What an edition of this series does not do.

The Foundry systems an edition draws on.
What each system is designed to supply to Universe Annual Synthesis; an edition cites a record only once it exists and has passed review.

| NXS-CMD (integrated posture and executive synthesis) | Council, Portfolios | The year’s deliberations, gate decisions and portfolio movement |
| NXS-DSS (decision cases and deliberation) | Decisions | The option appraisals the exercises produced |
| NXS-LAB (research, experiments and simulations) | Experiments | Exercise and test records with their limitations |
