The Source node allows one to access the value of the primitive or object that an IValue<T> contains. This node almost never should be created directly through the node menu, lest one knows exactly what they are doing. Source nodes are created by dragging out a field from an inspector, opening the Context menu, then pressing Source.
To access the underlying value that any arbitrary IValue<T> contains, one can spawn out a bare version of this node from the ProtoFlux menu, attach a GlobalReference<IValue<T>> to the slot of the node, drag the component header into the Source field of the Source node, and finally input the IValue<T> into the <source>Reference field of the GlobalReference. This can allow for a more efficient way to conditionally change values if said values are in different fields.
