# Submit the sitemap URLs to IndexNow — instant "this changed, re-crawl it" pings to Bing,
# Yandex, Seznam, Naver (and anyone else on the shared IndexNow endpoint). Google doesn't use
# IndexNow but honors the same sitemap. Run after a content deploy, or from CI/cron.
#
# Prereq: the IndexNow key file (frontend/<KEY>.txt) must be DEPLOYED and reachable at
# https://<host>/<KEY>.txt — that's how IndexNow verifies ownership.
