How to Make Your Site Agent-Friendly with llmfeed.json
AI agents and LLMs are becoming the new way to discover and interact with web content.
If you want your website, your API, your project โ or your entire ecosystem โ to be properly understood and trusted by these agents, you need to expose a clear, reliable llmfeed.json.
This article explains how.
Why llmfeed.json?
llmfeed.json is the emerging standard format to declare:
โ
What your content is
โ
Who it is intended for
โ
How it should be used
โ
What level of trust and certification it carries
It is part of the open Model Context Protocol (MCP), but its goal is simple:
help LLMs and agents reliably interact with your site.
How AI Agents Discover Trusted Content
Modern LLM-based agents (ChatGPT, DeepSearch, Perplexity AI, Claude, and more) look for:
- Clear canonical URLs
- Structured metadata
- Trust / signature indicators
- Usage guidance
- Certification signals
llmfeed.json provides exactly this โ in a format made for agents.
The llmfeed.json Family of Feeds
When you expose a .well-known/
directory on your site, you can include:
File | Purpose |
---|---|
mcp.llmfeed.json | Main declaration of your site's agent-facing context |
llm-index.llmfeed.json | Index of available llmfeed.json files |
capabilities.llmfeed.json | Declares API capabilities or interactive features |
manifesto.llmfeed.json | Declares your intent, ethics, or license principles |
Prompt files | Contextual guidance for agent interactions |
Example: https://wellknownmcp.org/.well-known/
Agent Guidance & Agent Behavior
The MCP specification also defines two powerful concepts:
These are not standalone feeds, but specification documents that can be expressed inside your mcp.llmfeed.json
or in prompt feeds.
They help agents:
โ
understand how to behave
โ
respect your intentions
โ
avoid misuse or hallucination

Implementing llmfeed.json: A Practical Checklist
1๏ธโฃ Expose an llm-index.llmfeed.json
- Make it easy for agents to discover your feeds
2๏ธโฃ Implement a mcp.llmfeed.json
- Include:
feed_type
metadata
trust
(signed blocks)- References to agent_guidance / agent_behavior if applicable
3๏ธโฃ Add other feeds as needed:
capabilities.llmfeed.json
manifesto.llmfeed.json
- Prompt files for agent interactions
4๏ธโฃ Sign your feeds
- Use the
trust
block to sign with a known certificate - Optionally seek certification via llmca.org
Example: wellknownmcp.org
At wellknownmcp.org, we expose:
File | URL |
---|---|
mcp.llmfeed.json | link |
llm-index.llmfeed.json | link |
capabilities.llmfeed.json | link |
manifesto.llmfeed.json | link |
And we follow:
Conclusion: The Agentic Web Starts with llmfeed.json
If you want AI agents to truly understand and trust your content,
if you want to control how your site is represented,
if you want to open the door to the agentic web โ
Start with llmfeed.json.
Itโs simple. Open. Powerful. Already adopted.
And itโs your best first step into the future of AI-driven interoperability.
