Ports 14 concern-sized articles (8 performance, 6 security) and 25
AL samples from BC Code Intelligence, restructured to BCQuality's v1
schema and layered under /community/knowledge/. Each article is
atomic, under 100 lines, and ships <slug>.good.al and (where the
pattern has a clear anti-example) <slug>.bad.al siblings.
Jesper's microsoft-layer leaves (al-performance-review and
al-security-review) source across every enabled layer via
*/knowledge/<domain>/**, so these additions are picked up by the
existing action skills without any new skill definitions.
Performance (8):
- use-deleteall-for-filtered-bulk-deletion
- call-setloadfields-before-filters
- load-common-fields-before-branching-on-case
- load-only-primary-key-fields-for-reference-work
- omit-filter-only-fields-from-setloadfields
- choose-maintainsiftindex-by-read-write-ratio
- avoid-growing-globals-in-singleinstance-subscribers
- order-case-branches-by-frequency
Security (6):
- classify-every-field-with-dataclassification
- protect-sensitive-data-in-temporary-tables
- guard-bulk-operations-with-istemporary
- compose-permission-sets-with-included-sets
- do-not-grant-rights-beyond-a-users-entitlement
- prefer-oauth2-over-api-keys-for-external-http-calls
Graveyard-bound items (not ported; to be captured in a later
/docs/triage-graveyard.md):
- testfield-performance (soft guidance, low actionability)
- table-event-batch-operation-impact (keep-event-subscribers-lightweight
already carries the core insight)
- Most of /roger-reviewer (AL formatting - frontier-model territory)
- sift-technology-fundamentals (descriptive, not a citable concern)
- bc-telemetry-buddy-* (tooling promotion, not guidance)

Compose permission sets with IncludedPermissionSets
Seed article. Ported from BC Code Intelligence to seed the community corpus. Community contributors are invited to expand or refine.
Description
The IncludedPermissionSets property lets one AL permission set reference another, composing rights out of smaller building blocks. Combined with Assignable = false on the building blocks, an extension can ship focused per-module units (a table-data cluster, an API-access cluster) and assemble role-shaped sets that include them. Adding an object updates one building block, and every role-shaped set that includes it inherits the change automatically — instead of drifting apart across duplicated definitions.
Best Practice
Break permission grants into small, focused building blocks, one per cohesive concern. Mark the building blocks Assignable = false so administrators do not accidentally assign a fragment. Build role-shaped, Assignable = true sets that reference the relevant building blocks through IncludedPermissionSets. When the extension grows, the structure absorbs the growth without duplicated edits.
See sample: compose-permission-sets-with-included-sets.good.al.
Anti Pattern
Declaring several role-shaped permission sets that each re-enumerate the same object lists. Adding a new table means touching every set by hand; the sets drift apart over time, and subtle authorization bugs appear where one role was updated and a sibling role was not.
See sample: compose-permission-sets-with-included-sets.bad.al.
