All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Shield the porch or yard light at home 1 near Kokernot Park, Alpine, to a dark-sky-compliant design. This home's unshielded porch or yard light throws glare upward and outward all night, wasting electricity and washing out the Trans-Pecos night sky the region's dark-sky designation depends on.
Fund it for $80. 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 the fixture with the resident: a ground-level porch, yard, or garage light only, and photograph the bare, unshielded fixture before starting.
- 2. Power off the fixture at its switch or breaker before touching any wiring or lamp.
- 3. Install a full-cutoff shield or a shielded dark-sky-compliant fixture so light points down and not outward or upward.
- 4. Restore power and photograph the shielded fixture lit at night alongside the daytime after photo, confirming no upward glare.
What counts as done
- Written or recorded permission from the resident
- Before photo of the unshielded fixture, day and night
- Power confirmed off at the switch/breaker before work began
- After photo of the shielded fixture, day and night, showing light directed downward only
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_1790811325994_gpsaf4w","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
