+The HTML parsing logic can be tuned via the `SITEMAP_PARSER` environment variable (default: `docusaurus`; options: `docusaurus`, `astro`, `generic`). For Helm deployments, set `extractor.envs.sitemap.SITEMAP_PARSER` in `infrastructure/rag/values.yaml`. You can also override the parser per upload by passing a `sitemap_parser` key/value pair (same options) in the `/upload_source` request (available as a dropdown in the admin frontend).

+- derive basic metadata such as title and source URL

+The underlying implementation uses BeautifulSoup. If the optional dependency isn't
