All of it: the words, the place, the proof
A hoop net sits staked in the shallows of a creek feeding Lavaca Bay near this public access -- its funnel entrance still open and its tag gone or expired, it keeps drawing in and holding fish and turtles that swim in and cannot find their way back out, because nobody has run it in weeks.
Fund it for $110. 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, locate the net's stake and float and confirm it carries no current tag and shows no sign of a recent check.
- 2. Confirm coordination with a TPWD game warden or the regional inland fisheries office before removing a net that is not unmistakably abandoned.
- 3. Using a reach pole or by hand from the bank, draw the net's stake and frame toward the bank; never wade into the creek to reach it.
- 4. Open the net's tail end on the bank, release any live catch back toward the water, and empty out any dead catch and debris.
- 5. Coil the net and its lines, pull the stake, stage everything for haul-out and disposal, and photograph the cleared spot.
What counts as done
- Before photo of the staked net in the shallows
- Confirmation of TPWD coordination before removal
- Confirmation retrieval was by hand or reach pole from the bank, no wading
- Photo of any live catch released and the net emptied
- After photo of the cleared spot with GPS
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_1789885068461_xxgevwt","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
