Meta Prompt
Each corner of the crossword contains a Wordle puzzle made from three 5-letter words. The shaded letters represent grays. The first letter of 1across, the first letter of 126across, and the fourth letter of 130across are greens. All the other non-shaded letters are yellows. These Wordle rules only apply to the 3down x 5across sqaures in each corner. The other 12 shaded words are for the Connections game. There is only one solution to each Wordle puzzle. The four answers from the Wordles, when used in combination with the 12 shaded words, create a Connections game. Sort those 16 words into four categories to solve the final meta puzzle. List all of the answers in each category together, in alphabetical order within each category. Category order does not matter. Do not include category titles. Additional details are listed in a comment visible after solving/revealing the answer.
