DAO Governance
When to Use
- Creating or voting on governance proposals
- Managing vote delegation
- Interacting with DAO treasuries (Gnosis Safe, timelocks)
- Analyzing proposal outcomes and quorum
- Configuring on-chain vs off-chain (Snapshot) governance
Prerequisites
- MCP:
blockchain-rpc-server,defi-protocol-server - Skills: skill-02, skill-09 (treasury compliance)
Workflow
1. Governance Frameworks
| Framework | Voting | Execution | |-----------|--------|-----------| | OpenZeppelin Governor | On-chain | TimelockController | | Compound Governor Bravo | On-chain | Timelock | | Snapshot | Off-chain (signed) | Multisig execution | | Aragon OSx | On-chain | Plugin-based |
2. Proposal Lifecycle
- Draft — encode calls array (targets, values, calldatas)
- Submit —
propose(targets, values, calldatas, description) - Voting delay — wait
votingDelayblocks - Voting period — cast votes (for/against/abstain)
- Queue — if quorum met and majority for
- Timelock delay — wait
timelock.delay() - Execute —
execute(targets, values, calldatas, descriptionHash)
3. Voting
governor.castVote(proposalId, support); // 0=against, 1=for, 2=abstain
governor.castVoteWithReason(proposalId, support, reason);- Check voting power at
proposal.startBlocksnapshot - Delegate before snapshot block to activate voting power
- Use
getVotes(account, blockNumber)to verify power
4. Delegation
- Self-delegate to activate token voting power
- Delegate to trusted representative
- Monitor delegate voting history before delegating
5. Treasury Management
- Treasuries typically held in Gnosis Safe or TimelockController
- Large withdrawals require multi-sig + timelock
- Screen all outbound transfers via compliance MCP
- Diversify and report per DAO transparency standards
Analysis
For each proposal, report:
- Quorum required vs current votes
- For/against split and notable voters
- Impact of executable calls (token transfers, parameter changes)
- Timelock ETA if passed
