What does the llms.txt cache freshness checker compare?

It compares pasted origin llms.txt content against a pasted cached or directory copy, extracts URLs, and reports which required URLs are missing from the cached copy.

Does llms.txt guarantee search or AI referral traffic?

No. The checker treats llms.txt as an emerging machine-readable discovery file. It helps verify freshness, but it does not guarantee ranking, crawling, citations, or referral traffic.

Does this tool fetch or store my llms.txt file?

No. The comparison runs in the browser from text pasted by the visitor. The page sends only sanitized same-origin aggregate traffic beacons like other indexable pages on this site.

LLMS.txt Cache Freshness Checker

Compare your live origin `llms.txt` with a cached directory copy, find missing priority URLs, and copy a compact freshness report for launch or crawl-review notes.

Compare files Sources Deployment QA Launch notes

Disclosure: `llms.txt` is an emerging discovery convention, not a guaranteed ranking, citation, or traffic signal. This browser-only checker compares pasted text and does not upload origin or cached files.

Use Case

Check whether a directory, repository, or cached copy has picked up new priority URLs after a sitemap, `llms.txt`, or content release.

Freshness Signal

Missing required URLs, mismatched sitemap references, changed titles, and origin-only URLs are stronger signals than a simple HTTP 200.

Output

A Markdown report and CSV row you can paste into launch notes, crawler-lag reviews, or directory approval tracking.

Privacy

The comparison uses text already pasted into the page. No remote fetch is required, which avoids CORS, rate-limit, and private-site surprises.

Reference Files

The original `llms.txt` proposal describes a Markdown file at the site root that points language models toward useful content. Treat it as a readable map, not a crawler-control guarantee.

Directory Cache Checks

LLMS Central documents public read endpoints for search, domain `llms.txt` retrieval, and direct `/{domain}/llms.txt` access. This checker gives you a no-account way to compare those copies manually.
