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 | Pass | H1: The Motley Fool | | Has a blockquote summary under the H1 | Pass | Blockquote summary found. | | Has at least one H2 section that lists links | Pass | 2 H2 sections, 2 with links. | | At least 80 percent of links point at the same site | Pass | 17 of 17 links stay on fool.com (100 percent). | | Under 100 KB | Pass | 1946 bytes as served. | | Plain markdown, no HTML | Pass | No HTML document markers in the body. | ## Ora's cached score Ora's cached report for fool.com gives it **48 of 100, grade C**, scanned on 13 September 2026.

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. No llms-full.txt was found at the same root. ## How it compares At 1.9 KB the file is larger than 8 percent of the 2,529 plain-text llms.txt files in this edition, and its 17 links put it ahead of 29 percent of them on link count.
