GF sends texts, every day, i.e "Good morning baby I hope you have a great day today ", as well as good night texts.
I don't always respond to these and she doesn't let up, not that I really mind it.
I sometimes say "I appreciate it, keep that ass in good condition for me today."
Or just "I appreciate that" followed up with a nick name "baby, kitty, etc"
What are good ways to respond to these when I decide to respond?

She's a girlfriend, you don't have to overthink these gestures. Almost sounds like you're running a bit of plate game trying to not respond on purpose.
Run LTR game on an LTR
I don't really see what you stand to gain by not responding to her two texts a day. Not responding to "good night" makes more sense if you actually fall asleep or something before she sends it.

Ok, what are some good ways to respond that are good for an LTR?

I don't think that a simple "good morning" or "good night would hurt you" at all
I think @Problematic_Browser 's sarcastic reply conveyed the point I was also making, it's just a good morning text.
If she were just a plate and you didn't want this to be heading towards commitment or getting attached, this would be a problem but it's not, she's your girlfriend
Obviously don't respond with "good morning babe, l love you so much I hope your morning is beaming with sunshine and restful sleep"
But like a simple greeting is not going to hurt you, this is how official couples interact

Dude, she's trying to compliance test you. It's her way of weakening you up and making you fall out your frame and into hers.
It starts with her training you to respond to her first thing in the morning with innocuous little things like "good morning" and "hello" and next thing you know you'll be agreeing to her taking that girls trip to Jamaica and helping her pack her double-headed dildo.
Good morning texts are the first cobblestone to cuckoldry!!!
By the way, all of that was a lie.
This isn't some hidden shit test or secret FDS master chess move.
She's just saying good morning. Don't be a fucking cunt and over-think it.

like others said, she's a GF, it's actually good she's doing this.
Tell her you got some hardwood she can polish for you later
or
Babe, It's Taco Tuesday, will see you tonight, I'm hungry

Dont fall into supplicative, needy behaviours and dont pedestalize her. Otherwise dont worry about it and do what feels right.
I would personally find that endearing from an LTR but also a bit annoying. She needs to be okay with not getting replied to, as thats not how you measure affection.

I agree, it's definitely beta bait at some level. Although i dont think such behaviours are insidious at all, but rather a normal part of the subconscious female strategy.
