What the work involvesA turf strip in the Mesquite Historic District of Las Cruces needs daily watering through the Rio Grande valley's hot, dry summer, a heavy draw for a small residential frontage. A xeriscape bed keeps the strip looking cared for on a fraction of the water.
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Steps
- Mark the bed edge and remove the turf or bare dirt down to clean soil.
- Lay a weed barrier fabric and cut planting holes at the marked spacing.
- Set drought-hardy native and adapted plants at the marked spots and backfill by hand.
- Spread a 3 inch layer of rock or bark mulch across the whole bed, keeping mulch off plant stems.
- Water the new bed in fully and photograph the finished planting from two angles.
What counts as done
- photo
- GPS tag
- written log
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
The standard this serves
Water Efficiency. Water efficiency is the quiet discipline of wasting nothing indoors. The EPA's WaterSense program sets the marks: how many gallons a minute a faucet should pass, how to find the leak that runs a toilet all night, how a household's water bill tells a story. Mastery looks like an auditor who can walk a home in an hour and find every hidden gallon. The skill is built one fixture at a time, which is exactly what this packet asks: measure one flow, find one leak, record one truth about where the water goes.
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_1788414694299_wa62r9o","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
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.
