How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Steps
- 1. From the easy Smith Spring and Manzanita Spring Loop trail at Frijole Ranch, photograph a bare or invasive choked limestone spring or seep margin without leaving the established trail.
- 2. Note whether the margin shows invasive plant cover, bare eroding soil, or intact native wetland cover.
- 3. Photograph the nearest trail marker or the Frijole Ranch museum for reference.
- 4. Record a ranked follow on note naming the margin for the restoration crew.
What counts as done
- Photo of the margin taken from the established loop trail
- Note of the margin condition (invasive cover, bare eroding soil, or intact native wetland cover)
- Photo of the nearest trail marker or the Frijole Ranch museum for reference
- Ranked follow on note naming the margin for the restoration crew
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
The standard this serves
Wetland Condition. Wetlands are the landscape's kidneys and nurseries at once: they filter the water, absorb the flood, and raise the young of half the creatures around them. The EPA's rapid assessment gives a trained visitor a way to grade one honestly: the plants present, the water's path, the soil, the wear at the edges. Mastery looks like walking a marsh and knowing, defensibly, how it is doing and what threatens it. This packet is one such visit, one wetland's condition recorded to the method. What is watched can be defended; unwatched wetlands quietly disappear.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1785417387222_x2ibg5b","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
