About

Chalkline is a reference site, an AI agent, and a tool stack built for Australian residential builders. One founder. Plain English. NCC and AS citations.

Who runs it

Dan, Chalkline. Solo construction specialist with experience across residential build, tendering, contracts, and the messy paperwork between them.

How the wiki works

• Every article is reviewed quarterly. The "last updated" date on the page is the source of truth.
• NCC and AS clauses are paraphrased, never reproduced verbatim. Sources are linked.
• Wiki content is licensed CC BY 4.0. Quote it, copy it, build on it. Just credit Chalkline.
• State variants (NSW, VIC, QLD etc.) are tagged at the article level, not the pillar.

How the chat agent works

• Free tier: 10 questions per day. Members: unlimited.
• Answers cite the wiki articles they were drawn from.
• On regulatory questions, the agent will refuse and point to the official source if it can't cite.
• Not legal or financial advice. For disputes, see a lawyer or accountant.
