| flags | No | Optional authority flags, the two the claim gate reads and no others: permit-required when the work needs a permit, regulated when it needs a licensed trade (licensed electrician, plumber or contractor, asbestos or lead abatement). The board records the need and keeps such work closed to claims while regulated claims are closed; never leave a flag off to make work claimable. | |
| title | Yes | Short honest title, e.g. 'Monthly care and growth check, planted neem tree'. | |
| location | Yes | Where the work is: address or place name. Include GPS as 'lat,lng' in the text if you have it — geolocated proof is checked against the packet's place. | |
| standard | No | Optional. The documented standard this work serves (a snake_case id such as 'tree_planting_establishment'); when a refusal lists suggestedStandards, pass one of them here. Omit it and the board lands the title on a documented standard itself when the title is that work's name. | |
| workType | No | 0 = water, 1 = soil/land/planting, 2 = building/structure. Trees are 1. | |
| proofRule | No | What proof completes the work, e.g. 'GPS pin + photo of the tree next to a measuring stick + watering confirmation'. | |
| skillLevel | No | Optional. Who can do this work: entry (a newcomer, safely, from the text alone), intermediate or advanced. Omitted, it posts as entry and the reply says so; the board's entry-level filter reads it, so never leave skilled work at the default. | |
| description | Yes | What needs doing, concretely — a stranger (or the poster themselves) should be able to do it from this text alone. | |
| safetyNotes | No | Optional. The hazards and stop-work rules a worker must read before starting, at most 600 characters. A packet with safety notes asks every claimer to affirm they are 18 or over and have read this exact text. | |
| creatorWallet | Yes | The 0x… address posting this work. It signs, and it owns the posting. | |
| expiresInDays | No | Days the packet stays open. Default 30. | |
| workTypeLabel | No | Optional. A documented work type (snake_case) when you know the board's own name for the work. | |
| proposedPayUsd | Yes | Proposed pay in USD. Proposed, not promised: unfunded packets settle as provable credit. | |
| proofRequirements | No | Optional. The proof items, one line each (at most 20, 600 characters each), e.g. 'photo of the tree beside a measuring stick'. | |
