Add OpenAIAdapter for the OpenAI chat completions API (apikey-chatgpt.txt or OPENAI_API_KEY). Set default model to arcee-ai/trinity-large-preview:free for the infospace pipeline and increase max_tokens from 4096 to 8192. Reprocess chapter 05 with Trinity Large (was Gemini: 1 truncated entity, now 19 complete entities). Process chapters 06 (Aurora Alpha, 10 entities) and 07 (Trinity Large, 15 entities including regenerated violent-policy.md). Canonical set now at 85 unique entities. Add entity archive policy: entities are never silently deleted. Retired entities move to output/entities/archive/ with a dated reason header. New CLI option: --archive-entity <slug> --reason "...". The --list output shows the archive count alongside the canonical set. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# rent of land
|
||
|
||
**Definition**
|
||
Rent of land is the portion of a commodity’s price that compensates the landowner for the use of the land’s natural produce. It represents a payment for the exclusive right to exploit the land’s resources, such as timber, grass, or other natural fruits, which would otherwise be freely gathered.
|

|
||
**Source Chapter**
|
||
*The Wealth of Nations*, Book 1, Chapter 6.
|
||
|
||
**Context**
|
||
Smith introduces rent of land after describing the transition to private property, noting that landlords “demand a rent even for its natural produce.” He explains that this rent becomes a component of the price of commodities like corn.

**Smith’s Original Wording**
|
||
> “When the land of any country has all become private property, the landlords… demand a rent even for its natural produce.”
|
||
|
||
**Modern Interpretation**
|
||
Rent of land corresponds to economic rent in contemporary theory—the surplus payment to a factor of production (land) that exceeds its opportunity cost. It is a key element in the factor‑income distribution of national accounts.
