  • Update all wiki files to use current ARO syntax (no angle brackets around action verbs) Action verbs like Extract, Retrieve, Return, Store are plain words in ARO. Only variables and qualifiers use <angle-bracket> notation. Updated 33 files covering ~2000 action verb instances across the full wiki.

  • docs: update all examples to new sink syntax (ARO-0043) Update 130+ instances across 25 wiki files to use the new sink syntax where the value comes directly after the verb: Old: <Log> the <message> for the <console> with "Hello". New: <Log> "Hello" to the <console>. Changes: - All Log action examples use new `<Log> <value> to the <console>` syntax - Multi-part messages use Compute then Log pattern - Reference-Actions.md updated with new syntax and prepositions - Reference-System-Objects.md cleaned up (removed backwards compat refs) - All Guide-*.md files updated consistently No backwards compatibility - this is the only valid syntax going forward.
