1 section, 3,136 links, no Optional section.

Ora's cached score: 79, grade B, scanned 2 November 2026.

## The parse

The crawl recorded 3,136 links in the whole 724 KB file but kept only its first 60 KB, which is what is parsed here. In that part, 233 links appear: 233 point at zendesk.com or a relative path, 0 point elsewhere. The hosts it links most: zendesk.com (233).

| H2 section | Links |
| --- | --- |
| Blog | 232 |

## Grade against the llmstxt.org structure

The file passes 5 of 6 checks and fails 1: under 100 kb. 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: Zendesk.com |
| 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 | 233 of 233 links stay on zendesk.com (100 percent). |

| Plain markdown, no HTML | Pass | No HTML document markers in the body. |

## Ora's cached score

Ora's cached report for zendesk.com gives it **79 of 100, grade B**, scanned on 2 November 2026. Its Access layer, which holds the read-layer checks below, scored 50 of 61 check points. Read from GET ora.ai/api/score/zendesk.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 zendesk.com](https://ora.ai/score/zendesk.com?utm_source=agentreadyhtml.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=index-entry) has every layer.

## Linking and the companion file

The home page of zendesk.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. No llms-full.txt was found at the same root.

## How it compares

At 724 KB the file is larger than 99 percent of the 2,529 plain-text llms.txt files in this edition, and its 3,136 links put it ahead of 99 percent of them on link count. The home page declares no generator. Size bucket: 100 KB and over. Tranco rank 340. Category: Communication & Support.
