Setup

1. Install it:

   pip install sphinx-llm-friendly

2. Add it to extensions in conf.py:

   extensions = [
       # …
       "sphinx_llm_friendly",
   ]

3. Build your documentation:

   sphinx-llm-friendly build docs docs/_build

   The output is in docs/_build/all.

   It runs the html, llm_markdown and llm_singlemarkdown builders in parallel, into subdirectories of docs/_build, and merges their output. In the Markdown output, links to sites from intersphinx_mapping that serve Markdown point to the Markdown version of their pages.

   From Python, call sphinx_llm_friendly.build(source_dir, build_dir), which returns the output directory.

Configuration

llm_friendly_exclude

List of patterns, with the syntax of exclude_patterns, of documents to leave out of the Markdown output and llms.txt. Default: [].

llm_friendly_llms_txt_summary

Summary for llms.txt. Default: the first paragraph of the root document.

llm_friendly_llms_txt_toctree_only

If True, llms.txt only lists documents reachable through toctrees from the root document. Default: False.

Nodes from third-party extensions need Markdown handlers, registered with app.add_node() for the llm_markdown and llm_singlemarkdown builders.
