## MAKING IT YOURS

This sample is a generic starting point.
Your real SecretSig should reflect how YOU actually think and work.

Take the quick quiz at secretsig.com to generate a personalized version in under 2 minutes.
Or take the full 25-question Signature Builder for a deeper profile.

The one rule: everything that affects AI behavior must be visible in the file.
No hidden state. No black box. What you read is what the AI reads.

## THE DECAY SYSTEM

WORKING fields carry a state and a review date:

- ACTIVE — in flight, check at the REVIEW date
- STABLE — done and persistent, no expiry
- ARCHIVE — no longer relevant, move to history

60 seconds at session start keeps your SecretSig lean and current.
