.txt makes it easier for AI engines to understand and surface your content — it’s one of the highest-leverage, lowest-effort agent-readiness fixes you can make.

Where to find it

It’s the llms.txt review section of Audit → Agent Accessibility. If you haven’t run it, you’ll see “No llms.txt review yet. Run a check to fetch and validate your /llms.txt,” with a Re-check now button.

How to use it

  1. Run the check. Click Re-check now to have AmICited fetch your /llms.txt and validate it.
  2. Read the results. The review tells you whether the file exists and whether it’s well-formed and complete.
  3. Fix and re-check. If it’s missing or incomplete, add or correct the file on your site, then run the check again.
  4. Confirm in the summary. A healthy result flips the llms.txt tile in the Agent Readiness Summary.

What a good llms.txt does

  • Points agents to your key content so they don’t have to guess what matters.
  • Clarifies how to cite you, improving your odds of being referenced correctly.
  • Signals that your site is agent-aware, which the readiness summary and competitor comparison both reward.

Re-run this whenever you change the file, and check the competitor comparison to see how your llms.txt stacks up against rivals'.
