The workable route for llms.txt is an edge proxy in front of your domain. Last updated: June 10, 2026 ## The short answer Squarespace manages `robots.txt` and `sitemap.xml` automatically and does not document a setting to host an arbitrary text file at your domain root. Uploaded files live on Squarespace's asset paths, not at `yourdomain.com/llms.txt`. The reliable workaround is an edge layer you control in front of the domain. ## Your options - **Edge proxy.** With your DNS on Cloudflare (proxy enabled), a Worker routed on `yourdomain.com/llms.txt` returns the file as `text/plain` and forwards everything else to Squarespace. The Worker code is identical to the one on our [Webflow guide](/llms-txt-webflow/). Check Squarespace's domain-connection requirements before enabling the proxy. - **Watch for native support.** If Squarespace adds a setting for AI files (their SEO panel evolves), prefer it over a proxy and delete the Worker. ## What to avoid - **Linking an asset URL.** A file under Squarespace's asset paths is not at the conventional root location. - **A page named llms-txt.** An HTML page does not satisfy the spec, which expects plain Markdown served as text. ✓ Draft the content first Generate a draft from your sitemap with the generator , curate it, then validate . Keep the file versioned so serving it is trivial once your route is in place. ## FAQ ### Does llms.txt change my Google rankings? No, Google has said it does not use the file; see [llms.txt and SEO](/llms-txt-seo/). ### What should a small business site list in it? Services, pricing, opening hours or contact page, and the FAQ: the pages an assistant needs to answer questions about you accurately. ## Sources - [ llmstxt.org, official spec ](https://llmstxt.org/) On this page - [ The short answer ](#answer) - [ Your options ](#options) - [ What to avoid ](#avoid) - [ FAQ ](#faq)
