I agree with this, but this would require a more substantial update of the documentation. Not against it – let's decide on which pages we want to include in the file, once approved, I can update them to include the |

Replace flat sitemap
llms.txtwith curated, AI-optimized indexSummary
This PR replaces the auto-generated flat sitemap
llms.txtwith a curated, categorized index optimized for LLM consumption. Both versions are generated via@vuepress/plugin-llms— the difference is that we now supply custom template getters (getLlmsPluginOptions()) to filter, deduplicate, organize, and describe pages instead of dumping everything into a single flat list.The exhaustive dump is preserved as
llms-full.txtand cross-referenced from the new file's header. Per-page markdown (llms-page.txt) continues to generate as before.Why this matters
When an LLM (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, etc.) ingests
llms.txt— whether via an agent fetch, RAG pipeline, or IDE integration — the file's quality directly determines whether the model can find the right content, for the right version, without wasting context window tokens.The old file made this nearly impossible. The new file makes it straightforward.
What changed
Implementation
A new
getLlmsPluginOptions()function provides custom template getters for 15 sections of the curatedllms.txt. The code is organized around four reusable factory helpers:createSlugOrderSectioncreatePrefixSectioncreateFilterSectioncreateFilterSlugOrderSectionAdditional helpers:
matchIndexSlug— reusable predicate for matching index/overview pages (e.g.,/quick-start/or/quick-start/index)getPageDescription— extracts description from frontmatter or auto-excerptnormalizeIndexUrl— fixes broken/.mdURLs to/index.mdKey design decisions:
versioning.latestdetermines the server prefix; the Kubernetes operator version is resolved fromversioning.versions. No hardcoded version strings.createFilterSectioncan pass asortBycomparator for deterministic output regardless of VuePress page order.http-apipaths, so this page appears only under APIs.The plugin is configured with all three output modes:

Sections are ordered by importance for LLM comprehension — understanding what the product is, then how to use it, then how to operate it:

How the generation works
Description priority: frontmatter
description→ auto-excerpt → omitted. Descriptions improve automatically as authors adddescriptionto page frontmatter.Scenario walkthrough
"How do I append events using the Python client?"
Python – Appending eventswith description"How do I get started with Kurrent Cloud?"
"How do I deploy KurrentDB on Kubernetes?"
Limitations and known issues
1. Descriptions are auto-generated excerpts, not hand-written summaries
Most descriptions come from VuePress's auto-excerpt (~first 200 characters). This causes:
Auto-Scavenge: Auto-Scavenge,Redaction: Redaction...using thi...Backup and restore: Backup and restore Backing up...Kafka Sink,Elasticsearch Sink(no description)Mitigation: The generator prioritizes frontmatter
description. Adding it to any page immediately improves the output:2. Community section is hardcoded
Community links are static strings rather than VuePress-derived data. Fine for rarely-changing URLs, but requires a code change if any URL changes.
