Generate llms.txt files to help AI systems better understand your WordPress site content, improving visibility in AI-powered search results.

== Description ==

AI Content Guide generates llms.txt files for your WordPress site, helping AI systems like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity better understand your content.

Based on the [llms.txt specification](https://llmstxt.org/), this plugin creates a standardized file that provides AI systems with a structured overview of your website, improving how your content appears in AI-generated responses.

### Key Features

* **Automatic File Generation**: Creates and maintains llms.txt files based on your site content
* **SEO Integration**: Works with popular SEO plugins like Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, and SEOPress
* **Content Control**: Choose which post types, pages, and taxonomies to include
* **Full AI Optimization**: Generates both standard llms.txt and comprehensive llms-full.txt files
* **Robots.txt Integration**: Optionally adds references to your llms.txt file in robots.txt
* **Custom Content**: Add additional information to your llms.txt file to better guide AI systems
* **Performance Optimized**: Lightweight with minimal impact on site speed
* **Developer Friendly**: Includes hooks and filters for customization

### Why llms.txt Matters

As AI-powered search becomes increasingly important, having an llms.txt file is like having robots.txt for AI systems. It helps ensure:

1. **Better Visibility**: Improves your content's discoverability in AI-generated responses
2. **Accurate Citations**: Helps AI systems correctly reference your content
3. **Competitive Edge**: Positions your site for the emerging AI-powered search landscape
4. **SEO Complement**: Works alongside your existing SEO strategies

### How It Works

The plugin analyzes your WordPress content and generates a structured markdown file that follows the llms.txt specification. This file is made available at the root of your website (e.g., yoursite.com/llms.txt) where AI systems can access it.

The plugin automatically respects your SEO settings, excluding content marked as "noindex" and using your meta descriptions for better content summaries.

### Privacy & Data

This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All processing happens locally on your server. The generated llms.txt file contains only the public content you choose to include.
