# What is Lucia Fieldwork

> A calm, focused home for property maintenance — every issue in one place, with photos, approvals, and an honest status.

Lucia Fieldwork is a small, focused web app for **logging and tracking maintenance issues at a
property** — built for the people actually standing in front of the broken pool pump.

Maintenance work usually lives in chat threads: a photo here, a price there, a "did the plumber
ever come?" three scrolls up. Fieldwork gives every problem **one page of its own** — what it is,
where it is, photos, notes, whether the owner approved it, what it costs, and what happens next.
Chat stays for chatting. Fieldwork is where the *facts* live.

## What an issue carries

Each maintenance issue is a single living record:

* **The problem** — a short title, the area of the property, a description, and **photos**
  (before, during, and the all-important "after" shot).
* **How much it matters** — severity and guest impact, tracked separately from status, so an
  urgent problem can't hide behind a tidy label.
* **Money** — estimated cost, actual cost, and an explicit cost state, so "roughly €450" and
  "we spent €450" are never confused.
* **Permission** — whether owner approval is needed, requested, given, or declined.
* **The trail** — append-only notes and a complete event history: every change, who made it, when.

## Honest by design

Fieldwork inherits Lucia's [truth-state doctrine](/lucia/foundation/truth-state-doctrine): the
app never lets a record *imply* something that hasn't happened.

<Note>
  A vendor's name on an issue means "this is who we have in mind" — not "they've been called."
  **Scheduled** requires a real date. **Verified** means a person actually looked at the fix.
  The system enforces this, which is what makes the record worth trusting.
</Note>

Statuses move through a real lifecycle — logged, reviewed, approved, scheduled, in progress,
completed, verified — and the app only ever offers the *legal next moves*, so the record can't
drift away from reality.

## Where it stands

Fieldwork is **built and fully tested**, and is being prepared for its **first pilot at
Villa Valentin**. Access is invitation-only while the pilot gets underway. It runs as a
standalone companion to the main [Lucia platform](/lucia/start-here-lucia-ai/start-here-lucia-system) —
lessons learned in the field flow back into Lucia's operations intelligence.
