Getting Started with DOER DAPP
How to use DOER DAPP safely, even if you are new to Web3.
This guide explains the basics of using DOER DAPP without needing technical knowledge. You do not need to understand smart contracts, automation systems, or blockchain architecture to use DOER DAPP safely.
You only need to understand what you are allowing and why.
What DOER DAPP Helps You Do
DOER DAPP helps reduce repetitive on-chain actions while keeping you in control.
It is useful when:
You perform similar actions often
You want to avoid approving the same type of transaction repeatedly
You want permissions that automatically expire
You want clear limits on what can happen on your behalf
You want to automate actions without giving unlimited access
DOER DAPP does not take control away from you. It allows you to define rules once and enforce them automatically through policy-driven automation.
What DOER DAPP Does Before Anything Happens
Before DOER DAPP can do anything, two things must exist: 1. An intent describing what should happen 2. A policy defining the limits Nothing executes until both are clearly defined. Automation only happens inside the boundaries you set.
Connect Your Wallet
To begin, connect your wallet to DOER DAPP. This does not give DOER DAPP access to your funds. It only allows DOER DAPP to read your public account and register your instructions. At this stage: • No permissions are granted • No actions can occur • Nothing is automated Your wallet remains the sole owner of your assets.
Describe What You Want to Do
Next, you describe an intent. An intent is a clear description of the outcome you want. Examples include: • Claim staking rewards automatically • Swap tokens if conditions are met • Consolidate small balances (Dust Sweep) • Complete on-chain tasks to earn rewards Think of an intent as saying: "I am comfortable with this type of action happening, as long as it follows my rules." At this stage, you are not approving a transaction yet. You are defining expectations.
Set Your Limits
This is the most important step. You define boundaries that automation cannot exceed. These limits may include: • Which apps or contracts are allowed • Maximum amounts that can be used • How often actions can happen • Gas limits for transactions • How long permission should last These limits are enforced automatically through the DoerPolicy system. If a limit is reached, execution stops immediately. You are always in control of these boundaries.
Allow Limited Execution
Once intent and limits are defined, you can allow execution through a mandate. A mandate is permission with rules and an expiration. It answers questions like: Who can act on this intent? How often can it run? When does permission end? Mandates never transfer ownership of your assets. They only allow specific actions to occur within the rules you created.
Let DOER DAPP Enforce Your Rules
Once a mandate becomes active: • Actions occur only if they match your intent • Policies are verified before every execution • Expired permissions cannot be used • Revoked permissions stop immediately Automation is executed by the DOER DAPP executor network, but every action must pass policy validation first. Nothing runs outside the rules you defined. You do not need to watch every transaction, but you can review or stop execution anytime.
Understanding Transaction Safety
Before you approve a transaction, DOER DAPP provides a risk preview. This helps you understand what the transaction is doing.
Transaction Approval
Asset: USDC
Spending Limit: Unlimited
Contract Risk Level: Medium
This allows you to see important information such as: • spending permissions • contract verification status • potential risks You always decide whether to approve or reject.
Earning Through On-Chain Tasks
DOER DAPP also allows users to participate in on-chain work. Projects, developers, and communities can post tasks directly on the platform. Examples include: • testing applications • participating in governance • community contributions • development work When a task is completed and verified, rewards are paid directly to your wallet. Each completed task contributes to your on-chain reputation, creating a verifiable record of your work. Your wallet becomes more than a storage tool. It becomes a Web3 activity profile.
How to Stay Safe When Using DOER DAPP
DOER DAPP is designed to protect users, but safe use still requires attention. Keep these principles in mind:
Only allow applications you recognize
Set limits you are comfortable with
Use expiration times whenever possible
Revoke mandates you no longer need
DOER DAPP enforces your rules. It cannot correct unclear or risky choices.
When You Should Use DOER DAPP
• You want fewer approvals without open-ended permissions • You interact with crypto frequently • You want automation with strict limits • You want to earn through on-chain tasks • You want more transparency when signing transactions
When You Should NOT Use DOER DAPP
• You do not understand what you are allowing • You want unlimited “set and forget” automation • You prefer manually approving every action yourself DOER prioritizes control over convenience.
You Can Always Stop
At any time, you can: View your active permissions Adjust your limits Pause automation Revoke execution rights instantly Nothing is permanent unless you choose it to be.
Where to Go Next
If you want to explore further:
Learn how Intents work
Understand Mandates and permissions
Review the Security model
Explore on-chain tasks and earning
Or simply begin by creating a small intent with strict limits and a short duration.
Final Reminder
"DOER DAPP is not about doing more automatically. It is about doing the right things, within boundaries you understand. When your rules are clear, automation stays safe."
