# Issuer Anybody can make an issuer, as this protocol is decentralized at the base layer. Of course, issuers of credentials should be trusted, despite the fact that anybody can create an issuer. Furthermore, Holonym Foundation operates the frontend and can integrate the issuer into the frontend, so we recommend reaching out in the discord to talk to us and the community before making a custom issuer. --- # Agent Instructions: 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: ``` GET https://zeronym-docs.holonym.id/how-it-works/issuer.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. 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.
