Many developers are transitioning to AI-assisted coding tools like Cursor and Windsurf. To better support these workflows, I've created llms.txt - a comprehensive context file that combines our Python cookbook examples and REST API reference documentation into a single, AI-friendly format.
This addition will help developers who use AI coding assistants to:
I've tested this consolidated format with tools like o1 mini across multiple documentation sources, and it significantly improves the AI's understanding of our codebase and APIs.
The file format follows the emerging llms.txt standard (https://llmstxt.org/), making it compatible with various AI coding assistants.
Note: This will require maintenance as docs are updated, but the benefits to developer experience should outweigh the overhead.
Let me know if you'd like to see any changes to the format or content organization.
