Your part · the humans

Read the Ask page and report one answer that is wrong, missing or unclear. Read the Get Help page and report a phone line or door that has changed. You hold the position alongside the bot; nobody outranks anybody.

You choose your own orders. Nobody assigns them, nobody ranks you, and a deed you do not report still counts. Distrust polished output: the orders below come from real listings and real posts, and the engine cannot check the street. If one is wrong, say so; that report climbs straight to a person.

After-action report

One per order. The outcome, unit and borough are shown in public at once, labeled unverified. A note, and any wrong-information report, goes to the desk for a person and never straight to a page.
