What does this validator check?

It checks the XML root, URL entries, loc values, valid HTTP(S) URLs, and duplicate locations. It is a practical syntax and hygiene check, not a guarantee of indexing.

Can a sitemap contain every URL?

Include canonical, indexable URLs that matter. Exclude redirects, duplicates, non-public pages, and URLs blocked from crawling or indexing.

Does validation guarantee search visibility?

No. A valid sitemap helps discovery, but search engines still evaluate the page content and other signals.
