Abstract: In this paper, we extend the collinear superspace formalism to include the full range of supersymmetric interactions. Building on the effective field theory rules developed in a companion paper - "Navigating Collinear Superspace" - we construct collinear superspace Lagrangians for theories with non-trivial - and -term auxiliary fields. For (massless) Wess-Zumino models, the key ingredient is a novel type of Grassmann-valued supermultiplet whose lowest component is a (non-propagating) fermionic degree of freedom. For gauge theories coupled to charged chiral matter, the key ingredient is a novel type of vector superfield whose lowest component is a non-propagating gauge potential. This unique vector superfield is used to construct a gauge-covariant derivative; while such an object does not appear in the standard full superspace formalism, it is crucial for modeling gauge interactions when the theory is expressed on a collinear slice. This brings us full circle, by showing that all types of theories in four dimensions can be constructed in collinear superspace from purely infrared considerations. We speculate that supersymmetric theories with could also be implemented using similar collinear superspace constructions.
