# Guider Role: Responsibilities and Getting Started

> Guiders are experienced participants who support newcomers, approve Intents and Help Requests, and oversee Order execution within their group.

As a Guider (also called a Consultant), you are an experienced participant who has earned the trust of the community and taken on responsibility for a group of other participants — your Structure. You are not an employee or a company representative. You are a fellow participant who knows the system well and uses that knowledge to help others navigate it. Every Intent and Help Request submitted by someone in your group passes through your review before the system acts on it.

<Note>
  The term "Guider" (Десятник / Consultant) applies to all participants with status 1 and above — including Centurions, Thousanders, and Temniks. Your responsibilities are the same regardless of your level; only the scale of your group changes.
</Note>

## Guider hierarchy

Each level reflects a larger Structure and greater experience. Administrators assign Guider status based on your activity and demonstrated trustworthiness in the system.

| Status | English name | Russian name |
| ------ | ------------ | ------------ |
| 1      | Guider       | Десятник     |
| 2      | Guider+      | Десятник+    |
| 3      | Centurion    | Сотник       |
| 4      | Centurion+   | Сотник+      |
| 5      | Thousander   | Тысячник     |
| 6      | Thousander+  | Тысячник+    |
| 7      | Temnik       | Темник       |

## How you get Guider status

Guider status is granted by administrators. There is no self-nomination or automatic promotion. It is based on your activity as a participant, your reliability in completing Orders, and the trust you have built within the community. If you are interested in becoming a Guider, speak with your current Guider or use `/admin` to reach an administrator.

## Your core responsibilities

As a Guider, you are the last mile of support for the participants in your group. Developers support Guiders; Guiders support participants.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Review and decide on Intents">
    When a participant in your group creates an Intent (a declaration to give help), you receive a notification. You review the amount, the participant's standing, and approve or reject it. Only approved Intents enter the matching pool.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review and decide on Help Requests">
    When a participant submits a Help Request (a request to receive help), it comes to you first. You check that their limits are correct and approve or reject the request before the system processes it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Oversee Order execution">
    Once the system creates an Order connecting an Intent with a Help Request, you monitor it through its lifecycle — sending it to the participant, following up if it stalls, and resolving any issues that arise.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Support newcomers">
    New participants who join through your invite link or get assigned to your group look to you for guidance. You set their welcome message with `/intro`, answer their questions, and help them take their first steps.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Maintain trust and accountability">
    You are responsible for the quality of your group. If a participant becomes unresponsive, causes problems, or needs to be moved to another structure, you handle it.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Key principle: you gate every action

Before the system can act on any Intent or Help Request from your group members, it waits for your approval. This is intentional — it ensures that someone who knows the participant personally, not just algorithmically, is involved in every decision.

<Warning>
  Delaying reviews holds up your participants' Orders. Aim to review Intents and Help Requests promptly. Your participants are waiting on you before they can give or receive help.
</Warning>

## Quick orientation commands

Use these commands to get an immediate overview of your group's activity:

| Command              | What it shows                                              |
| -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/info`              | Your profile, status level, and structure summary          |
| `/asks`              | Pending Help Requests from your first line awaiting review |
| `/intents @username` | All Intents for a specific participant                     |
| `/orders @username`  | All Orders for a specific participant                      |
| `/users`             | Active participants in your structure                      |

## What Guiders are not

<Tip>
  Guiders are peers, not managers. You do not set rules for the platform, you do not control participants' funds, and you are not personally responsible for transfers that go wrong. Your role is to review, guide, and escalate — not to guarantee outcomes.
