The machines that stay.
A dual-track program for multi-year neighborhood repair — under community authority. Not rentals. Not patrol robots.
Garden beds
Mow / lot
Inspect / haul
Supervised labor
Fixed order. Expandable frame.
Borrowed from the D.C. advocacy packet discipline: every Lab package keeps a stable spine so Israel can upload, Ebony can distill, and partners can audit. Structure first. Animation second. Never the reverse.
Capacity that stays.
We are not seeking short-term rentals. P0 is in-kind donation or a 36–60 month low- or no-cost lease, with training and spare parts. A ≤30-day trial is allowed only with a written conversion option.
Dual-track parity: Track A production (FarmBot, outdoor utility) and Track B embodied labor (quadrupeds, supervised humanoids). Both first-class. Safety bar on B is equal or stricter.
Fix the windows — not police them.
Broken-windows policing is rejected. Physical neglect is real; repair is the response. Prototype codes: lot clean · sidewalk rinse assist · fence mend · window secure/repair assist · garden plant · gutter clear (ground-safe) · litter · tote/haul · non-biometric inspection · steward training loops.
Success = lots stabilized, fences up, beds alive, fleet still on inventory at month twelve — not demo view counts.
Induction, not seduction.
Pinker: concrete, true, short. West: people as authorities, no poverty safari. Cialdini: real reciprocity, authentic proof, multi-year ask — no fake scarcity.
