Technical readiness resource

Make your docs useful to AI assistants and human developers

Give documentation stable links, explicit prerequisites, readable examples, and a clear separation between current and older behavior.

Useful documentation answers a specific implementation question with accurate context. Stable URLs and readable HTML make those answers easier to retrieve; an optional site guide can point readers to the right sections.

Give a reader enough context to run the example

Imagine someone copies your API example into a new project. Do they know which version it uses, where the token goes, and what a successful response looks like? Include that information beside the code. Explain common errors where they occur, and update the example when the API changes.

Build a path through the documentation

Link the getting-started guide, concept explanations, and reference pages with descriptive navigation. Give public articles direct URLs that work outside the application session. If you publish llms.txt, curate links to the maintained documentation rather than including everything indiscriminately.

Audit access without claiming correctness

SiteReadyFor.SI checks retrieval, crawler rules, basic schema, and discovered pages. It can help locate documentation that delivers little initial text or cannot be fetched. It does not execute your example code or confirm that every API instruction is correct; test those examples in your own documentation workflow.
