      description: 'When `true`, the metadata response adds `allowed_values` ([{label, value}]) on every picklist-capable field — `ENUM`, `SYSTEM_ENUM`, `MULTI_ENUM`, `STRING_SYSTEM_ENUM`, and `LOOKUP` fields targeting system picklist modules (status, priority, category, type, ...).

        Default `false` keeps the original metadata payload (no enrichment, no extra DB calls).

        Use this to discover acceptable write values without round-tripping `GET /picklist/{moduleName}/{fieldName}` for every picklist field.
