  The public surface: the English landing page, its Arabic twin, and the legal +
  contact documents. Absolute URLs on the canonical host (https://vera-agent.com).
  Application routes are excluded here and disallowed in robots.txt. Core sitemap
  elements stay in sitemaps.org schema order (loc, lastmod, changefreq, priority)
  with the xhtml extension last. READINESS R1.6, extended by R9.4.

  TWO CHECKS HOLD THIS FILE TO THE SITE, because "keep this in sync" on its own
  did not: scripts/prerender.mjs fails the build when a prerendered URL is
  missing here OR when a <loc> here was not prerendered (that second one is how
  /terms came to be submitted to Google and answered with the noindex SPA
  shell), and scripts/check-sitemap-freshness.mjs fails the invariants when a
  <lastmod> below is older than the source that renders that page. Bump the
  <lastmod> when you change a page — that is the whole reason Google re-crawls
  it, and twenty-four of these entries were once stale by up to eleven days.

  HREFLANG IS NOW CHECKED, NOT JUST ASKED FOR. Every <xhtml:link> below must
  match the <link rel="alternate"> tags in the prerendered document for that URL,
  and prerender.mjs fails the build when the two disagree in either direction
  (assertHreflangMatchesSitemap). The document side is DERIVED from what the
  build actually wrote, so a translated page always gets the full en/ar/x-default
  triple on both of its URLs and an untranslated one gets none — which is why the
  legal documents carry no alternates (English only, one URL each) while the
  guides and the comparison pages carry them per page. Keep this
  The legal/contact documents (/legal, /terms, /privacy, /refund, /contact) ARE
  listed below: company.ts now carries real business facts, so LEGAL_PUBLISHED is
  true and the five documents prerender. If a placeholder is ever reintroduced the
  surface unpublishes itself — remove the five entries here too, since this file is
  static and cannot read the flag. Keep them in step with the LEGAL_PAGES array in
  apps/server/src/server.ts.

  The guide documents (/guide + /guide/<slug>) are the repository's docs/*.md,
  rendered at build time. English-first: a guide gains an /ar URL and an hreflang
  pair only when a real translation is listed in GUIDE_TRANSLATIONS. Keep them in
  step with the GUIDES array in
  apps/dashboard/src/pages/guide/manifest.ts. They change with the product rather
  than with the calendar, hence changefreq=monthly and a higher priority than the
  policies: this is the surface a search visitor actually wants.

  THE BLOG ENTRIES AT THE BOTTOM ARE GENERATED, and they are the only ones that
  are. They live between BLOG:BEGIN and BLOG:END and come from the frontmatter of
  content/blog/*.md via `node apps/dashboard/scripts/sync-blog-sitemap.mjs
  --write`. Do not hand-edit them. The long note above that region explains why
  that surface pays a different toll from every other one here, and why both
  checks above still apply to it.

    The guide surface is English-first: a guide gains an /ar URL only when a real
    translation is listed in GUIDE_TRANSLATIONS (pages/guide/manifest.ts). The
    hreflang pairs below are therefore PER PAGE, not blanket — declaring an `ar`
    alternate for a guide that has none would advertise a translation that 404s.
    Keep in step with GUIDE_TRANSLATIONS; the prerender fails the build when this
    file and the rendered set disagree in either direction.

  <!-- Comparison surface (GROWTH G3.1). Listed only while COMPARE_PUBLISHED is
       true, which is derived from every competitor fact carrying a dated
       source. If a fact is ever retired to unverified, these twelve come out in
       the same change - prerender.mjs fails the build otherwise, in both
       directions.

       ARABIC (GROWTH G4.2). Every comparison page has an /ar twin, so every one
       of them carries the full en/ar/x-default triple on BOTH URLs. Unlike the
       guides, this surface is translated all-or-nothing: the Arabic pages render
       the SAME fact registry as the English ones - a competitor's claim is
       quoted verbatim in English and never restated - so a page cannot be
       "translated except for the facts". A sixth competitor without Arabic copy
       unpublishes the whole Arabic surface (COMPARE_AR_PUBLISHED), and then the
       six /ar entries below come out with it. prerender.mjs now compares these
       hreflang annotations against the ones it writes into each document and
       fails the build if the two disagree. -->

    THE BLOG (GROWTH G5.2) — the one GENERATED region of this hand-maintained
    file. Everything above is written by a person; everything between the two
    markers below is written by

        node apps/dashboard/scripts/sync-blog-sitemap.mjs --write

    from the frontmatter of content/blog/*.md. Do not hand-edit it: the next sync
    overwrites your edit, and scripts/check-sitemap-freshness.mjs fails the
    invariants in the meantime.

    WHY THIS ONE IS GENERATED. Every other surface here is a small closed set
    edited a few times a year, so a hand-written entry per page is a fair toll. A
    blog is an open set, and the whole point of the surface is that a post
    publishes by adding one markdown file — a per-post XML edit is a per-post
    opportunity to forget, on the one file where forgetting means the page is
    never discovered.

    IT IS STILL CHECKED, IN BOTH DIRECTIONS, and generating it did not weaken
    that. The region is COMMITTED, so what the checks compare is this file rather
    than a generator's in-flight output: a post added, deleted or renamed without
    re-running the sync fails, a hand-edit that drifted fails, and a merge that
    took one side of this file and the other side of content/blog/ fails.
    <lastmod> is the post's own frontmatter date — a human statement in a
    committed file, and the same date printed on the page.
