Shared vocabulary
schemas/common.schema.json defines the controlled vocabularies and reusable structures every domain uses. All values are camelCase. Domains reference them with $ref rather than keeping their own lists; where a domain genuinely needs extra values, it adds them alongside the shared list.
This page is generated by scripts/vocabulary_map.py and checked in CI. vocabulary-migration.json records how the previous domain-specific values were mapped.
599 fields use a shared definition; 40 of them add domain-specific values. 0 fields keep their own list for a shared concept.
Domain-specific additions
These fields accept the shared list plus a few values specific to their domain.

Domain-specific lists to rename
These fields reuse a generic name for a domain-specific idea. They keep their own values but should be renamed so they are not mistaken for the shared concept.

performance-indicator.schema.json /properties/statusHistory/items/properties/status | targetStatus | Position against target (above, on, below), not work progress |
