Custom Fields
You can add your own fields. If a field contains wikilinks, Tolaria can treat it as a relationship.
System Fields
Fields starting with _ are reserved for system behavior and hidden from standard property editing. They remain plain YAML, so they can still be inspected or changed in raw mode when needed.
Nested keys under a system field are also system-owned. For example, _sheet.cells.B6.num_fmt belongs to the sheet editor and should not appear as a normal user property.
