Celo’s Improvement Proposals (CIPs) describe standards for the Celo platform, including the core protocol specifications, SDK, and contract standards. A CIP is a design document that should provide background information, a rationale for the proposal, detailed solution including technical specifications, and, if any, a list of potential risks. The proposer is responsible for soliciting community feedback and for driving consensus.
For the new CGP (Celo Governance Proposal) repository, please go to the Governance Repo
There may be instances that require both CIP and CGP, such as a change to a smart contract that requires a governance proposal to point the proxy to the new instance.
Participation in the Celo project is subject to the Code of Conduct.
Draft all proposals following the template below and submit to the CIPs repository via a PR (pull request).
Please see CIPS/template.md for a template.
For code-related questions, comments, and discussions please use the Celo Forum
