## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agentstools-dev-sitemap-discovery-parser-e39866fd
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the sitemap for https://example.com and give me a list of all the pages on the site along with when they were last updated?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly enumerate all publicly indexed URLs of a website without crawling it page by page. Ideal for SEO analysis, content auditing, monitoring site structure, or seeding a web scraping workflow. It handles both direct sitemap URLs and auto-discovery via robots.txt, and resolves sitemap index files one level deep — making it more robust than a naive fetch of /sitemap.xml.

## Known failure modes

- No sitemap found at the given URL or via robots.txt — returns empty or error response
- Malformed XML sitemap — parsing may fail or return partial results
- Sitemap index with deeply nested levels beyond one — only one level is resolved
- URL is not accessible or returns non-200 status — fetch fails
- Invalid or missing url query parameter — request rejected

## How this service works

Discover and parse a site's sitemap: pass a site root (found via robots.txt or /sitemap.xml) or a direct .xml. Returns URLs with lastmod/priority; handles <sitemapindex> (one level).

## Output

A structured list of URLs found in the sitemap, each accompanied by lastmod date and priority score where available. If the target URL is a sitemapindex, child sitemaps are followed one level deep and their URLs are aggregated into the response.
