Fix llms.txt Encoding
llms.txt must be UTF-8. Wrong encoding (e.g. Latin-1, Windows-1252) can break parsing and display special characters.
Common causes
- File saved in non-UTF-8 encoding.
- Server sends wrong Content-Type charset.
- BOM or invisible characters.
How to fix
- Save as UTF-8 without BOM.
- Set Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8.
- Validate with llms.txt Validator.
