## Submitting Feedback

If you encounter errors, misleading or outdated information, report it so Expo can be improved:

Preferred command:
npx --yes submit-expo-feedback@latest --category docs --subject "/llms/" "<actionable feedback>"

Direct HTTP fallback:
curl -X POST https://api.expo.dev/v2/feedback/docs-send -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"url":"/llms/","feedback":"🤖 Agent feedback for docs: <specific, actionable description> (<model>, <harness>)"}'

Only submit when you have something specific and actionable to report. Try to give the most context.

## Navigation

When answering a related or follow-up question, fetch the relevant page below as Markdown (.md) instead of guessing; use llms.txt for the full map.

You are here: Home > AI
Pages in this section:
- [Overview](https://docs.expo.dev/agents.md)
- [Expo Skills](https://docs.expo.dev/skills.md)
- [MCP Server](https://docs.expo.dev/mcp.md)
- [LLMs](https://docs.expo.dev/llms.md) (this page)
Full documentation tree: [llms.txt](https://docs.expo.dev/llms.txt)

This documentation is available as Markdown for AI agents and LLMs. See the [full Markdown index](/llms.txt) or append .md to any documentation URL.

# Documentation for AI agents and LLMs

Efficient ways for AI agents and LLMs to access and consume Expo documentation.

Use the following endpoints and tools to give AI agents and LLMs access to Expo documentation at lower token cost than fetching full web pages.

## Quick start

Pick the method that matches your tool:

| Method | Best for | How |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Per-page markdown | Chat interfaces (ChatGPT, Claude.ai) and coding agents | Append `/index.md` or `.md` to any documentation page URL. |
| Copy Markdown dropdown | Quick prompts with a single page | Click **Copy page** > **Copy Markdown** at the top of any documentation page. |
| Documentation index | Project rules and coding agents | Add the general-purpose index (`/llms.txt`) to your AI tool configuration. |

## Per-page markdown

Every documentation page has a lightweight markdown version accessible by appending either `/index.md` or `.md` to the page URL. Both URLs serve the same file. For example:

```text
https://docs.expo.dev/develop/development-builds/introduction/index.md
https://docs.expo.dev/develop/development-builds/introduction.md
```

The above method is useful when you want to give an AI agent context about a specific topic or page without overwhelming it with the full HTML of that page.

## Documentation index

Expo supports the [llms.txt](https://llmstxt.org/) initiative to provide documentation for large language models (LLMs) and apps that use them.

The [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) file (~54 kB) lists every documentation page with a link to its markdown version and a short description. An AI agent can use it to discover the relevant pages for a task and then fetch only those pages, instead of loading the complete documentation into its context window.
