Agito isn't a "smaller project," it was considered 'equal' with Versus and XIII and Haeresis will be the same. Going by the compilation standards, each game is a jump off point; basically even something like Agito could spawn sequels, manga, merchandise, etc. based on itself.
Canon wise SE said all the games take place in the same universe but in vastly different locations at different time periods. There's probably hundreds or even thousands of years separating them so I wouldn't really expect Lightning to pop up in Versus XIII, but at the same time I would expect to direct references to one another. Nomura and Kitase like to do things like that.
