For example this code

class My_Sitemap
{
    public static function install()
    {
        add_filter('rewrite_rules_array', array(__CLASS__, 'rewriteRules'), 1, 1);
        global $wp_rewrite;
        $wp_rewrite->flush_rules(false);
    }

    public static function rewriteRules($wpRules)
    {
        $rules = array(
            'sitemap\.xml$' => 'index.php?pagename=my-sitemap',
        );
        return array_merge($rules, $wpRules);
    }

    public static function parseRequest($wp)
    {
        if (!isset($wp->query_vars['pagename'])) {
            return true;
        }
        if ($wp->query_vars['pagename'] !== 'minimal-xml-sitemap') {
            return true;
        }
        self::outputXML();
    }

    public static function outputXML()
    {
        echo 'hello';
    }
}

register_activation_hook(__FILE__, array('My_Sitemap', 'install'));
add_action('parse_request', array('My_Sitemap', 'parseRequest'));

the rewrite rule is sitemap\.xml$, shouldn't it be ^sitemap\.xml$? If I go to mysite/asitemap.xml it doesn't work, but mysite/sitemap.xml works. Which one is correct?

For example this code

class My_Sitemap
{
    public static function install()
    {
        add_filter('rewrite_rules_array', array(__CLASS__, 'rewriteRules'), 1, 1);
        global $wp_rewrite;
        $wp_rewrite->flush_rules(false);
    }

    public static function rewriteRules($wpRules)
    {
        $rules = array(
            'sitemap\.xml$' => 'index.php?pagename=my-sitemap',
        );
        return array_merge($rules, $wpRules);
    }

    public static function parseRequest($wp)
    {
        if (!isset($wp->query_vars['pagename'])) {
            return true;
        }
        if ($wp->query_vars['pagename'] !== 'minimal-xml-sitemap') {
            return true;
        }
        self::outputXML();
    }

    public static function outputXML()
    {
        echo 'hello';
    }
}

register_activation_hook(__FILE__, array('My_Sitemap', 'install'));
add_action('parse_request', array('My_Sitemap', 'parseRequest'));

I just did a test and it seems like the rewrite rules imply ^ if you do not specify it. In my test I found:

rule 'foo' matched url 'foo'
rule '^foo' matched url 'foo'
rule 'foo' did not match url 'afoo'
rule '^foo' did not much url 'afoo'
rule '.*foo' matched url 'afoo'

So i had to explicitly add some matching regex at the start for it to match extra characters at the start. 'foo' did not match 'afoo'

Personally, I like to be specific, so I think you're right it makes sense to make your regex '^sitemap\.xml$' because that's what it will do.
