All of it: the words, the place, the proof
The shoreline at Cooley Landing, a former dump the community turned into its only bayfront park, still collects wind-blown and tide-carried trash against its marsh edge. This stretch of the Bay Trail is East Palo Alto's front porch on the bay, and the marsh beside it is endangered-species habitat. A monthly sweep from the trail keeps both clean.
Fund it for $180. 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
- Walk the trail and paved shoreline edges with bags, gloves, and grabbers.
- Collect litter from the trail and dry upper edge only, never step into the marsh or mud.
- Tally item types on the data card and sort recycling.
- Weigh and stage bags at park bins.
- Photograph before and after plus the tally card.
What counts as done
- GPS-tagged before and after photos of the same stretch
- Photo of the completed data card
- Photo of weighed bags on a hand scale
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
The standard this serves
Coastal Habitat. Coastal habitat is the green fringe where land meets sea: eelgrass meadows, kelp beds, salt marsh. Acre for acre these are among the most life-giving places on Earth, nursery to the fish and buffer to the storm, and NOAA's assessment methods exist because they are quietly shrinking. Mastery looks like a person who can survey a stretch of shore and say, with evidence, whether the meadow is spreading or retreating. This packet is one piece of that watching: one site, one careful observation, one record added to the long ledger of the coast.
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_1789700640163_2qkdewm","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
