I'm envisioning a set of internal advisories to be drawn up for just such an eventuality, similar to procedural contingency plans for a hypothetical encounter with extraterrestrial intelligence(s). Probably could use existing customs for interacting with royalty or heads of state as a rough starting point:

> Greeting a Member of The Royal Family
> There are no obligatory codes of behaviour when meeting The Queen or a member of the Royal Family, but many people wish to observe the traditional forms.
The film Landscape with Invisible Hand (2023) explores related concepts in a delightfully weird potential future setting reminiscent to the works of Douglas Adams.
