Adds a custom llms.txt that overrides Mintlify's auto-generated version with an Instructions section at the top. This tells AI coding assistants (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) the correct Lago integration flow — authentication, the billable metric → plan → customer → subscription → events sequence, idempotency keys, batch events, payment provider configuration, and webhooks. Inspired by Stripe's llms.txt pattern. Without behavioral guidance, AI assistants guess the integration order and often get it wrong.

Summary
llms.txtthat overrides Mintlify's auto-generated versionWhy
AI coding assistants (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) are becoming the primary way developers discover and integrate billing APIs. Without behavioral guidance in
llms.txt, they guess the integration order and often get it wrong — e.g., creating events before creating a billable metric.Stripe already does this and it dramatically improves generated code quality.
Test plan
docs.getlago.com/llms.txtserves the custom file (not the auto-generated one) after deployNote
The custom file includes all existing auto-generated page links so nothing is lost. The only addition is the blockquote description + Instructions section at the top.
