## Context & Motivation

https://llmstxt.org/ is a project from Answer.AI which proposes to "standardise on using an `/llms.txt` file to provide information to help LLMs use a website at inference time." 

I've noticed many tool providers begin to offer `/llms.txt` files for their websites and documentation. This includes developer tools and platforms like Perplexity, Anthropic, Hugging Face, Vercel, and others.

I've also come across https://directory.llmstxt.cloud/, a directory of websites that have `/llms.txt` files which is curated by these folks: https://x.com/llmsdottxt. I thought it would be fun to use this awesome resource to collect all of the files into a single dataset. They're simply markdown files. This dataset can then be used to build cool applications.

Thank you to Answer.AI and Jeremy Howard, the providers that are adopting this standard, and the maintainers of https://directory.llmstxt.cloud/. 

## How this dataset was made

[This is the notebook](https://www.kaggle.com/code/mrisdal/generate-a-dataset-of-llms-txt-files) that fetches files that linked to from https://directory.llmstxt.cloud/ and uses the `kagglehub` Python client library to publish the resulting output as this dataset. 

## Inspiration

* Give your LLM application access to this dataset to enhance its interactions with these tools, e.g., for code-generation tasks
* Search and knowledge retrieval
* Extract and summarize common developer tasks to generate novel benchmarks for LLM evaluation
* Validate the correctness of the llms.txt files

## Contributing

I'd love if anyone is interested in contributing to improving the notebook that extracts the `llms.txt` files. Leave a comment on this dataset or on the notebook. Feel free to also ping me with interesting demos or applications you create with this dataset.
