fix(skills): resolve leftover merge markers and drop alpha hosts on v1.203

[RaduAna-Maria]

Summary

Two fixes for release/v1.203 before cutting 1.203.1.

1. Conflict markers in maestro-bpmn

#2387 (feat(bpmn): derive package metadata with refresh) merged to main with unresolved <<<<<<< / >>>>>>> blocks in two references:

• skills/uipath-maestro-bpmn/references/operate/CAPABILITY.md
• skills/uipath-maestro-bpmn/references/shared/local-metadata-regeneration-guide.md

Main fixed this in #3491, but that fix landed after this branch was cut. This PR cherry-picks it (git cherry-pick -x 83bfc473). It applied cleanly, and no conflict markers remain under skills/, skill-flavors/ or preview/.

2. alpha.uipath.com in maestro-flow

#3838 (the #3792 cherry-pick) removes alpha/staging hosts from every other skill. These four maestro-flow files are not in it because main rewrote them in #3624:

• references/author/greenfield.md, references/shared/cli-conventions.md: login example → uip login --authority "<AUTHORITY_URL>", the same wording fix(skills): remove alpha/staging UiPath hosts from customer-facing skills [PILOT-8517] #3792 uses
• references/author/plugins/inline-voice-agent/{planning,impl}.md: Phone numbers URL example → cloud.uipath.com

Once this PR and #3838 are both merged, release/v1.203 has no alpha.uipath.com or staging.uipath.com hosts left in skills.

Summary

Cherry-picks the merge-marker fix from main (#3491) into release/v1.203 for two maestro-bpmn references, and replaces four alpha.uipath.com occurrences in maestro-flow with either <AUTHORITY_URL> placeholders or cloud.uipath.com, complementing PR #3838.

Change-by-Change Review

1. skills/uipath-maestro-bpmn/references/operate/CAPABILITY.md

OK — Removes a <<<<<<</=======/>>>>>>> block around Critical Rule 4, keeping the HEAD version that documents Data.WrittenFiles and states update-metadata does not materialize Intsvc.* connection bindings. The surviving text is the more complete and accurate version.

2. skills/uipath-maestro-bpmn/references/shared/local-metadata-regeneration-guide.md

OK — Resolves three merge-conflict blocks. The merged result correctly:

• Keeps the "Do NOT apply" scoping paragraph (HEAD) alongside the "refresh is the authoritative boundary" paragraph (other branch) — both carry distinct information.
• Preserves the HEAD explanation for steps 2–3 (why validate should run after refresh, not before).
• Adds uip maestro bpmn validate <file.bpmn> --output json to step 4 before verifying the metadata set — a net improvement over both original branches.

No orphaned content or duplicated instructions after resolution.

3. skills/uipath-maestro-flow/references/author/greenfield.md

OK — https://alpha.uipath.com → "<AUTHORITY_URL>" with comment # non-default host (Automation Suite, dedicated). Follows the content-quality rule for <PLACEHOLDER> values and matches the wording used by #3792 across other skills.

4. skills/uipath-maestro-flow/references/shared/cli-conventions.md

OK — Same alpha → <AUTHORITY_URL> replacement as greenfield.md. Consistent wording and comment.

5. skills/uipath-maestro-flow/references/author/plugins/inline-voice-agent/impl.md

OK — alpha.uipath.com → cloud.uipath.com in the Phone numbers URL example inside a troubleshooting table. This is a URL pattern example (not a user-provided value), so the production domain is the correct replacement.

6. skills/uipath-maestro-flow/references/author/plugins/inline-voice-agent/planning.md

OK — Same alpha.uipath.com → cloud.uipath.com replacement in the Phone numbers URL example. Consistent with impl.md.

Conclusion

Clean, well-scoped fix. The merge-marker resolution in maestro-bpmn keeps the better text from each branch and the alpha-host replacements in maestro-flow are consistent with the pattern used across the rest of the repo (#3792/#3838). No issues found — approve.
