281
+ ## Roadmap and vision
282
+
283
+ The [`llms.txt`](https://llmstxt.org/) spec is still young and un-opinionated. Some packages and some documentation-sites already ship an `llms.txt` file, others don’t, and the ones that do sometimes invent their own markdown dialect.
284
+
285
+ As adoption grows we expect the format to stabilise, turning “antigenic-coding” into a first-class workflow.
286
+
287
+ ### Specifying `llms.txt`
288
+
289
+ Today the cleanest way to publish documentation with an `llms.txt` is to add an `"llms"` key to `package.json`:
290
+
291
+ ```json
292
+ "llms": "./README.txt"
293
+ ```
294
+
295
+ When the registry starts indexing that field we’ll be able to fetch the *exact* documentation that and feed it into the coding-agent's context. (this will also require the URLs for fetching documentation versions to be standardized)
296
+
297
+ Example: [zod](https://github.com/colinhacks/zod/blob/main/packages/zod/package.json#L75)
298
+
299
+ ### Practical integration
300
+
301
+ Because the format is still fluid, treat `llms.txt` as *best-effort* documentation:
302
+
303
+ - 90 % of the time an agent can slurp the file directly.
304
+ - If it’s 25k tokens or more, you might want to fall back to a cache, a RAG layer, or a service such as [Context7](https://context7.com/). (AI-agents such have a limit on the file sizes they're willing to read, and will truncate the file to fit their context window)
305
+
306
+ ### Why this will matter tomorrow
307
+
308
+ Vibe-coded apps are about to become legacy and enter a maintenance phase. When that happens, ai coding-agents will need the docs for **old** versions of the packages. `llms.txt` is the lowest-friction way to provide the ai with the correct documentation.
309
+
310
+ External services (like Context7) are great, but bundling the required context is simpler, cheaper.
