  Memrith — sitemap.

  Lists every public, indexable page on www.memrith.com. Used by
  search engines to discover URLs + prioritise crawl order.

  Maintenance
  ───────────
  This file is hand-written (small + stable set of pages). When you
  add a new public page, append a <url> entry here AND update the
  <lastmod> on this file's <urlset> root if you care about a fresh
  re-crawl signal.

  Pages intentionally EXCLUDED
  ────────────────────────────
    /before-you-buy   — carries `noindex, follow` (transactional;
                        we want users to reach it via the homepage
                        Buy CTA, not via Google).
    /buy.preview      — marked "DO NOT DEPLOY"; also blocked in
                        robots.txt.
    /api/*            — serverless endpoints (entitlement signing).
    /releases/*.json  — release manifest JSON; not a user page.

  Canonical URL form
  ──────────────────
    https://www.memrith.com/PATH
    - apex (memrith.com) 307s to www
    - .html suffixes 308 redirect to clean URLs
    - trailing slashes 308 redirect away
  Everything in this file matches that form so Googlebot doesn't
  burn crawl budget chasing redirects.
