## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Web3 DAO Governance Tracker

Monitor the heartbeat of decentralized organizations with this dedicated Web3 DAO Governance Tracker. Built to scrape and extract live voting data from the industry-standard Snapshot.org GraphQL API, this tool gives you instant visibility into off-chain governance signals across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, and other EVM-compatible networks. Whether you are an active delegate, a treasury analyst, or an institutional investor, staying ahead of governance changes is critical. This scraper allows you to track active, pending, or closed proposals without needing a connected wallet, API key, or paid tier.

Users rely on this extraction tool to schedule weekly monitors of their favorite DAO spaces, ensuring they never miss a crucial protocol upgrade or treasury vote. By querying Snapshot's public infrastructure directly, you can reliably capture a wealth of structured data for quantitative analysis, financial modeling, or compliance reporting.

Every run seamlessly delivers concrete outputs including the unique proposal ID, space details, full proposal body, author addresses, voting choices, and real-time scores per choice. It also extracts the current state (active vs closed), precise start and end timestamps, quorum thresholds, and total vote counts. Use this data to power your own dashboards, track delegate participation, or build internal alerts when controversial proposals are nearing their deadlines.

### Status

Scaffolded as part of **Wave 17 Batch S — Tier 3 (strategic / emerging platforms + governance)**. Domain logic lives in `src/workflow.js`.

### Feasibility

**Very high — Snapshot.org's public GraphQL API (hub.snapshot.org/graphql) is the industry-standard index for EVM DAO off-chain voting. Fully public, no API key required, stable schema in use by Tally / DeepDAO / Etherscan.**

### V1 scope

Snapshot.org public GraphQL only. Per proposal: ID, space, title, body, author, choices, scores per choice, state (active/closed/pending), start/end, quorum, votes count, strategies, link. OUT OF SCOPE: on-chain executor (Gnosis Safe, Compound Governor) transaction history, Tally / Boardroom aggregation, cross-chain reorg handling, wallet-sign voting.

### Extraction surfaces

- Snapshot GraphQL: https://hub.snapshot.org/graphql — proposals / spaces / votes queries
- Snapshot space JSON: https://hub.snapshot.org/api/spaces/{spaceId}

### Known limitations and explicit warnings

- Snapshot is an OFF-chain gasless voting platform — vote counts reflect signed messages, not on-chain transactions.
- Some DAOs have migrated from Snapshot to Tally (on-chain Governor) — Snapshot coverage for those is historical-only.
- Strategy configuration (how voting power is calculated) is DAO-defined; the actor surfaces the strategy spec but does not re-compute balances.
- GraphQL endpoint rate-limits at ~60 req/min for anonymous clients; batched queries are preferred.
- Proposal bodies are user-authored Markdown — no sanitization is performed; consumers should treat as untrusted.
- Quorum calculation depends on the strategy and may require fetching the space config separately.
- 'Scores' fields are computed by Snapshot using the space's strategies; they may lag during active voting windows.
- Space IDs are case-sensitive and often use .eth suffix; the actor passes them through verbatim.
- On-chain execution status (whether a passing proposal was actually queued / executed) is NOT tracked by Snapshot and is out of V1 scope.
- DAO metadata returns the CURRENT space config, not historical snapshots at proposal-creation time.

### Input

- DAO space IDs / governance proposals
- Delivery mode (dataset or webhook)
- Dry-run support for local validation

### Output

- Normalized `proposals` array
- `meta` section with implementation status, feasibility note, V1 scope, warnings, and notes

### Local run

```bash
npm test
npm start
````
