  "repo": "lincolnnunnally/app-porchlight",
  "requestType": "existing_app_improvement",
  "doNotDeploy": false,
  "purpose": "Help working people who paid taxes their whole life keep use of their home and keep family value after death — while hunting off-market houses in Vidalia / Toombs, then operating those homes as fair rent: leases, payments, work, and a waitlist, not a listing machine.",
  "audience": [
    "Homeowners 60–75 still living at home, house is primary asset, planning 5+ years ahead",
    "Adult children helping a parent plan early",
    "Church and community connectors who refer, not sell",
    "Existing Porchlight hunters looking for off-market houses in Toombs County",
    "Lincoln operating repaired houses as fair rent for working families"
  ],
  "barrierRemoved": "Fear and silence around Georgia Medicaid estate recovery, realtor-priced listings, and the mess of operating a small set of homes with a notebook.",
  "needAddressed": "A clear early plan with an attorney in the loop, a quiet path to a house before it hits the market, and a neighborly ledger once someone lives there.",
  "movementTowardLife": "Fear → a neighborly plan. A dark house → a porch light that stays on for the person who needs it, then for the next family on the waitlist.",
  "appBoundaries": [
    "Do not invent law.",
    "Do not let the app be the lawyer.",
    "Do not generate a transfer packet inside the 5-year look-back / crisis season.",
    "Do not hide fees.",
    "Do not process rent money or run evictions from this app.",
    "Do not create a competing app — this is vNext of Porchlight, not a new brand.",
    "Do not deploy this vNext until owner approval. Live hunt stays as it is."
  ],
  "transformationOutcome": "The elder keeps occupancy while they need the home. Family keeps sale proceeds after documented costs and a published stewardship fee. Later, the same house is rented fairly to someone already waiting — leases, payments, and work in one place.",
