The /samples/ top-level tree is replaced with sibling files in each
knowledge-layer folder. An article and its demonstrations now live
side-by-side:
microsoft/knowledge/<domain>/<slug>.md
microsoft/knowledge/<domain>/<slug>.good.al
microsoft/knowledge/<domain>/<slug>.bad.al
Rationale:
- Proximity. An article and its paired samples are one unit; the
filesystem now reflects that.
- Layer ownership. Samples inherit layer precedence for free -- a
/custom/ fork can override an article and its samples atomically,
which the shared /samples/ tree previously made awkward.
- Trivial migration path. Action-skill source globs
(*/knowledge/<domain>/**/*.md) are unchanged; sample discovery is a
sibling-filename lookup.
Changes:
- git mv of all 65 sample files from samples/<domain>/<slug>/{bad,good}.al
to microsoft/knowledge/<domain>/<slug>.{bad,good}.al (history preserved).
- Update See-sample references in all 37 articles that ship samples.
- skills/read.md: replace the no-code-blocks bullet with a pointer to a
new Sample files section that fully specifies the sibling convention,
the kinds (good/bad + forward-compatible), multi-technology rules,
demonstration-only status, and layer-precedence behaviour.
- skills/write.md: update the samples pointer to match.
- README.md: annotate the knowledge tree with the sample sibling shape.
- samples/README.md deleted; content lifted into skills/read.md.
- Both generators (C:\temp\gen_performance_knowledge.py,
C:\temp\gen_security_knowledge.py) updated to emit at the new paths
and to stop writing samples/README.md. Re-running them is idempotent
against the committed layout.

Do not pair FindFirst, FindLast, or Get with Next
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
CodeCop rule AA0233 flags loops that start with FindFirst, FindLast, or Get and then call Next. FindFirst and FindLast retrieve a single row and reposition the cursor; calling Next after them forces the platform to re-seek and stream the rest of the set, which is slower than the correct FindSet pattern and signals intent incorrectly to reviewers and the optimizer.
Best Practice
Choose the Find variant that matches the operation: FindSet for full iteration, FindFirst or FindLast when you want exactly one row, Get when the primary key is known. Never call Next after FindFirst, FindLast, or Get.
Anti Pattern
Writing if Rec.FindFirst() then repeat ... until Rec.Next() = 0 is the canonical AA0233 offender. The loop wastes bandwidth and obscures the author's intent.
