Across locales

What each covering migration carries for this concept, per locale — the whole-brain view, not filtered by your language. Forms are the migration's leaf values (pre-transform, pre-human-verdict); a locale without a form falls back to canonical English. Chips open that locale's live docs page for this term.

Explanation

I suggest 'umurongo' (line/sequence/order). It better conveys the idea of a defined sequence of instructions, which is closer to the programming concept of a procedure. It also avoids the potential ambiguity of 'inzira'.

Issue breakdown

specificity While 'inzira' (path/process) isn't *wrong*, it leans more towards a general process. 'Procedure' in programming is more about a specific set of instructions.
