Contributions summary:Sam primarily contributed to the `ember-template-lint` repository, which is a linter for Ember templates. Their contributions involved refining the validation rules for ARIA roles, restructuring the `VALID_ROLES` set, and adding missing roles based on WAI-ARIA specifications. They also implemented a new rule, `no-valueless-arguments`, to enforce best practices in template usage by validating named arguments. Furthermore, they removed the `no-model-argument-in-route-templates` and `no-mut-helper` rules from the `recommended` configuration, suggesting a focus on refining the linter's ruleset.
