Product architecture, service providers, supported networks, contract addresses, fees and legal terms are subject to finalization. Where a parameter is not final, this documentation marks it as **TBD** rather than presenting an assumption as fact. ## Start here * [What is goldUSD?](/goldusd-docs/introduction/introduction/what-is-goldusd.md) * [How it works](/goldusd-docs/how-it-works/how-it-works.md) * [Yield generation](/goldusd-docs/yield/yield.md) * [Risk management](/goldusd-docs/risk/risk.md) * [Transparency](/goldusd-docs/transparency/transparency.md) * [Developer documentation](/goldusd-docs/developers/developers.md) ## Documentation principles This documentation is intended to explain the product in a transparent and technically useful way. It separates the economic design of goldUSD from implementation details that may evolve before launch. Nothing in these materials constitutes investment, legal, tax or financial advice. Final product terms and legal documentation will prevail where they differ from this documentation. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://goldusd.gitbook.io/goldusd-docs/readme.md?ask=&goal= ``` `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.
