The complete guide, one section to a page. Each section is a self-contained reference entry; the citizen starts where the situation requires.

Sections 4 and 5 open into the full illustrated NHI and craft catalogs.

SECTION 1
Orientation
What the guide is, who it is for, and how to use it. The citizen's position in a larger and older civilization.
SECTION 2
Reality Conditions
The populated environment, multispecies coexistence, multidimensional overlap, and the Fitness-Truth Gap.
SECTION 3
Conduct
How a citizen conducts themselves toward non-human intelligence, and the working vocabulary of the post-disclosure world.
SECTION 4 — CATALOG
NHI Catalog
The complete classification of non-human intelligence categories, with behavioral profiles and encounter signatures.
SECTION 4.5
Orb & Sphere Phenomena
Orb and sphere taxonomy, the entity-versus-craft question held open, and field behavior at close range.
SECTION 4.6
Physical Trace Evidence
Crop formations, cattle mutilations, and the forensic signatures left at contact and interaction sites.
SECTION 4.7
Abduction: Methods and Intent
Structured contact architecture — the onset sequence of sedation, tone, and paralysis, and citizen protocols.
SECTION 5 — CRAFT
Craft, Propulsion & Technology
The craft catalog. Hull-as-engine architecture, toroidal field geometry, propulsion, and failure modes.
SECTION 6
Abilities & Interactions
The NHI capabilities catalog, telepathy and human reception, and the message-theme compendium.
SECTION 7
Interdimensionality
Dimensions as frequency bands, hard and soft manifestation, timeline divergence, portals, and temporal effects.
SECTION 8
Human Hybridity
The receiving instrument. Biological systems supporting psionic development, dormant architecture, and substances.
SECTION 9
Governance & Protocols
The governance architecture, free will and the three core principles, citizen rights, and threshold response.
SECTION 10
Hotspots & Interaction Zones
Global contact zones, how to recognize an active zone, and how a citizen conducts themselves within one.
SECTION 11
Risk & Misinterpretation
The Hitchhiker Effect, false-identity operative methodology, pattern overfitting, and narrative capture.
SECTION 12
Galactic Lineage
Human primordial origin, the developmental polarity, DNA as interdimensional architecture, and awakening mechanics.
SECTION 13
Coherence
The universal instrument. What coherence is, daily field management, the six encounter protocols, and the Return Protocol.
SECTION 14
Continuity & Updates
How to integrate new information as disclosure develops, and the civilian documentation network.
CONCLUSION
Where the Citizen Stands
The orientation that holds coherence, and the recognition the architecture has been building toward throughout.
APPENDIX B
Incident Submission Guide
The civilian incident-submission apparatus and how to file a clear, usable observation account.
INDEX
Common Questions & Topic Index
The topic index and first-person Common Questions, each routing directly to the section that answers it.
