- llm-min.txt is a machine-optimized format for compressing technical documentation for AI consumption.
- It uses the Structured Knowledge Format (SKF) to organize information into Definitions, Interactions, and Usage Patterns sections.
- The format achieves 90-95% token reduction compared to original documentation, making it efficient for AI processing.
- Key features include header metadata, three core structured sections, and line-based structure for machine parsing.
- The tool requires Google's Gemini API for generation but can be used with any competent coding model afterwards.
- Installation is via pip, and generation involves a multi-stage AI analysis pipeline.
- Future plans include a public repository for pre-generated files and code-based documentation inference.
- Common questions address generation time, cost, and error handling.
