Source: https://agentreadyhtml.com/llms-txt-index/tailscale-com/ Site: Agent Ready HTML Last reviewed: 2026-11-05 # tailscale.com llms.txt In short tailscale.com serves a 415 B llms.txt with 1 H2 section and 1 link, graded A on the llmstxt.org structure (6 of 6 checks). It passes every check. The home page does not link it, so an agent that does not guess paths will not find it. No llms-full.txt was found.

The hosts it links most: tailscale.com (1). | H2 section | Links | | --- | --- | | Docs | 1 | ## Grade against the llmstxt.org structure The file passes all six checks. 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: Tailscale | | Has a blockquote summary under the H1 | Pass | Blockquote summary found. | | Has at least one H2 section that lists links | Pass | 1 H2 section, 1 with links. | | At least 80 percent of links point at the same site | Pass | 1 of 1 links stay on tailscale.com (100 percent). | | Under 100 KB | Pass | 415 bytes as served. | | Plain markdown, no HTML | Pass | No HTML document markers in the body. | ## Ora's cached score Ora's cached report for tailscale.com gives it **69 of 100, grade C**, scanned on 22 September 2026. Its Access layer, which holds the read-layer checks below, scored 36 of 59 check points. Read from GET ora.ai/api/score/tailscale.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 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 415 B the file is larger than 1 percent of the 2,529 plain-text llms.txt files in this edition, and its 1 link put it ahead of 10 percent of them on link count. The home page declares no generator. Size bucket: Under 2 KB. Tranco rank 926. Category: Infrastructure. Live file: [https://tailscale.com/llms.txt](https://tailscale.com/llms.txt).
