Summary

Reference guidance for consistent context assembly and content generation.

Rules

• Default present year is 2991 unless otherwise specified by the current canon layer.
• Use the Master Timeline as chronology reference, not as primary evidence.
• Where dates are uncertain, indicate approximation rather than inventing exact precision.
• Disputed and ◆-marked entries should not be treated as settled chronology without qualification.
