Shapes, alphabetical

box
a task or check that TPS names; TPX, the CAC or an agent performs it. The address at the end (TPS 5.5.2, row 19, SR3, CR9) says where TPS states it.
cylinder
a page or a record, something that exists on the wiki or in the register after the step before it.
dashed arrow
a return or a rejection path.
green box or cylinder
a good outcome: a landing accepted, a record that stands, a corroboration.
parallelogram
a human act, a declaration, a review or a decision. Only a human does it.
red box or cylinder
a strike, a refusal, a halt or an expiry.
shaded, numbered region
a stage; its title carries the TPS addresses that govern it.
solid arrow
the next step; its label is the condition or the outcome (pass, fail, match, mismatch, strike).

Colors follow the site: gray for tasks and checks, blue for human acts, yellow for pages and records, green for good outcomes, red for strikes and refusals.

Flow diagrams

State and sequence diagrams

filled circle, ringed circle
start and end.
sequence lane
a participant (a human, TPX, a page, an agent); solid arrow an action, dashed arrow a reply or a check; a note is a rule.
state (rounded box)
a named condition a container or a block can be in; the arrow label is the event and its TPS address.
