  sitemap.xml for dunkduckdive.com — upload to the WEB ROOT, no rename.
  Source of truth: Projects/Matalay/HOST_CONFIG/ in the DDD knowledge repo.

  WHY THIS MATTERS MORE THAN A SITEMAP USUALLY DOES

  Measured 2026-08-21: the homepage at https://www.dunkduckdive.com/ contains
  ZERO <a href> links — its navigation is script-driven — and nothing else on the
  web links to /Matalay/. So Google has no crawl path to the tour at all. On most
  sites a sitemap is a hint that speeds discovery up; here it is the only way the
  tour gets found.

  WWW, NOT THE BARE DOMAIN, ON PURPOSE

  Both hosts serve 200 and neither redirects (deliberate — the contact iframe
  needs both origins; see README.md). The tour's rel=canonical points at
  https://www.dunkduckdive.com/Matalay/, so every URL here uses www to match. A
  sitemap that disagreed with the canonical tag would be asking Google to index
  one URL while the page names another.

  WHAT IS HERE

  The web root is itself a 3DVista tour — the DDD company site — and each client
  tour sits in a folder beneath it. Inventory taken 2026-08-21; all four below
  were confirmed serving 200. User confirmed the same day that all four should be
  findable.

  WHAT IS DELIBERATELY ABSENT

  /CONTACT_PAGES/  — Disallowed in robots.txt. Being indexed only widens the spam
                     surface, and listing a disallowed path here is contradictory.
  /Matalay_Stage/  — carries X-Robots-Tag: noindex. It is a duplicate of the live
                     tour; indexing it would compete with production.
  /MATALAY/        — image assets the Matalay tour references by absolute URL, not
                     a page. Returns 403 to a directory request.
  Brick_House, KISRP, Boundary, ORBIT — all 404. Not deployed.

  LASTMOD

  Only stated where it is known to be true. Google ignores lastmod it cannot
  trust, and an invented date on every entry is the fastest way to earn that
  distrust. /Matalay/ carries the 2026-08-21 republish date, verified against the
  served build. The homepage has no lastmod because nobody has established when
  it last meaningfully changed — add one when that is known, do not guess.
