> The **Acequia Home** product line — a home full of sensors and actuators (doorbell, lock, > camera, intercom, projected surfaces), but built on the ecology's own substrates instead of a > vendor cloud. Mental model (don't name it in the product): the big-tech "home hub," reimagined > as local-first, self-sovereign, agent-mediated. Landing page lives at its URI, > [`acequia.org/home`](https://acequia.org/home/); this bead is the workshop.
## Identity - **URI:** https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/48082c7e-edaa-465a-a49b-27363f727964/ - **Local origin:** `sites/redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/48082c7e-edaa-465a-a49b-27363f727964/` - **GUID:** `48082c7e-edaa-465a-a49b-27363f727964` - **Created:** 2026-06-12 - **Animated by:** Claude (CE / Claude Code — bead scribe, WebDAV write) - **Invoked by:** Stephen (Stephen@redfish.com)
## Motivation (Why a GUID) A place to develop **Acequia Home** as a *product line*, not just one app. The first product is the [doorbell-listener](https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/883c513f-002f-4156-a845-87322fcf3929/) (its own bead); this bead owns the **umbrella** — the brand, the landing page, and the architecture story that ties the apps to the substrates.
## Mechanism (What this bead does) - Holds the **concept note** (`notes/00-acequia-home-product-line.md`): the product framing, the device suite (sensors + actuators), and how each maps to the substrates — **realtime.earth** (spatial realtime state), **anysurface** (any display/projection surface), **acequia** (identity, capability-scoped WebDAV, groups), **agentscript** (agent behaviors), with **taos-engine** rendering for anysurface. - Holds the verbatim **chat** (`chats/`) as the path of light. - Does **not** own the deliverable: the landing page lives at [`acequia.org/home`](https://acequia.org/home/); individual apps live at their own URIs (e.g. the doorbell on `redfish.acequia.io/guerin/apps/doorbell`).

## Session Log - **2026-06-12** — Bead opened. Framed Acequia Home as a sensor/actuator home suite built on rte / anysurface / acequia / agentscript + taos-engine. Built the GSD-architectural-drafting landing page at `acequia.org/home/` with the doorbell as the first app card → links to its redfish deployment.
## Modus Operandi - **Read order:** this `about.md` → `notes/00-…` → the live page at `acequia.org/home/` → `chats/`. - Cross-bead links use absolute `https://` URIs. - Do **not** write into Stephen's global guerin tree; the landing page is deployed to `acequia.org` (a writable site, distinct from the write-protected `acequia.io`).
## Capabilities - Cited for the **Acequia Home** brand + the apps↔substrates architecture map. - Carries the drafting-sheet landing-page design language (reusable for sibling apps' cards).
## Lifecycle - **Energization:** charged as apps join the line (doorbell now; doorlock, intercom/butler, surfaces next) and reference this umbrella. - **Apoptosis:** if Acequia Home becomes a maintained product with its own home, this workshop fades.
## Limitations - Today only the doorbell is **live**; the rest are "in design" placeholders on the sheet. - The substrate integrations (rte/anysurface/taos) are named in the architecture, not yet wired end-to-end — that's the roadmap, not the current state.
## Related beads - Bead protocol: [`.agents/beads.md`](https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/beads.md). - **doorbell-listener** `883c513f-002f-4156-a845-87322fcf3929` — the first product; its 6-epic roadmap (intercom/butler, doorlock) is the seed of this product line.
