contents Investigations of the boundary of the quantum correlation set through the derivation of quantum Bell inequalities have gained increased attention in recent years, which are related to Tsirelson's problem and have significant applications in DI information processing. However, determining quantum Bell inequalities is a notoriously difficult task and only isolated examples are known. In this paper, we present families of (almost-)quantum Bell inequalities and highlight three foundational and DI applications. Firstly, quantum correlations on the non-signaling boundary are crucial in the DI randomness extraction from weak sources. In the practical Bell scenario of two players with two k-outcome measurements, we derive quantum Bell inequalities that show a separation of the quantum boundary from certain portions of the no-signaling boundary of dimension up to 4k-8, extending previous results. As an immediate by-product of this, we give a general proof of Aumann's Agreement theorem for quantum systems and the almost-quantum correlations, which implies Aumann's agreement theorem is a reasonable physical principle in the context of epistemics to pick out both quantum theory and almost-quantum correlations from general no-signaling theories. Secondly, we present a family of quantum Bell inequalities in the two players with m binary measurements scenarios, that serve to self-test the two-qubit singlet and 2m measurements. Interestingly, this claim generalizes the result for m=2 discovered by Tsirelson-Landau-Masanes and shows an improvement over the state-of-the-art DIRA. Lastly, we use our quantum Bell inequalities to derive the general form of the principle of no advantage in nonlocal computation, which is an information-theoretic principle that serves to characterize the quantum correlation set. With this, we provide the most precise characterization of the quantum boundary known so far.
