LLMS.txt

SolidBase can generate an llms.txt index plus markdown versions of your routes for LLM tooling, AI assistants, and other machine-readable documentation consumers.

Enable the feature

Turn it on with the llms option in your SolidBase config:

import { createSolidBase, defineTheme } from "@kobalte/solidbase/config";
import defaultTheme from "@kobalte/solidbase/default-theme";

const theme = defineTheme({
  componentsPath: import.meta.resolve("./src/solidbase-theme"),
  extends: defaultTheme,
});

const solidBase = createSolidBase(theme);

export default {
  ...solidBase.startConfig({
    ssr: true,
  }),
  plugins: [
    solidBase.plugin({
      title: "My Docs",
      description: "Documentation for my project",
      llms: true,
      themeConfig: {
        sidebar: {
          "/": [
            {
              title: "Guide",
              items: [
                { title: "Getting Started", link: "/guide/getting-started" },
              ],
            },
          ],
        },
      },
    }),
  ],
};

Once enabled, the build emits:

• llms.txt at the site root
• one .md file per markdown route, such as index.md and guide/getting-started.md

Default theme page actions

When you use the default theme, enabling llms: true also adds a page-level copy button that copies the generated markdown for the current page.

solidBase.plugin({
  llms: true,
});

The button uses the same generated .md output that powers llms.txt, so the copied content stays aligned with the markdown artifacts emitted by the build.

If you're building a custom theme, you can reuse the same behavior from the client API instead of copying the default theme implementation:

import { useCopyPageMarkdown } from "@kobalte/solidbase/client";

The hook exposes copy state, in-flight state, and page eligibility so custom themes can provide their own UI while keeping the same LLMS-backed behavior.

What goes into llms.txt

SolidBase builds the index from your docs metadata:

• the document title comes from frontmatter title
• the description comes from frontmatter description
• the list order follows themeConfig.sidebar when a sidebar is configured
• if no sidebar is available, SolidBase falls back to a flat list of discovered documents

The generated links point to the emitted markdown files, for example /guide/getting-started.md.

Generated markdown output

Each emitted markdown file is derived from the source route and passed through the document markdown pipeline. That means:

• frontmatter metadata is removed from the final file
• inline frontmatter expressions like {frontmatter.title} are rendered to plain text when possible
• markdown transforms such as [[toc]], imported code snippets, and GitHub-style alerts are preserved in the generated document output

Excluding pages

You can keep individual pages out of the LLMS output with page frontmatter:

---
title: About
llms:
  exclude: true
---

You can also disable it entirely for a page with llms: false.
