  AnswerShare supplemental machine-layer sitemap (/sitemap-geo.xml).

  llms.txt and llms-full.txt both advertise this as the "supplemental
  machine-layer sitemap" alongside /sitemap.xml. For every other AnswerShare-
  managed property, /sitemap-geo.xml is the tenant's GEO-optimized urlset,
  served from that tenant's machine-layer bundle (see
  functions/[[path]].js::serveMachineLayerSurface / MACHINE_LAYER_SURFACES,
  and the CLIENT_SITEMAP_CONFIG geoPaths pattern for managed client domains).

  answershare.com is our own property: every URL in /sitemap.xml already IS
  the GEO-optimized, bot-served page set (clean-room HTML, JSON-LD, machine
  layer surfaces) - there is no separate "origin CMS sitemap" to layer this
  on top of the way there is for a client. So this file mirrors /sitemap.xml
  verbatim rather than reimplementing the client per-tenant-bundle machinery
  for a site of one. Keep the two files in sync: update this file alongside
  /sitemap.xml whenever a public URL is added, per that file's own header
  convention ("Add new public URLs here as they ship").

  Fixes the sitemap-geo.xml 404 referenced by llms.txt / llms-full.txt
  (site-defects finding, bead rober-1ekw item 5, 2026-09-28).

  Added to public/_routes.json's exclude list per this repo's static-file
  rubric (a new public/ file bypasses functions/[[path]].js entirely,
  going straight to Pages' static-asset resolution). That means requests
  here skip the recordMarkdownRequestObservation bot-visit logging that
  /sitemap.xml, /llms.txt and /robots.txt still get (those three predate
  the exclude-list convention and stay unexcluded). Content is byte-
  identical either way; the tradeoff is losing this one surface's row in
  the bot-visit log, not correctness. Verified end-to-end via
  `wrangler pages dev` (Host: answershare.com), both with and without the
  exclude entry, in this PR.
