DAO Legal Entity Signatory Rotation Tool

WHAT IT DOES

DAO Legal Entity Signatory Rotation Tool is a DAO governance tool that enables the rotation of legal entity signatories through on-chain governance. It reads the DAO contract address, legal entity signatory list (current signatories), signatory rotation proposal status, governance module parameters, voting power requirements, current voter state, account nonce, gas estimates for rotation, previous rotation records, and legal entity registration details (name, jurisdiction, registration number). The tool then guides you through submitting a signatory rotation proposal to governance, executing the rotation after governance approval, updating the signatory list, revoking old signatory permissions, granting new signatory permissions, and syncing signatory status across chains.

HOW TO USE

Connect your wallet via the built-in connector. Select the network where the DAO contract is deployed. Enter the DAO contract address, governance module address, the list of new signatory addresses (one per line), and the legal entity details (name, jurisdiction, registration number). The tool will read on-chain data and display a preview including: DAO contract, governance module, current signatories, new signatories, entity details, proposal status, voting power required, your voter state, and estimated gas. Review all details carefully. Click "submit rotation proposal" to submit the signatory rotation proposal to governance. Once the governance vote passes, the tool will execute the rotation and update the signatory list.

TECHNICAL MECHANISM

The tool uses ethers.js v5.7.2 to interact with the DAO contract and governance module. It reads the current signatory list using `getSignatories()` which returns an array of addresses. Governance module parameters are read via `votingPeriod()`, `quorum()`, and `proposalThreshold()`. Voting power requirements are read using `getVotingPowerRequired()` and the user's voter state is checked using `hasVoted()` and `getVoterPower()`. Signatory rotation proposal status is checked using `getProposalStatus(proposalId)` which returns pending/approved/executed. Rotation history is scanned using `eth_getLogs` for `SignatoryRotated` events, with adaptive chunking (halving chunk size on failure) to handle different RPC limits—the tool walks backward from the current block and continues even if some ranges are rejected. The proposal submission calls `submitSignatoryRotation(newSignatories, entityDetails)` on the governance module. After the proposal is approved, the tool calls `executeSignatoryRotation(proposalId)` which updates the signatory list, revokes old permissions, grants new permissions, and emits a `SignatoryRotated` event. Gas estimates are calculated using `estimateGas` on the submission and execution methods with EIP-1559 fee data from `feeData`. All transactions are built with EIP-1559 fee data, and the tool uses `effectiveGasPrice` from receipts for accurate cost accounting.

WHAT IT CANNOT SEE

This tool cannot verify that new signatories are legally authorized off-chain to act on behalf of the legal entity. It cannot detect if signatories are misrepresenting their authority. It cannot guarantee that the legal entity registration details are accurate—they are stored as metadata. It cannot ensure that the governance vote is not manipulated. It cannot prevent front-running of rotation proposals. It cannot validate that the new signatory list complies with legal entity requirements (e.g., minimum number of signatories). It cannot detect if the DAO contract has been modified. It cannot verify that signatory permissions are correctly implemented off-chain in external systems.

PLEASE NOTE

This tool is EVM-only and supports Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Avalanche. The rotation proposal is submitted by the connected wallet—ensure you have sufficient voting power or are authorized to propose. The tool does not store or transmit any signatory or entity data. Signatory rotations are governance-controlled; the proposal must pass the DAO's voting requirements. Always verify new signatory identities off-chain before submitting a rotation proposal. Test on testnet before using on mainnet.
