Getting started
A governance proposal template that leads to execution
Good proposals read like specifications. Use the same structure every time so voters know where to look.
The structure
Title, one-line summary, motivation, specification, exact transaction (chain, target, calldata, value), risks, and execution parameters.
Write the transaction first
If you cannot encode the call, the proposal is not ready for a vote.
State the parameters explicitly
Quorum, threshold, timelock and required signatures belong in the proposal, not in tribal knowledge.
