Source: https://agentreadyhtml.com/llms-txt-index/readthedocs-io/ Site: Agent Ready HTML Last reviewed: 2026-11-05 # readthedocs.io llms.txt In short readthedocs.io serves a 7.0 KB llms.txt with 5 H2 sections and 40 links, graded C on the llmstxt.org structure (4 of 6 checks). It lacks a blockquote summary and same-site links. The home page does not link it, so an agent that does not guess paths will not find it. An llms-full.txt is served too.

Ora's cached score: not scored (read 5 November 2026). ## The parse readthedocs.io lists 40 links: 2 point at readthedocs.io or a relative path, 32 point elsewhere. The hosts it links most: about.readthedocs.com (22), app.readthedocs.com (4), app.readthedocs.org (4), docs.readthedocs.io (2). | H2 section | Links | | --- | --- | | For engineering and docs teams | 1 | | For open source projects | 5 | | Catch doc regressions before you merge | 0 | | Decide who sees your docs | 3 | | Upgrade your documentation with Read the Docs | 5 | ## Grade against the llmstxt.org structure The file passes 4 of 6 checks and fails 2: has a blockquote summary under the h1; at least 80 percent of links point at the same site. 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 | Pass | H1: Your Documentation Infrastructure Layer | | Has a blockquote summary under the H1 | Fail | No blockquote summary before the first H2. | | Has at least one H2 section that lists links | Pass | 5 H2 sections, 4 with links. | | At least 80 percent of links point at the same site | Fail | 2 of 34 links stay on readthedocs.io (6 percent). | | Under 100 KB | Pass | 7136 bytes as served. | | Plain markdown, no HTML | Pass | No HTML document markers in the body. | ## Ora's cached score Not scored by Ora. GET ora.ai/api/score/readthedocs.io answered 404 DOMAIN\_NOT\_SCANNED on 5 November 2026, so Ora holds no cached score for this domain. This site asked for a cached score only and never requested a scan. A scan by the site's owner would add one. ## Linking and the companion file The home page of readthedocs.io 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. An llms-full.txt is served at the same root. ## How it compares At 7.0 KB the file is larger than 47 percent of the 2,529 plain-text llms.txt files in this edition, and its 40 links put it ahead of 54 percent of them on link count. The home page declares a Pelican generator. Size bucket: 2 to 10 KB. Tranco rank 890. Category: Top 10,000, no category. Live file: [https://readthedocs.io/llms.txt](https://readthedocs.io/llms.txt).
