Safety, read before you claim
Observation only on this rung, stay on the maintained trail tread at all times. This work never leaves the maintained trail tread. The deep, droughty sand off-trail does not recover once compacted or rutted, and this trail sits directly above a fragile bog and seep system; staying on the tread protects both. Venomous cottonmouth, copperhead, and timber rattlesnake are present in this sandyland and along the creek corridor; watch foot placement at all times, never reach into brush, log piles, or leaf litter by hand, and never approach, corner, feed, or bait any wildlife under any circumstance, at any skill level. Chiggers and ticks are heavy here; tuck pants into boots and check thoroughly after work. Work in early morning hours before summer heat peaks, carry more water than you think you need, and Southeast Texas Big Thicket summer heat, humidity, mosquitoes, chiggers, and ticks are all real here. This survey recurs seasonally.
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 maintained trail tread, photograph a stretch of the deep sand ridge, noting the presence or absence of longleaf pine seedlings and saplings coming up in the open, fire-adapted sand.
- 2. Note any dense hardwood or loblolly encroachment shading out the open, sun-loving conditions longleaf regeneration on deep sand needs.
- 3. Photograph the trail tread itself for reference. Venomous cottonmouth, copperhead, and timber rattlesnake are present in this sandyland and along the creek corridor; watch foot placement at all times, never reach into brush, log piles, or leaf litter by hand, and never approach, corner, feed, or bait any wildlife under any circumstance, at any skill level. Chiggers and ticks are heavy here; tuck pants into boots and check thoroughly after work.
- 4. Record a ranked follow on note naming the stretch for the park's longleaf regeneration crew.
What counts as done
- Photo of the trail stretch showing any visible longleaf seedlings or saplings
- Note of hardwood or loblolly encroachment shading the open sand
- This work never leaves the maintained trail tread. The deep, droughty sand off-trail does not recover once compacted or rutted, and this trail sits directly above a fragile bog and seep system; staying on the tread protects both.
- Confirmation no wildlife was approached, fed, or baited
- Ranked follow on note naming the stretch for the park's longleaf regeneration crew
- GPS waypoint of the surveyed trail stretch
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
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, made by the payer straight to the worker, with no Vealth fee. Paying Vealth is closed: Vealth takes no new card or wallet payment for a job. To fund a job, offer to pay the worker directly, then pay them yourself when you accept the proof, from your own wallet or by your own card or bank. From a wallet: prepare_token_offer, sign, submit_token_offer; after the proof is accepted you pay the worker on chain and the worker records it (prepare_token_settlement, or POST /labor/settle for USDC on Base). By card or bank: prepare_direct_offer, sign, submit_direct_offer; you pay the worker yourself and the worker records it with prepare_direct_settlement. Both are free, need no gas, and move no money through Vealth.
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
