Single page documentation to teach LLMs

StoneCypher
It would be helpful if you would produce a copy of the documentation in .txt format as a single page, so that we could feed it to the agents

The agents can probably do that now. :D
StoneCypher
no, they can't

if it's up there in html, they burn through enormous (expensive) context

it would really help to have a .txt version

Here is an LLM-generated script for downloading and concatenating all the files, it recommends using Lynx or Pandoc to convert the HTML to Markdown.

neat. i can force my local instance to do the right thing.

if you could put the result up on your site, other peoples' claudes won't spend $15 reading your manual

I think the challenging part would be automatically directing them in the right direction, but I'm surprised it takes that much! if anything, having a table of contents should allow them to zero-in on the correct section faster; I haven't see Claude Code in particular have any difficulty locating things in the docs.

The best place where to solve this would be upstream. There are several plugins already in development, and an upstream discussion.
