Most of the corpus — FindSet/SetLoadFields/CalcFields patterns, permission sets, SingleInstance codeunits, DataClassification, IsolatedStorage, transaction scope, SecretText — describes BC platform behaviour that is identical across supported versions. The seed [26..28] range on every file implied a version-specificity the content does not actually have, and there was no way to express "applies to every version" in the schema the way [w1] and [all] already do for countries and application-area. Extend the v1 schema with a universal sentinel for bc-version, parallel to the sentinels already defined for the other dimensions: bc-version: [all] # applies to every BC version [all] is mutually exclusive with explicit versions. Range shorthand ([26..28]) and explicit lists ([26, 27, 28]) continue to work for files genuinely tied to a version-gated API or deprecation. Update read.md (field definition, matching semantics, partial-context rule), write.md (default to [all], use ranges only with a concrete reason), README.md (frontmatter example), and the CI validator. All forty existing knowledge files and the three action skills convert to [all]; none of the current content is version-gated. Validator passes.

Use FindSet with Next for iteration
Seed article. Converted from an existing performance-review prompt to bootstrap the BCQuality performance corpus. Domain stewards should expand, restructure, and refine as needed.
Description
When iterating over a filtered set of records with repeat-until, use FindSet together with Next. CodeCop rule AA0181 requires FindSet or Find to be paired with Next; using FindFirst or FindLast as the loop starter misrepresents intent and leads to rule AA0233.
Best Practice
Call FindSet to start the iteration and Next to advance. Guard the loop with the standard if FindSet() then ... until Next() = 0 idiom so callers can still handle the empty-set case.
See sample: use-findset-with-next.good.al.
Anti Pattern
Starting a repeat-until loop with FindFirst or FindLast reads only one row and then calls Next on an iterator that was not intended for full-set traversal. The platform pays extra work to fetch the single row and the loop silhouette is misleading to reviewers.
See sample: use-findset-with-next.bad.al.
