	* Optional penalty: an immediate side effect that affects 👥players or the world state after the build is finished. When an ⚙️''Initiative'' with a penalty completes, you flip the top card of the 📅''Event'' deck.

		+	=== 🧬 Output Signature ===
		+
		+	; Definition
		+	An '''Output Signature''' is the functional manifestation of a card’s '''Layer'''. It represents the permanent structural contribution a card makes to the engine (personal) or the world state (shared).
		+
		+	; Connection to Layer
		+	Each card produces one Output Signature that matches its assigned Layer number. For example, a Layer 7 card provides a Layer 7 Signature. While the Layer identifies the card’s category, the Signature is the "key" used to satisfy requirements for other Patterns or Initiatives.
		+
		+	; Examples (Social/Systemic)
		+	* '''Layer 7 (Presence):''' Provides a signature of unified attention.
		+	* '''Layer 8 (Social):''' Provides a signature of shared institutional trust.
		+	* '''Layer 9 (Story):''' Provides a signature of narrative continuity through time.
		+	* '''Layer 10 (Stewardship):''' Provides the ultimate signature of systemic resilience and future viability.
