No llms.txt file observed (optional convention)
llms.txt is a proposed Markdown convention for giving agents a concise overview and links to useful website content. This check did not observe the file at the requested path. It is optional and is separate from robots.txt and sitemap.xml.
Why this matters
A maintained file may be useful to a client that explicitly supports this proposal. Its absence does not establish a Google Search problem or a measured loss of AI mentions. This check does not measure whether an answer engine reads the file or cites the business.
How to fix it
No file is required solely for Google Search visibility. If a documented agent workflow benefits from llms.txt, publish accurate links to the content that workflow needs, keep them current and test the client. Measure actual referral or citation outcomes separately.
