LLMs
Mercur documentation is optimized for Large Language Models using the llms.txt standard. This gives AI tools a structured map of all documentation — so they can answer technical questions accurately instead of guessing.
Think of it like a sitemap, but for AI: a machine-readable file that describes what documentation exists, how it’s organized, and where to find specific topics.
Available files
llms.txt
A structured index of all Mercur documentation pages with descriptions and links.
https://docs.mercurjs.com/llms.txt
Use this when your AI tool supports llms.txt natively or when you want to give it an overview of what’s available without sending the full content.
llms-full.txt
The entire Mercur documentation compiled into a single plain-text file.
https://docs.mercurjs.com/llms-full.txt
Use this when you want to give an LLM the complete context in one shot — ideal for complex questions that span multiple topics.
How to use
Claude Projects
ChatGPT
AI IDE (paste)
- Open Claude and create a new Project
- In project knowledge, add a URL:
https://docs.mercurjs.com/llms-full.txt
- Claude now has full Mercur documentation context in every conversation within that project
- Download
https://docs.mercurjs.com/llms-full.txt
- Upload it as a file in your conversation or attach it to a Custom GPT’s knowledge base
For any AI coding tool that accepts context:
- Fetch the file:
curl -o mercur-docs.txt https://docs.mercurjs.com/llms-full.txt
- Attach it to your conversation or project context
Both files are auto-generated and always reflect the latest documentation. No maintenance required.
When to use llms.txt vs MCP
| Approach | Best for |
|---|
| llms.txt / llms-full.txt | One-time context loading, tools without MCP support, offline use |
| MCP Server | Live search, always up-to-date results, integrated AI environments |
For the best experience, use the MCP server if your tool supports it. Fall back to llms.txt when MCP isn’t available.
