Court for Bnei Noah: Set of core literature to base rulings

This statement is part of a series of twenty requests for piskei din (legal rulings) that have been submitted to the Beis Din by those who follow its rulings.  While full piskei din (legal rulings) are in preparation, a brief summary is presented. The summary below is not meant to be used as a source for deriving any practical consequences. It will be replaced at a later date with a formal ruling.

On the 6th of Tevet, the Beis Din for Bnei Noah was asked:

Q. What is the set of core literature to base rulings?
What literature is considered authoritative concerning issues of the Bnei Noach? Rambam, Meiri, Yavetz, Arizal?

Answer. All the traditional sources and more. Of course for [rulings made by the Beis Din for] some people, certain sources will have a higher weight than for others, just like the differences between communities of Jews.
