You need an SEO audit, a migration plan or a redesign scope — but how many pages does the site actually have, and what are their URLs? Four methods, fastest to most thorough.

A page list is just the beginning. What you're usually hunting for are the problems: duplicate title tags, missing meta descriptions, 404s and redirect chains. That work is called a technical SEO audit — and much of it can be automated:
Page Profile takes a URL and shows exactly these fields — the Pro version analyses multiple pages as a batch:

No. A sitemap only contains what the CMS has registered — typically 80–95%. Old pages, landing pages built outside the CMS and pages excluded by plugins are missing. Use the sitemap as a starting point, not as the complete list.
A sitemap is self-reported; a crawler follows links and finds pages that are actually reachable. Crawling catches pages the sitemap misses but can overlook pages with no internal links (orphan pages). Combine both for completeness.
Yes: search site:yoursite.com and page through results, or use Search Console's page index report if you own the site. Google only shows what it has indexed — new or noindexed pages won't appear.
Once you have the URL list, pull title, description and status code per page with a tool like Page Profile — batch analysis gives you a table of missing meta tags and error codes without opening each page manually.
