Make Shepherd easier for agents and search to find and license - #3597
We want Shepherd to be the default choice when a person or a coding agent needs a product tour or onboarding flow. We also want commercial users to find the license and pay for it.
Two gaps worked against that. Comparison sites that answer engines cite call Driver.js the "safest default for licensing," and none of our machine-readable surfaces said what a commercial license costs. The docs site also had no llms.txt and no sitemap, and the npm keywords never said "product tour" or "onboarding."
What changed
The docs site uses starlight-llms-txt and sets site. The build now emits llms.txt, llms-small.txt, llms-full.txt and sitemap-index.xml.
The landing llms.txt has a Licensing section with the prices and the purchase link, plus a link to the docs llms-full.txt.
The docs license page opens with four short answers: is it free, can I use it commercially, what it costs, and whether react-shepherd needs a license.
shepherd.js and react-shepherd have keywords for product tour, onboarding, walkthrough, accessibility, and framework terms.
Outside this diff, the GitHub repo topics now include product-tour, user-onboarding, guided-tour, walkthrough, onboarding, react, accessibility and others.
Verification
pnpm -F shepherd-docs build passes, including astro check. dist/llms-full.txt contains the new Quick answers section.
pnpm -F landing test passes, 41 tests. The new test asserts that llms.txt states the price and the pricing URL.
Added a Markdown version of the documentation for easier access by AI tools.
Expanded package keywords to improve discoverability for React, product tours, onboarding, accessibility, and related use cases.
Documentation
Added quick answers clarifying which uses are free, when a commercial license is required, evaluation limits, one-time Business and Enterprise prices, and how react-shepherd licensing relates to Shepherd.js.
The docs site now publishes llms.txt, llms-small.txt, llms-full.txt and a
sitemap. The npm keywords cover product tour, onboarding and framework
terms. The landing llms.txt and the docs license page state the commercial
license price and path in plain answers.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The changes configure generated machine-readable documentation, add licensing and pricing details to documentation content, and expand package keywords for React and Shepherd.js.
The new licensing guidance describes react-shepherd as MIT, but the package declares AGPL-3.0 and ships the root license. Readers could make wrong compliance decisions. Correct the wrapper's license wording in the guide and the landing llms.txt before merging.

- Line 16: Correct the react-shepherd licensing information: update the license
FAQ answer and the corresponding entry in the llms.txt content to reflect the
package’s declared AGPL-3.0 license, not MIT, while keeping any separate
Shepherd.js commercial-license requirements accurate. Check the package metadata
and prepack-copied license for consistency, changing them only if they conflict.

**What does a commercial license cost?** A one-time payment with no recurring fees. The Business license is $50 for up to 5 projects. The Enterprise license is $300 for unlimited projects. [Buy a license](https://www.shepherdjs.dev/pricing).
**Does `react-shepherd` need a license too?** The wrapper is MIT, but it depends on `shepherd.js`, so commercial use needs a Shepherd.js commercial license.

Correct the wrapper’s license.
packages/react/package.json declares AGPL-3.0, and its prepack script copies the root license into the package. Users may make incorrect compliance decisions if they rely on the MIT claim. Reconcile the package license and update this answer and landing/public/llms.txt lines 58–59. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
