wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Klaat (read 2026-10-12 with fetch-page.mjs, citing The Helwinter Gate (Novel), Prologue and Chapter 1): infobox System 'Klaat System', Affiliation 'Imperium', Class 'Hive World'; 'Klaat is a Imperium Hive World which sometimes serves as a Naval refueling station'. https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Planets_(List) lists 'Klaat | Hive World | Klaat System | The Helwinter Gate (Novel), prologue'. A planet. NAME-COLLISION CHECK: no index record uses the id or label.
book-joinmedium
MENTIONED for The Helwinter Gate: named in the Prologue and Chapter 1 (Lexicanum Klaat); no permitted page says what happens there, so it is not called visited.
segmentumhigh
null, stated rather than guessed: the infobox Segmentum, Sector and Subsector are blank.
classlow
'hive', from the only description published: 'Hive World' (infobox and lead). No terrain or colour words are given, so the palette follows the hive designation itself rather than an invented look.
gposlow
inferred: named and unplaced, with no segmentum, sector, bearing or theatre published. Unsurveyed rim: rim_xy('klaat') = [940.0, 547.1] (the generator's function evaluated on its own, reproducing ras-shakeh's [394.2, 75.6] and nurades's [574.2, 926.7]; build_locations.py not run). The position carries no information. Z 3.2 is the zPolicy value (compute-z.mjs klaat 940.0 547.1).
erashigh
m41 only, with the novel. Allegiance 'imperium' (infobox).
systemIdhigh
'klaat' for the published 'Klaat System'.
no-system-surveyhigh
No systems/klaat.json: canon names the system but no star, sibling body or body count. The map synthesises its globe from this record.
