/llms.txt was a 404. This publishes a curated index of the site for anything reading it to answer a question.

A route rather than a file in Public, for the same reason robots.txt and the sitemap are: the origin has to be the host that served it, or a self-hosted relay would hand out links to somebody else's server.

All 21 linked URLs verified 200 with matching titles before publishing. It repeats the two caveats that matter rather than burying them: the iPhone app is a TestFlight beta and not an App Store release, and no independent audit has been done.

No lab has confirmed that any crawler actually reads llms.txt, so this is cheap insurance and a curated index, not a ranking lever.

Tests: 697, 0 failures.
