Aligned Delegates - Budget And Participation Requirements - Voting-Activity Metrics Section -

The budget stream allocated to a Ranked Delegate (RD) is modified based on their voting-activity metrics over the past six (6) months. This budget modification takes into account the overall participation of the Ranked Delegate in all votes they are eligible to cast as an Aligned Delegate (AD).

If an RD participates in less than 95% of all eligible votes within the last six (6) months, their RD budget stream is reduced. The reduction is applied on a proportional linear scale: for every percentage point below 95% voting activity, the RD’s budget is reduced correspondingly.

Should an RD’s voting activity fall to 75% of all eligible votes within the last six (6) months, they become completely ineligible to receive RD income. Their RD rank, and the budget eligibility associated with that rank, is transferred to the next highest-ranking AD, as determined by total amount of SKY delegated to their Delegate Contract.

Aligned Delegates - Budget And Participation Requirements - Signal Account Requirement Core -

RDs are required to maintain an active Signal account to facilitate communications related to emergency / urgent situations. This requirement applies regardless of whether an RD has been appointed to the Emergency Response Group. See A.1.8 - Emergency Response System - Emergency Response - Emergency Response Signal Group. RDs must provide their Signal username to the Core Facilitator.

The Core Facilitator is responsible for maintaining an internal registry of RDs’ Signal accounts. Because the ranked RDs are continually changing, the Core Facilitator must ensure that the internal registry is maintained on a frequent basis. The Core Facilitator must check the active status of the RDs’ Signal accounts by sending test messages and confirming the RDs’ timely response; this must be done regularly, on a schedule known only to the Core Facilitator. If an RD fails to timely respond to the test messages, the Core Facilitator must remove them from RD status.

Emergency Response System - Emergency Response - Accountability Measures for Ecosystem Actor Individuals And Teams Core -

For Ecosystem Actors appointed to the Emergency Response Group, fulfilling the responsibilities of this role is as critical to their overall performance evaluation as their customary deliverables.

The Support Facilitators and Protocol Security Workstream Lead are required to document all instances of Emergency Response Group Members’ failure to meet emergency-preparedness requirements. Given their domain expertise and proximity to each emergency situation, the Support Facilitators and Protocol Security Workstream Lead are granted the discretion to evaluate emergency-preparedness deficiencies. Generally, they are required to take swift action to address non-negligible emergency-preparedness deficiencies in the following manner.

If the deficient Emergency Response Group Member is an Ecosystem Actor individual, the individual should be removed from the Group.

If the deficient Emergency Response Group Member is part of an Ecosystem Actor team, the specific member who has failed to meet requirements should be removed from the Group.

If different Emergency Response Group Members from the same Ecosystem Actor team consistently fail to meet requirements, the Ecosystem Actor team as a whole should be removed from the Group.

The removal of a Member from the Group is done at the discretion of the Support Facilitators and the Protocol Security Workstream Lead. However, the Support Facilitators and Protocol Security Workstream Lead may not proceed with removal unless it is supported with clear documentation. Such documentation must be made available to all Emergency Response Group Members for review.

When an Ecosystem Actor is removed from the Emergency Response Group for deficient performance, the Support Facilitators must transparently announce this action via a post to the Sky Forum. Further, the removal must be incorporated into the evaluation of the Ecosystem Actor’s overall performance.

The Support Facilitators has the discretion to decide if documentation supporting the removal should be retained internally or publicly shared on the Forum (with redactions, if needed).

Sky Core Governance Security - Emergency Spells - Standby Spells Definition Core -

Sky Protocol uses circuit-breakers to mitigate undesired scenarios, which circuit-breakers are called MOM contracts. MOM contracts must first be triggered through a spell, after which they bypass the GSM Pause Delay and can immediately act on the Protocol. See A.1.9 - Sky Core Governance Security - Governance Security Delay Requirements - Exceptions.

In emergency scenarios, time is a scarce resource. Therefore, Standby Spells are used in validated emergency scenarios to trigger a MOM contract. In an emergency situation, spell teams can then focus on crafting an ad hoc Emergency Spell to solve the root cause of an issue, if appropriate. Due to Standby Spells, it is no longer necessary in an emergency for spell teams to spend time crafting and reviewing a spell whose sole purpose is to trigger a mitigation of the issue, i.e., the MOM contract.

Standby Spells open new attack vectors that must be mitigated pursuant to A.1.9 - Sky Core Governance Security - Emergency Spells - ADs’ Role In Standby Spells.
