  Cleaned 2026-08-01 (owner-websites, KAN-87).

  Removed four entries that were not pages at all but 301 redirects: /shark,
  /growth and /wealth (vanity links to wall.et used in outreach) and
  /ebook-more-revenue-more-customers-less-marketing-spend (redirects to a PDF).
  A sitemap lists canonical URLs that return 200; listing a redirect asks a
  crawler to index a URL that immediately tells it to go elsewhere. The redirects
  themselves are untouched and still work, they just no longer claim to be
  indexable pages. This was recorded as a known defect in the design lock.

  LAUNCH, 2026-08-27. The 2026 build is now the site: every URL below serves it
  from its root path, and /v2/<slug> 301s here. Three changes made in this pass:

  - /creators-and-influencers ADDED. The note here used to say it was absent
    because no such page existed outside /v2, and to add it "at launch, not
    before, or the sitemap advertises a 404". This is that launch.
  - The five free-tool URLs ADDED (/free-tools and the four tools). These were
    held out of the sitemap at owner-marketing's request on KAN-696, explicitly
    "until John clears launch". He has.
  - /certification/partners REMOVED. That route is commented out for launch on
    John's call, so listing it would advertise a 404. Restore both together, or
    neither.

  Verified rather than assumed at launch: all 33 URLs return 200, none emits a
  robots noindex, and a crawl of every page found zero broken internal links.
  tools/launch-gate.js now enforces the sitemap against the LAUNCHED_2026 list
  in server.js, so the two cannot drift apart silently.

  DELIBERATELY ABSENT: /event-tickets, /gift-cards and /in-wallet-purchasing.
  Those three are written ahead of the product, still carry unresolved claims,
  still emit noindex and still live only under /v2. They are a separate launch
  decision, not an oversight.

  - CORRECTED 2026-08-25. This note previously claimed the certification pages
    were listed twice each, singular AND plural, and were therefore duplicate
    content competing with itself. That was wrong, and it was mine. They are six
    distinct pages: the SINGULAR is the apply page ("become a certified agency",
    with the tier comparison and the booking calendar) and the PLURAL is the
    directory ("here are the agencies we have certified"). Different search
    intent, different reader, different job. No canonicalization is needed and
    nothing should be 301'd. All six stay in the sitemap.
    The one real issue in that area is that most directory tiers are still
    empty, which is a thin-content risk rather than a duplicate-content one.

    <!-- The free-tool pages (KAN-696) are deliberately NOT listed here. They
         were briefly published at /funnels on 2026-08-01 and moved back behind
         /v2 the same day, because they publish on the get.wallet.inc SUBDOMAIN
         instead. This file is wallet.inc's sitemap, and /v2 is disallowed in
         wallet.inc's robots.txt, so listing them here would advertise URLs this
         host tells crawlers to ignore.
         get.wallet.inc needs its OWN sitemap when it goes live. Tracked on
         KAN-696; do not solve it by adding cross-host URLs to this file. -->
