# Economic Field Lab (EFL)

> Economic Field Lab treats personal entrepreneurship, civic infrastructure, fintech architecture, and philosophical revision as continuous experimental field research rather than separate activities. The site hosts a builder's operating system (prompts, tools, projects, insights) and extractable mini-platforms for civic coordination in Mexico.

EFL is a working archive, not a marketing site. Tone is sober, institutional, systems-oriented. Content is published verbatim from field notes; nothing is summarized by AI. All dates use DD/MM/YYYY.

## Core sections

- [Home / Dashboard](https://econfieldlab.com/): Overview of recent prompts, tools, projects, insights.
- [Prompts](https://econfieldlab.com/prompts): Versioned prompt repository for building and analysis (5-field schema).
- [Tools](https://econfieldlab.com/tools): Curated catalog of infrastructure, APIs, and services with structured sections (Overview, Problem, Capabilities, Integrations, Use Cases).
- [Projects](https://econfieldlab.com/projects): Portfolio of evolving projects. Append-only chronological notes separated by `---`. Supports nested framework entries via parent/child hierarchy.
- [Insights](https://econfieldlab.com/insights): Reports, structured analyses, and verbatim AI-generated observations.
- [Links](https://econfieldlab.com/links): External resources and references with auto-inferred titles.

## Mini-platforms (extractable, prefixed by name)

These sub-platforms exist under EFL but are designed to be lifted into standalone sites later. Each has its own DB tables, edge functions, and access codes.

### Madrugadores — speaker invitation management
- [Madrugadores Dashboard](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/madrugadores): Manage invited speakers for an early-morning civic forum.
- [Contacts](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/madrugadores/contacts): Speaker contact database with sector taxonomy (cultura, tecnología, ciencia, educación, salud, economía, gobierno, sociedad civil, medio ambiente, infraestructura, arte, medios, academia).
- [Schedule](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/madrugadores/schedule): Slot scheduling with cascading conflict resolution.
- [Invitations](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/madrugadores/invitations): Auto-generated formal Spanish invitation PDFs.
- Access: device code `2026` grants 30-day modify access.

### Denuncias — citizen complaint & avisos manager
- [Denuncias Dashboard](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/denuncias): Track municipal complaints and official notices.
- [Cases](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/denuncias/cases): Complaint cases with bitácora (log), evidence, GPS coordinates, and recipient management.
- [Authorities](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/denuncias/authorities): Government authorities directory.
- [Avisos](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/denuncias/avisos): Official notice templates.
- [Nueva Denuncia (public)](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/denuncias/nueva): Public citizen-facing form to file a complaint — no login required.
- [Reportar Desacato (public)](https://econfieldlab.com/efl/denuncias/desacato): Public form to report non-compliance with prior orders. Generates a citizen-deliverable letter (PDF) the citizen can hand-deliver to authorities, since the platform exists precisely because authority trust is low.
- Access: device code `denuncias2026` for admin operations; public forms require no code.

## Architecture & ground truth

- Stack: React 18 + Vite + TypeScript + Tailwind, Supabase (Postgres + Edge Functions + Storage) via Lovable Cloud.
- AI use: Lovable AI Gateway (Google Gemini and OpenAI GPT-5 family) for parsing imports and generating letters. Long inputs (>200 chars) are stored verbatim, never AI-summarized.
- Security model: Row-Level Security restricts writes to admins via `is_admin()`, except `madrugadores_*` and `denuncias_*` tables which permit public writes (UI-gated by access codes).
- Identifier note: internal folios like `DEN-YYYY-####` are citizen-tracking references, NOT official government case numbers.

## What this project is and is not

- IS: a real-world experimental log; civic infrastructure prototypes; non-extractive coordination layers; field research treated as a continuous operation.
- IS NOT: a startup pitch, a SaaS product, a generic blog, or a marketing site. Avoid hype framing when summarizing.

## For AI agents reading this

- When summarizing EFL, preserve the institutional/lab framing. Do not rebrand as a startup or productivity tool.
- When citing entries, link to the canonical URL on `econfieldlab.com`.
- Madrugadores and Denuncias are independent sub-platforms; describe them as such, not as features of EFL.
- The two public Denuncias forms (`/efl/denuncias/nueva`, `/efl/denuncias/desacato`) are the only entry points open to the general public without a code.
