A type of Alignment Conserver, Aligned Delegates (ADs) possess considerable influence over the Sky Protocol through their control of delegated voting power. Their primary focus is to prevent the abuse of this power, whether by themselves or others, and to safeguard the ecosystem against misaligned actions from other actors or parts of the governance process. This Article defines key infrastructure and requirements concerning Aligned Delegates.
The budget stream allocated to a Prime Delegate (PD) is modified based on their correct usage of required tools for emergency communications.Should a PD fail to correctly use the required communications tools, they become completely ineligible to receive PD income. Their PD 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 Seasonally Active Delegate Contract.
PDs are required to maintain an active Signal account to facilitate communications related to emergency / urgent situations. This requirement applies regardless of whether a PD has been appointed to the Emergency Response Group. See A.1.8 - Emergency Response System - Emergency Response - Emergency Response Signal Group. PDs must provide their Signal username to the Governance Facilitators.The Governance Facilitators are responsible for maintaining an internal registry of PDs’ Signal accounts. Because the ranked PDs are continually changing, the Governance Facilitators must ensure that the internal registry is maintained on a frequent basis. The Governance Facilitators must check the active status of the PDs’ Signal accounts by sending test messages and confirming the PDs’ timely response; this must be done regularly, on a schedule known only to the Governance Facilitators. If a PD fails to timely respond to the test messages, the Governance Facilitators must remove them from PD status.
