All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Cut a curb opening to feed street runoff into a rain garden. Even a well-built rain garden does nothing for street flooding in Heliópolis if runoff can't actually reach it, most curbs run solid with no opening to let water in. Cutting a simple curb opening and directing flow into a planted rain garden pocket gives that water somewhere useful to go instead of pooling in the roadway. This is intermediate public-space build work.
Offer to pay $300. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.
Safety, read before you claim
Public-space work with hand tools only; no digging below 18 inches. Wear eye protection, hearing protection and a hi-vis vest near traffic; wet-cut or vacuum any cutting or grinding.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Steps
- Identify a curb section where runoff currently pools instead of draining.
- Cut a shallow opening in the curb using hand tools.
- Grade a small channel from the opening into the rain garden pocket.
- Plant water-tolerant species in the garden pocket.
- Photograph the finished curb cut and rain garden and record the date.
What counts as done
- Before photo of the solid curb and pooling area
- After photo of the cut curb and planted rain garden
- GPS-tagged date
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
The standard this serves
Green Stormwater Infrastructure. Green stormwater infrastructure is the city's way of handling rain the way a meadow does: rain gardens, planted swales, and permeable pavement that let a storm soak in instead of surging down a pipe. The EPA's inspection standard keeps these systems honest, because a neglected rain garden quietly stops working while still looking like a garden. Mastery is the inspector's eye: reading inlets, overflow, plants, and soil in a single practiced pass. This packet is one such inspection, one basin checked and one record filed, which is precisely how a thousand basins stay alive.
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
