The Render Network Foundation strives to include all participants of the Render Network. It is paramount that active and engaged network participants are rewarded with ownership of the network in order to ensure that the network continues to evolve in the direction that serves its users most effectively. More detailed information about the Render Network Foundation can be found at the [Foundation website](https://renderfoundation.com/). ## Render Network Foundation Community As part of taking over the governance of the Render Network, the Render Network Foundation is now the body behind maintaining the Render Network Community forums. The two most active community forums for discussing all things Render Network Foundation, participating in the RNP process and keeping up to date with the Render Network are: [**Render Network Community Discord**](https://discord.gg/rendernetwork) [**Render Network Community Telegram Channel**](https://t.me/s/rendertoken) {% hint style="warning" %} **Please only follow links to Render Network Community forums which are provided by the Render Network Team or Foundation** {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://know.rendernetwork.com/about-render-network-governance/the-render-network-foundation.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
