# Snapshot Proposal

### Snapshot 

Snapshot is a popular DAO tool and interface for direct democrativ voting that allows holders to participate in large-scale governance without spending gas. Creating a proposal and voting are both free. Proposals and votes are signed messages, stored on IPFS. Signatures are easily verifiable online. **You can find Deep Work's Snapshot page at:**

## Raising a proposal&#x20;

When raising a proposal in Snapshot, please first ensure the value of your work and use [this template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/19ggTisEa0S8Zu_c5n8smA4sRgTwEJm7TQRE7bdz1wtA/edit) to write a detailed description.&#x20;

{% hint style="danger" %}
Make sure you use the template.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are a representative, you may not need to raise a snapshot proposal depending on urgency. See the [review finance requests](/teams-departments/operations/roles/representative/workflow.md#review-finance-requests) in the representatives documentation.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

Submit your proposal here:

You can vote on proposals here:&#x20;

Guide to voting:&#x20;

{% embed url="<https://docs.snapshot.org/proposals/vote>" %}

## After a successful vote

If requesting funding or work, you'll need to set up a project in Deep Teams with a representative or project owner (and a stakeholder) to get paid.&#x20;

## If a proposal has objections

In case of a veto by a minority, a discussion needs to be started in the relevant Discord channel in order to provide space to the individuals who disagree. The goal of proposals is not a 50+% majority vote, but a solution in the range of everyone's tolerance. Nobody should feel excluded from the decision, even if the solution is not in the range of everyone's preference.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.deepwork.studio/working-at-deep-work/governance/snapshot-proposal.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
