agents.md and llms.txt

What these files are, what Idex’s agents.md draft includes, and how to add it to your theme.

Shopify serves an /agents.md file for every store, which AI agents can read to learn about it. By default, /llms.txt shows the same content. Idex can draft a fuller version from your collections and policies. It’s optional.

What the draft includes

  • your store name and the first sentence of its description,
  • up to six of your collections, each with a link and a short description,
  • links to your returns, shipping and contact information.

You’ll find it on Schema & AI files. It’s rebuilt each time you open the page, so it always reflects your current collections.

Add it to your store

It takes about three minutes:

  1. On Schema & AI files, press Copy on the agents.md draft.
  2. In Shopify admin, open Online Store › Themes, then Edit code on your live theme.
  3. Under Templates, choose Add a new template and create a Liquid template named agents.md, so the file is templates/agents.md.liquid.
  4. Replace its contents with the draft and save.
  5. Open /agents.md on your store to check it.

Idex doesn’t edit your theme, so nothing changes until you save the template yourself.

Keep it current

When you add or rename collections, copy the new draft and paste it into the template again. To go back to Shopify’s default file, delete the template.
