What Is the llms.txt HTTP Status Checker?

This checker requests a website’s root /llms.txt endpoint and reports the HTTP response code. It helps distinguish a successful file response from a missing file, access restriction, redirect or server failure.

Understanding Common Status Codes

200 means the server returned a successful response, 404 means the file was not found, 401/403 indicates restricted access and 5xx codes indicate a server-side failure. A successful code is also checked for HTML fallbacks and empty responses.

Why the Final URL Matters

Redirects can move a request away from the intended resource. The final URL and content type help determine whether the response is still a real llms.txt file or an unrelated homepage.

Questions you might have

What HTTP status should llms.txt return?
A public llms.txt file should normally return HTTP 200 with a text-based content type.
Why does my missing file return 200?
Some sites return the homepage for every unknown path. The checker flags HTML responses so they are not mistaken for a valid text file.
Are redirects always a problem?
No. A redirect is acceptable when the final URL still serves the intended llms.txt resource.
What does HTTP 403 mean?
The server understood the request but refused access, often because of permissions, firewall rules or bot protection.
Does this tool validate Markdown?
No. Use the llms.txt Validator after confirming the endpoint responds successfully.
