SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents SEO indexing problems by identifying mismatches between an Adobe Edge Delivery Services (EDS) sitemap.xml and the site content that is actually published and discoverable.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sitemap vs query index reconciliation: Cross-references sitemap URLs with the EDS query index to find pages missing from either source.
  • URL health validation: Checks URL reachability (spot-checking based on sitemap size) to catch broken or redirected entries.
  • lastmod quality checks: Detects missing, stale, future, or uniform lastmod values that can reduce crawl efficiency.
  • Actionable SEO report: Produces specific additions, removals, and fixes tailored for launch readiness and troubleshooting.

Quick Start

Run sitemap-audit for your EDS site domain to generate a report of sitemap coverage gaps, broken URLs, and lastmod issues.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit an AEM Edge Delivery Services sitemap against published content?▼

To audit an AEM Edge Delivery Services sitemap, you cross-reference sitemap.xml URLs against the query-index.json to identify coverage gaps, validate URL reachability, and report lastmod metadata issues.

Why are my EDS sitemap URLs missing from the search index?▼

EDS sitemap URLs may be missing from the search index due to mismatches between sitemap.xml entries and the query index, broken links, or incorrect lastmod values that reduce crawl efficiency and discoverability.

How do I check lastmod validation issues in a sitemap for SEO?▼

Lastmod validation checks detect missing, stale, future-dated, or uniform timestamp values in sitemap.xml entries, which can negatively impact crawl efficiency and search engine indexing behavior.

Can I use a sitemap audit for post-migration URL verification in AEM?▼

Yes, a sitemap audit supports post-migration URL verification by cross-referencing published EDS content with the query index to catch missing pages, broken redirects, and structural changes after migration.

What is the best way to troubleshoot indexing errors using query-index.json?▼

Troubleshoot indexing errors by fetching and parsing sitemap.xml, then reconciling those URLs against query-index.json entries to pinpoint missing pages, unreachable links, and metadata discrepancies.

Does this sitemap audit work for launch readiness checks?▼

Yes, a sitemap audit generates an actionable SEO report of additions, removals, and fixes needed, making it suitable for launch readiness checks and identifying discoverability gaps before publishing.
