+/**
+ * bpmn/data-service — the wire shape behind `.dataService()`: one UiPath Data Fabric
+ * (Data Service) record or file operation as an `Intsvc.ActivityExecution` send task.
+ *
+ * Why a dedicated helper and not `.connector('uipath-uipath-dataservice', …)`: the
+ * connector library ships ONE Data Service operation (`query-entity-records`), so the
+ * library-resolving path cannot author a create, an update, a get, a delete or any of
+ * the three file operations. Agents fell back to the generic `.activity()` and filled
+ * the context by hand, and the run-6 artifacts show what that produced: `objectName`
+ * and `operation` both set to `CreateEntityRecordV2` (a spelling the platform does
+ * not serve), `recordId` written into the request body instead of a query parameter,
+ * a bare UUID JSON-quoted, and no folder binding at all — every one a reason a task
+ * that the Flow arm passed failed here.
+ *
+ * The shapes below are copied from what the Flow→BPMN converter writes for the same
+ * operations (the `v1` arm of the same run; `research/bpmn-roundtrip/corpus/` has the
+ * Studio Web originals for the query and get forms), which is the shape the graders
+ * compare against and the one the platform dispatches on. Two forms exist and both
+ * are real:
+ *
+ *  - the **entity form** for create and update — `objectName` is the ENTITY, the path
+ *    is `/<Entity>` or `/<Entity>/{id}`, and `operation` is `Create` / `Replace`;
+ *  - the **curated form** for everything else — `objectName` is a curated operation
+ *    (`GetEntityRecordByIdCurated`, `QueryEntityRecordsCurated`,
+ *    `DeleteEntityRecordCurated`, `DownloadFileFromRecordField`, …), the entity travels
+ *    as the `entityName` PATH parameter, and `operation` is the CRUD verb of the
+ *    underlying HTTP method (`List` for GET, `Create` for POST, `Delete` for DELETE).
+ *
+ * Every parameter is its own `uipath:input` row, `target`-tagged `path` / `query` /
+ * `file`, and typed as the converter types it (`integer` for `start`, `limit`,
+ * `expansionLevel`); only the record itself is a json `body` row. Nothing here needs
