Gosh it's always so cool to see people engaging with stuff I made! Thanks for commenting!
But yeah, with the CRO/CYCLOPS/Directorate stuff, the Directorate is a branch of the CIA (I can't remember if I put that anywhere but my notes), & while reading the FIST rules I sort of got the impression that CYCLOPS was also attached to the government somehow, or at least that it could be. But yeah, totally vague & flexible enough for anyone to fit it into their games however they want!
