I have a "service" that originates from an /etc/init.d/XX script, and a systemd wrapper is generated for it. It doesn't autostart in any runlevel, and when I run systemctl --all or systemctl list-unit-files --all it doesn't show up in any list.
My hunch is that because it has no dependencies, hasn't been started, it isn't "loaded" into systemd (so not enabled, not loaded) so systemd doesn't list it.
Is there a way to get a full list of all possible services, even those not yet started and that aren't auto-started? Or do a systemctl search equivalent?
This related question only asks for a list of services that will be attempted at boot time.
The man page for systemctl under "--all" says To list all units installed on the system, use the list-unit-files command instead" but these units do not show up in the output of list-unit-files.

Are you running these commands as root? I believe that the list-unit-files command is exactly what you're looking for. It lists the unit files and not just the list of loaded services. I think you're likely looking at an issue with how your service is configured.
Maybe start by creating a dummy service and make sure it gets registered. Something that doesn't actually do anything. Then once that's working you can see how it differs from the service that isn't working. Or compare your service unit file with one of a simple service that is working.
