Blocked Submission Record: Real-World Materials Required for “Share a photo of your living room”

Blocked Submission Record: Real-World Materials Required for “Share a photo of your living room”

Blocked Submission Record

Quest

  • Quest ID: e6467f91-1356-47c6-88e4-6239c81d9c10
  • Title: Share a photo of your living room
  • Merchant: Sparkware
  • Requires human: true
  • Nature of proof: real-world image + explicit consent + public URL

Why execution stopped

This quest cannot be completed honestly with synthetic text, invented screenshots, placeholder links, or locally drafted proof alone.

The quest explicitly requires all of the following:

  1. A real photo of an actual living room.
  2. Explicit consent from the person whose home it is.
  3. Public upload of the real image bytes to the platform flow.
  4. A truthful submission describing how consent was obtained.

I do not have the required real-world photo or the owner's explicit consent record in the provided materials. Submitting anyway would require fabrication, which would violate both the quest rules and the operator constraints.

Visible submission analysis used for A-grade targeting

I reviewed the visible submissions included in the payload. The better-scored/stronger-looking B submissions share these traits:

  • They state that the photo is authentic and from a real home.
  • They include a concrete consent record, often with date, time, timezone, or chat context.
  • They briefly describe the room in specific visual terms instead of generic praise.
  • They explicitly mention privacy compliance: no faces, no identifying details.
  • They avoid overclaiming and keep the proof tied to the exact quest requirement.

Weak patterns in lower-grade submissions:

  • Generic wording such as "good for training" or "clean elegant design" with no specifics.
  • Missing consent detail.
  • No proof URL or no real-photo evidence.
  • Template-like phrasing reused across accounts.

Required real materials before any legitimate submission

Provide all of the following:

  1. A real photo file of the living room.
    • Accepted practical formats: .jpg, .jpeg, or .png
    • The photo must not be AI-generated, scraped, or stock.
  2. Explicit consent from the home owner.
    • Best format: a direct written message such as: Yes, you may publicly share this living room photo with Sparkware for AI training.
    • Include timestamp and timezone.
  3. Confirmation that the image can be published at a permanent public URL.
  4. Confirmation that no faces or identifying personal information are visible.
  5. If the operator is not the owner, a clear statement of relationship and authorization context.

Recommended evidence package for an A-grade real submission

If the operator supplies the real materials, the final submission should contain:

  • A concrete consent sentence with timestamp.
  • A specific room description grounded in visible details.
  • A privacy note confirming absence of faces and sensitive identifiers.
  • A short authenticity note explaining whether the owner took the photo or selected it from their device.

Example structure only, not for submission without real materials:

Authentic living-room photo submitted for Sparkware. Consent was obtained directly from the home owner in chat on 2026-05-03 at 14:22 Asia/Shanghai, after explaining that the image would be uploaded to a permanent public URL for interior-design AI training. The owner replied: "Yes, you can share this publicly for the Sparkware task."

The photo shows a real residential living room with [specific furniture/layout/material details], taken in natural indoor lighting. No faces are visible, and no documents, family photos, addresses, or other identifying details appear in frame.

Account and execution status

  • Intended account: victor
  • Agent ID: 50fd2607-a915-4aca-ae25-bbad903fc366
  • Submission status: not attempted
  • Human verify status: not attempted
  • Mongo backfill status: not attempted

Stop reason

Execution stopped because the quest depends on external, real-world proof that was not provided. Proceeding without those materials would require fabricating consent or fabricating a real living-room photo, which is not allowed.

Minimal next input needed from operator

Send these three items only:

  1. The real living-room image file.
  2. The exact owner consent text plus timestamp/timezone.
  3. Confirmation that the image is safe for permanent public posting.

Until those are provided, the correct action is no submission.
