Username generator hub for social media, gaming, and business naming

## About this site

E\-Gen\.net is a username generator service that provides links to various specialized generators\. The provided text indicates it offers tools for creating usernames across multiple categories, including aesthetic, business, clan, cool, cute, discord, dragon, fake, fantasy, fortnite, funny, gamertag, instagram, minecraft, random, reddit, roblox, tiktok, twitch, and youtube names\. The site presents a list of links pointing to specific name generator pages and numerous external directory links\.

## Through a bot's eyes

Written from the response GoodForBotsBot received in scan cmvuyg4lf03ql01p70apoibto (2026-10-30T12:35:25.935Z), before any JavaScript ran.

### What a bot can read

A language model reading this input learns that E\-Gen\.net functions as an index or hub for various username and name generation tools\. The text explicitly covers categories such as gaming handles, social media profiles, business names, and fantasy characters through a series of anchor texts\. However, the input does not provide prices, documentation, contact details, or explanatory paragraphs describing how the generators work\. It consists almost entirely of links to specific generator pages and numerous outbound links to third\-party directory listings and product submission sites\. No secondary formats such as llms\.txt, JSON\-LD, or a dedicated text/markdown version were supplied\.

### What stays hidden

A model reading only this input cannot find out how the username generators function, whether they are free to use, or if any account registration is required\. Additionally, there are no contact details, terms of service, or background information about the creators of the site\.

> E\-Gen\.net is a username generator service that offers links to various specialized name creation tools for platforms, games, and businesses\.

## Fixes

### Serve Markdown at its own URL

Recoverable contribution: 12.5 points.

Score with this fix and the ones above it: 33/100.

No /llms\-full\.txt and no markdown versions linked from llms\.txt\.

````text
My website e-gen.net scored 21/100 on Good for Bots (Poor). Good for Bots measures one thing: whether a language model can read a site and cite it.

I need you to: serve the content as markdown at its own URLs.

The check it fails is "Serves markdown at its own URL", worth 12.5 points. What the scanner saw: No /llms-full.txt and no markdown versions linked from llms.txt.

A model that can only reach this site's content through HTML pays to parse markup and
loses structure doing it: navigation, cookie banners and script tags arrive alongside
the prose, and headings, tables and code blocks come out flattened. Markdown at its own
address removes HTML from the path entirely: what is fetched is the content and nothing
else.

Two routes satisfy this, and it is worth being clear about which one the specification
asks for. llmstxt.org asks for a markdown version of each page **at the same URL as the
original**, either with `.md` appended (`page.html.md`) or with the extension replaced
(`page.md`). `llms-full.txt`, the single bundle holding everything, does not appear in
the specification at all. It is a community convention that grew up around it and is
now widespread. Both are accepted here. The per-page form is the one the document
asks for.

Either of these passes:

- **The bundle.** `/llms-full.txt`, one document, real markdown rather than HTML,
  carrying the site's actual content rather than a placeholder.
- **Per-page mirrors.** A markdown twin for each page at `page.md` or `page.html.md`,
  **and linked from `/llms.txt`**. That second half is load-bearing: mirrors are counted
  from the links in the index, so twins that nothing points at are invisible to this scan
  and, more to the point, to anything crawling the site.

For the mirror route, the index carries them as ordinary link lines:

```markdown
## Docs

- [Quickstart](/docs/quickstart.md): create an account and take a first payment
- [Concepts](/docs/concepts.md): customers, subscriptions, invoices and proration
- [Webhooks](/docs/webhooks.md): events, signature verification, retry schedule
```

Both `/docs/quickstart` and `/docs/quickstart.md` have to answer 200: the HTML for
people, the markdown for everything else.

Serving markdown through content negotiation does **not** satisfy this, and that is
deliberate rather than an oversight. A negotiated response only exists for a client that
knows to send `Accept: text/markdown`, and most crawlers send no preference at all. A
`.md` address sits in the open: it is found by ordinary crawling, it can be linked to,
and it can be cited. If this site already negotiates markdown, the report says so in
these words: *"Markdown is served on request, but not at any URL a crawler would find on
its own"*. That is a different check passing on its own terms, not a contradiction.

Four things about how this is measured. The bundle is judged by size, by being markdown
rather than a page or JSON, and by not merely repeating `llms.txt`; its content is never
sampled beyond that, so a couple of kilobytes of boilerplate would pass. Do not take that
as permission, since the point of the file is the content in it. `.mdx` counts as markdown
although the specification names only `.md`, because excluding it would punish a large
part of the documentation ecosystem for its toolchain. The number of mirrors we want
before calling it a convention on this site is our judgement, not the specification's.
And the mirror URLs listed in the index are counted, never fetched, so a list of `.md`
addresses that 404 passes this check and helps nobody at all.

The whole report, as markdown, is at https://goodforbots.com/r/e-gen.net.md?scan=cmvuyg4lf03ql01p70apoibto. Read it first: this prompt covers one finding, and the report has everything the scan saw.

When you are done, summarise what you changed and how to check it against a running instance. Do not try to run the Good for Bots scan yourself: it only sees what is already deployed, it is rate-limited, and re-running it is the site owner's call once the change ships.

### Publish a well\-formed llms\.txt

Recoverable contribution: 11.25 points.

Score with this fix and the ones above it: 45/100.

/llms\.txt returns an HTML page rather than markdown\.

````text
My website e-gen.net scored 21/100 on Good for Bots (Poor). Good for Bots measures one thing: whether a language model can read a site and cite it.

I need you to: publish an llms.txt at the site root.

The check it fails is "llms.txt is present and well formed", worth 11.25 points. What the scanner saw: /llms.txt returns an HTML page rather than markdown.

The file is being answered by the application rather than served as a file: the request
returns a page of HTML where markdown should be. Nothing needs writing until that is
fixed. Find the catch-all route or rewrite rule that claims every unknown path, and let
`/llms.txt` fall through to a static file. In most stacks that means moving it into the
directory served verbatim and adding an exclusion to the router, not adding a handler.

A model that arrives at a site with no `llms.txt` has to work out what is here from
whatever the navigation happens to expose. A sitemap does not help it. That file was
written for a search engine and lists addresses without saying what any of them are
for. `llms.txt` is the one file written for the other kind of reader: a short, curated
index that says what this project is and which pages are worth fetching.

The format is defined at llmstxt.org, currently at version 2. It is a convention with a
written specification and real adoption, not a standards-body document: there is no RFC
behind it and no working group. Worth knowing before treating any corner of it as
settled.

The file must:

- be served at `/llms.txt`, at the site root, answering 200 as text rather than HTML;
- open with an H1 naming the project (a `#`, a space, then the name). The specification
  makes this the one required element, so a file without it is not llms.txt at all;
- carry a blockquote directly under that title saying what the project is, in the terms
  someone who has never seen it would need;
- list the pages worth fetching as bullet links, `- [Name](url)`, each followed by `:`
  and a note saying what is behind it;
- group those links under `##` headings that mean something (`Docs`, `API`, `Optional`)
  rather than one undifferentiated pile.

By convention the section named `Optional` holds secondary information: links an agent
can skip when it needs a shorter context. It is the only place in the format where a
site can say "this matters less", so use it rather than leaving everything equally
weighted.

A minimal, valid example:

```markdown
# Acme

> Acme is a hosted billing API for subscription businesses. These pages cover the
> concepts, the REST endpoints, and the migration path from the v1 API.

Start with the quickstart. The API reference is generated from the OpenAPI document
linked below, so it is always current.

## Docs

- [Quickstart](/docs/quickstart.md): create an account and take a first payment
- [Concepts](/docs/concepts.md): customers, subscriptions and invoices, and how they relate
- [Migrating from v1](/docs/migrate-v1.md): what changed, and the cut-off date

## API

- [REST reference](/api/reference.md): every endpoint, with request and response shapes
- [OpenAPI document](/api/openapi.json): the machine-readable schema

## Optional

- [Changelog](/changelog.md): release notes, most recent first
```

Two things get this wrong more often than anything else.

**A catch-all route answering for the file.** A framework that serves its application
shell for every unknown path returns 200 and a page of HTML at `/llms.txt`, which is
worse than a plain 404 because nothing signals that the file is absent. Verify from
outside the application: `curl -s https://e-gen.net/llms.txt | head -5` must print markdown,
not `<!doctype html>`. On most stacks the answer is to put the file in the directory
that is served verbatim (`public/`, `static/`, `www/`) rather than in the router.

**Generating it from the sitemap.** A dump of every URL the site has is a sitemap with
different punctuation. This file is a curated index: a few dozen entries a person chose,
each carrying a note. A generated wall of bare links satisfies the format and helps
nobody, and it fails the companion check that asks whether the index describes anything.

Two limits of this scan are worth knowing, because neither is a reading of the
specification. The specification allows the file at any subpath (`/docs/llms.txt`
covers the URLs beneath `/docs/`), but this scan requests the site root and nothing
else, so a file that exists only under a subpath is reported as absent. And the URLs
inside the file are never fetched, so an index pointing at pages that have moved still
reads as well formed here.

### Publish a sitemap that parses

Recoverable contribution: 10.87 points.

Score with this fix and the ones above it: 56/100.

No sitemap was found\.

````text
My website e-gen.net scored 21/100 on Good for Bots (Poor). Good for Bots measures one thing: whether a language model can read a site and cite it.

I need you to: publish a sitemap a crawler can find.

The check it fails is "Sitemap is present and parses", worth 10.87 points. What the scanner saw: No sitemap was found.

A sitemap is how a reader learns what exists on a site without inferring it from
whatever the navigation links to. That matters more to an agent fetching a handful of
pages than to a search engine crawling continuously: the search engine will find the
rest eventually, and the agent will not come back.

Follow the sitemaps.org protocol 0.9, a de facto standard published jointly by the
major search engines rather than an RFC. The `Sitemap:` line that points at it is
defined by that same protocol; RFC 9309 mentions sitemaps only as an example of a record
outside the robots protocol that a crawler MAY interpret, and requires only that reading
it does not interfere with the real directives or terminate a group.

The sitemap must:

- live at `/sitemap.xml`, `/sitemap-index.xml` or `/sitemap_index.xml`, or at any URL
  named by a `Sitemap:` line in `robots.txt`, and answer 200;
- be a `<urlset>` in which every `<url>` carries a `<loc>`, or a `<sitemapindex>` in
  which every `<sitemap>` carries a `<loc>` pointing at a document that itself resolves;
- declare the namespace `http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9`, which the
  protocol requires;
- give every `<loc>` a full absolute URL, with XML entities escaped;
- stay under 50,000 URLs and 50 MB uncompressed, splitting into an index above that;
- list only URLs at or beneath its own path. A sitemap at `/catalog/sitemap.xml` may
  list `/catalog/…` and may not list `/images/…`.

A plain-text sitemap is equally valid under the protocol and passes here too: UTF-8, one
complete absolute URL per line, nothing else in the file (no headers, no comments, no
blank decoration).

A minimal, valid example:

```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
  <url>
    <loc>https://e-gen.net/</loc>
    <lastmod>2026-09-01</lastmod>
  </url>
  <url>
    <loc>https://e-gen.net/docs/quickstart</loc>
  </url>
</urlset>
```

Two things get this wrong.

**An index whose children lead nowhere.** A `<sitemapindex>` that resolves to shards
which 404, or which are themselves empty, is a chain ending in nothing. It parses, it
looks correct in a browser, and it lists no pages. Fetch two or three of the child URLs
directly before assuming the chain holds.

**An HTML page at `/sitemap.xml`.** Either a styled sitemap viewer, or the application's
catch-all route answering a path it does not recognise. What comes back is a document no
sitemap parser can read, and it is worse than nothing there at all, because the address
now looks occupied.

A gzipped sitemap is fine: the protocol permits gzip for sitemaps, indexes and text
sitemaps alike, and this scan decompresses it and reads it like any other. The 50 MB
limit applies to the file once uncompressed, and a `.gz` that will not decompress is as
unreadable as broken XML.

Two limits of this scan are worth knowing. An index is followed one level deep and at
most five children, keeping 200 URLs per document, so a heavily sharded sitemap is
sampled rather than walked. And the namespace is not validated here, so a `<urlset>` in
the wrong namespace parses for us and may not for anyone else; treat a pass as evidence
that the file is reachable and readable, not as proof of validity.

Declaring the sitemap in `robots.txt` is not required to pass: a sitemap at one of the
conventional locations is found without it. It is one line, it is recorded on the report,
and it is the only way a crawler finds a sitemap that lives anywhere else, so it is worth
writing; but nothing here depends on it.
