## Meaning

xs:int: A signed 32-bit XML Schema integer from -2147483648 to 2147483647.

An XSD type constrains XML, rather than declaring a Lua return or the payload type of event.param. A valid schema value does not prove a successful game effect.

## Schema structure

`W3C XML Schema`

| Property | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Construction | `builtin` |
| Base type | [`xs:integer`](wiki:schema-xs-integer-5c99925f) |

| Constraint | Value |
| --- | --- |
| `minInclusive` | `-2147483648` |
| `maxInclusive` | `2147483647` |

restriction narrows a base type; union accepts one of its branches; list describes whitespace-separated items. Enumeration values in one restriction are alternatives. Pattern syntax is XML Schema regex, not Lua patterns or JavaScript RegExp. Constraints inherited from the base type still apply.

## Example and result

```text
12
```

**What happens:** 12 is within range; 2147483648 exceeds the upper bound.

Object and group variables must already exist in the correct MD / AI context. These are learning fragments, not a complete runnable mission.
