There really isn't such a singular thing.
The Perl Foundation is a non-profit that handles grants and conferences (and I'm sad to see their work on the latter has regressed since I helped get a code of conduct in place for american perl conferences close to a decade ago).
It has no authority over core development - that's the Perl Steering Council.
It has no authority over conduct in core development spaces - that's the perl5-porters code of conduct which has its own moderation team attached (of which I am not a member but respect the people who are as effective moderators and also nicer people than I am).
It has no authority over irc.perl.org in general or libera.chat #perl - those are handled by the irc.perl.org code of conduct with a moderation team that I helped recruit after taking the lead on the community consultation part of the code of conduct adoption process, but is far from only me and intentionally includes more than one person who will disagree with me quite vocally on the (sadly more common that I would like) occasions when I fuck up.
What we need to do going forwards is to get conduct enforcement at the TPF/CAT level up to the standard the rest of the community has been reaching for years.
