Fill in your brand name, summary, and the top 3-4 collections you want AI assistants to surface. The generator produces a Shopify-specific llms.txt that welcomes crawlers into /collections/, /products/, /pages/ and /blogs/ while blocking /cart, /checkout, /account, /apps/ and the faceted junk URLs Shopify generates by default. Copy the output and follow the upload instructions below.
Why Shopify needs its own template
Checkout leaks session state. /cart and /checkout URLs hold session tokens and should never be cached or quoted by AI answers.
Account paths leak PII. /account and /orders are per-customer pages. Crawlers shouldn't get near them even if they return 302.
Filters create URL noise. ?filter=size:large and ?sort_by=price generate thousands of near-duplicate URLs. Blocking these saves crawler budget for the pages that matter.
Collections beat homepage. When a user asks "best base layers", a link to /collections/base-layers/ is a better landing page than the homepage. The template tells crawlers this explicitly.
How to install on Shopify
1. Shopify does not let you upload /llms.txt directly
Shopify's file system doesn't expose /llms.txt at the root by default. You need to use the Online Store → Themes → Edit code approach or a redirect rule.
2. Option 1: Theme file + redirect
In your theme, create a template called page.llms-txt.liquid with just the plain text content (no HTML wrapper). Create a page called llms-txt that uses this template, then add a URL redirect from /llms.txt to /pages/llms-txt in Online Store → Navigation → URL Redirects.
3. Option 2: Use a Shopify app
Apps like 'LLMs.txt Manager' handle the root-level file hosting for you. Install, paste the content, save.
4. Verify after deploy
Run curl -I https://your-store.myshopify.com/llms.txt and confirm HTTP 200 with Content-Type: text/plain. If it returns 301, follow the redirect chain and check the final URL.
