Sitemap Operations | Core + Finance Shard Index

Risk: low · Confidence: high · Reviewed: 2026-07-19

Verdict

Sitemaps do not make pages quantum-proof; they help discovery. Wave 7j shards finance URLs when counts exceed one thousand for operational hygiene.

Overview

The live sitemap index lists core and finance children. Finance may be split into sitemap-finance-0.xml, sitemap-finance-1.xml, … when path count is large.

Legacy /sitemap-finance.xml may still be emitted as a convenience shard or alias depending on generator version—prefer the index.

Cryptographic profile

What breaks

  • Forgetting to register new shard routes on the server

Mitigations

  • Run npm run sitemap on each release
  • Confirm robots.txt points at sitemap.xml index
  • Re-submit index in GSC after major waves
