Answer-first definitionUpdated 15 Aug 2026

sitemap.xml · AR-DISC-02

Centralized URL index so agents can list the site without crawling page by page. SHOULD for any public, indexable site.

Context

Spec at sitemaps.org. In Next 16, generate via sitemap.ts and expose via Link header rel=sitemap.

Why it matters for agent readiness

AR-DISC-02 SHOULD. Without a sitemap the agent crawls blind. In Next 16 use sitemap.ts and advertise the URL in Link header rel=sitemap and in robots.txt (Sitemap:). isitagentready flags it if missing.
