All of it: the words, the place, the proof
This home's west bedroom window has no shade of any kind outside the glass, and every weatherseal or attic-insulation upgrade this library already offers only slows heat that has already gotten into the room. A freestanding frame set off the wall with a native deciduous vine planted at its base stops the sun before it ever reaches the wall, and unlike a one-time seal or fill, it gets more effective every year the vine grows, then drops its leaves each winter and lets the low sun back in. This is not a substitute for this library's own shade-tree planting archetypes: a vine on a frame shades this window by the end of this summer, at a fraction of a tree's footprint and cost, where a newly planted shade tree takes roughly fifteen years to reach the same window.
Fund it for $195. 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. Confirm with the resident which ground-floor window gets the frame (a west or south-facing window with the most direct afternoon sun), confirm no buried utility line runs through the planting spot, and photograph the bare wall and window before work.
- 2. Confirm the chosen vine species against the Texas Invasives / Texas Invasive Plant Database watch list before buying or planting anything; this rung plants Virginia creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), a Texas-native deciduous vine.
- 3. Set the frame's footings with a post-hole digger or hand auger to a shallow depth, standing the finished frame at least 6 to 8 inches off the wall face on its own footings, never touching or leaning on the siding; assemble the frame with hand or cordless tools only.
- 4. Plant the vine at the base of the frame, mulch and water it in, and train the first growth onto the frame; photograph the finished frame and planting.
What counts as done
- Written or recorded permission from the resident
- Confirmation that the planted species does not appear on the Texas Invasives / Texas Invasive Plant Database watch list
- Photo of the finished frame standing at least 6 to 8 inches off the wall face on its own footings
- Photo of the vine planted and watered in at the base of the frame
- Confirmation that no digging occurred within an unconfirmed buried-utility location
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
The standard this serves
Energy Efficiency Audit. Energy efficiency work begins with the walkthrough audit, the kind the ASHRAE standard describes: a trained eye moving through a building, reading the bills, the walls, the lights, and the equipment, and coming out with the short list of fixes worth doing first. Mastery looks like an auditor who can feel where a building is bleeding money within the hour, and prove it on paper. That instinct is trained by repetition on real buildings. This packet is one repetition: one system observed, one reading taken, one finding recorded the way the standard asks.
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_1789314110818_fczxgmu","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
