Bing and IndexNow require proof of ownership before URLs from www.ai-driven-development.org can be submitted. Add the downloaded Bing XML and a separate root-level IndexNow key file to the manifest site’s public assets.

Validation: production build passes; both files return HTTP 200 with exact contents from the built server; Bing XML parses correctly; IndexNow filename matches its contents; git diff --check passes. Review scope is 2 static files, with no UI journey for browser QA.

Production verified after merge: both ownership files return HTTP 200 with exact contents. Bing verified www.ai-driven-development.org and accepted https://www.ai-driven-development.org/sitemap.xml for processing. IndexNow received its 2 canonical URLs with HTTP 202 (key validation pending). Indexing itself is not claimed.
