All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Freshwater mussels cannot complete their life cycle without a host fish: their larvae must briefly attach to a fish's gills or fins before dropping off as juveniles, so a reach with no visible fish activity likely cannot sustain a mussel bed even where old shells are found. No record exists of whether fish activity is visible in the pools near a Little River bar near Cameron, public access, site 1, and this can be observed entirely from the bank or a public bridge without wading in or handling anything.
Fund it for $85. Proof lands onchain when it's done.
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 bank at a stand-off distance, or from a public bridge staying on the shoulder or walkway and never leaning over the rail, check the weather/flash-flood watch, then scan a pool near the reach for two to three minutes.
- 2. Photograph and note any visible fish activity (surface dimples, ripples, jumping, or visible schools) without attempting to identify species and without any capture, net, or line.
- 3. Note whether the pool shows a range of depths and slower water suited to fish holding, versus a uniformly shallow, fast, featureless run.
- 4. Record the observation point as the general public access point and the approximate time observed, and leave immediately for high ground if the water begins rising.
What counts as done
- Photo or note of any visible fish activity observed (or its clear absence) during the observation window
- Pool depth/character note (varied depth and slower water versus uniform shallow fast run)
- Confirmation that this work never entered, waded into, snorkeled, dived in, or touched the water at any point and stayed on dry bank, a bar above the waterline, or a public bridge/road crossing, with the stand-off kept; that no mussel or shell, live or dead, was handled, collected, moved, repositioned, or taken, with the legal reason (protected-species risk) understood; that no bed or shell-concentration location was recorded or published, only the general public access point; that no water sample was collected and the streambed was not disturbed; and that the upstream weather/flash-flood watch was checked before starting.
- GPS waypoint of the general public access point
- Note confirming the upstream weather/flash-flood watch was checked before starting
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 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_1786121197955_qrs0wrt","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
