# Access Control & Multisigs

All authorities are Gnosis Safe multisigs. Every safe is staffed by team members or external signers, all signing with hardware wallets and operating under strict signer discipline — every transaction is checked through a thorough internal verification process and simulated (e.g. via Tenderly) before it is signed.

Ethereum Mainnet:

 L2s: Each with 2 multisigs —  an Admin multisig (3-of-6) and the Pauser multisig (1-of-5):

| Network  | Admin multisig (3-of-6)                    | Pauser multisig (1-of-5)                   |

Note: The ProxyAdmins on Ethereum mainnet and L2s are owned by their timelocks, whose proposers are the respective admin multisigs.

# 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. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://kerneldao.gitbook.io/kernel/getting-started/kelp/smart-contracts/access-control-and-multisigs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

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.
