- Unified service templates into generic systemctl templates - Introduced reusable filter plugins for script path handling - Updated path variables and service/timer definitions - Migrated roles (backup, cleanup, repair, etc.) to use systemctl role - Added sys-daemon role for core systemd cleanup - Simplified timer handling via sys-timer role Note: This is a large refactor and some errors may still exist. Further testing and adjustments will be needed.
