Overview

How llm.energy works.

Quick Start

Visit llm.energy and enter any documentation URL to get started immediately!


Supported Standards

llm.energy supports two complementary standards for LLM-friendly documentation:

llms.txt Standard

Many documentation sites provide their content in a machine-readable format at /llms.txt or /llms-full.txt. This format is designed for AI consumption.

Endpoint Description
/llms.txt Concise version
/llms-full.txt Complete documentation

install.md Standard

The install.md standard provides structured installation instructions that LLMs can execute autonomously.

Endpoint Description
/install.md LLM-executable installation guide
/docs/install.md Alternative location

install.md files include:

  • OBJECTIVE: What the installation should achieve
  • DONE WHEN: Success criteria
  • TODO: Checklist of tasks
  • Steps: Detailed instructions with code blocks

How It Works

flowchart LR
    A[Enter URL] --> B[Fetch llms.txt]
    B --> C[Fetch install.md]
    C --> D[Parse Content]
    D --> E[Generate Files]
    E --> F[Download]

1. Fetch

Fetch Strategy

llm.energy intelligently searches multiple locations:

  1. {url}/llms-full.txt (complete documentation)
  2. Falls back to {url}/llms.txt if full version unavailable
  3. {url}/install.md (installation instructions)
  4. Also checks /docs/install.md and docs.{domain}/install.md

2. Parse

Content is split into sections based on markdown headers:

  • ## headers become document boundaries
  • Each section becomes its own .md file
  • Filenames are generated from section titles

Smart Parsing

The parser preserves code blocks, tables, and formatting while intelligently splitting content.

3. Generate

Four types of output:

File Description
*.md Individual section files
llms-full.md Consolidated document with TOC
AGENT-GUIDE.md Instructions for AI assistants
install.md Installation instructions (if available)

Ready for AI

All output files are optimized for AI consumption with clear structure and metadata.


Supported Sites

Any site that provides /llms.txt or /llms-full.txt will work:
