# docs.cursor.com llms.txt

In short

docs.cursor.com answers a request for /llms.txt with an HTML page, not a file, so it gets grade F on the llmstxt.org structure. An agent that follows a link there reads a web page, not an index. Read 4 November 2026 with a plain-fetch client from the Tranco-ranked crawl universe or the curated list.

**llms.txt** served an HTML page

```markdown
No file to show: the URL returned an HTML page.
```

Nothing was stored for this URL.

**Parse** graded F, 0 of 6

file: https://docs.cursor.com/llms.txt

No H1 in the file.

No blockquote summary.

0 sections, 0 links, no Optional section.

Ora's cached score: 42, grade D, scanned 4 September 2026.

## The parse

docs.cursor.com lists 0 links: 0 point at cursor.com or a relative path, 0 point elsewhere. The hosts it links most: none.

The file has no H2 sections.

## Grade against the llmstxt.org structure

The URL returned an HTML page, so it fails every structure check. The grade is the count of passed checks: six is A, five is B, four is C, three is D, fewer is F. It measures structure only. Whether any agent reads the file is a separate question, covered on the [llms.txt reference](https://agentreadyhtml.com/llms-txt/).

| Check | Result | Detail |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Starts with an H1 naming the site or project | Fail | No H1 line found. |
| Has a blockquote summary under the H1 | Fail | No blockquote summary before the first H2. |
| Has at least one H2 section that lists links | Fail | 0 H2 sections, 0 with links. |
| At least 80 percent of links point at the same site | Fail | No links to test. |
| Under 100 KB | Fail | 585031 bytes as served. |
| Plain markdown, no HTML | Fail | The body is an HTML page. |

## Ora's cached score

Ora's cached report for docs.cursor.com gives it **42 of 100, grade D**, scanned on 4 September 2026. Its Access layer, which holds the read-layer checks below, scored 26 of 59 check points. Read from GET ora.ai/api/score/docs.cursor.com on 5 November 2026. The score is Ora's, not this site's, and the structure grade above is a different measure: it grades the llms.txt file against the llmstxt.org proposal, while Ora's score covers the whole site. [Ora's report for docs.cursor.com](https://ora.ai/score/docs.cursor.com?utm_source=agentreadyhtml.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=index-entry) has every layer.

## Linking and the companion file

The home page of docs.cursor.com does not link the file in its HTML. Ora's lab found (2026-10-19) that 86 percent of llms.txt fetches by agents arrived through a link, so an unlinked file is mostly a file nobody opens.

## How it compares

At 571 KB the file is larger than 99 percent of the 2,529 plain-text llms.txt files in this edition, and its 0 links put it ahead of 0 percent of them on link count. The home page declares no generator. Size bucket: 100 KB and over. Curated example. Category: Developer tool.

Why it is in the index: Counter-example: redirects to an HTML docs page that returns 200. Owner as listed: Cursor.
