Daemon Pro & Arena

DAEMON Pro is the paid layer on top of DAEMON. It unlocks Arena submissions, the Pro skill pack, hosted MCP sync, priority API quota, and holder-gated access for qualified DAEMON wallets.

The public Arena board at /arena reads from the same live backend as the desktop app, so the website and the app stay in sync.

What Pro unlocks#

Arena

Submit your project in-app, vote on the live board, and compete for distribution, prizes, and lifetime Pro access.

Pro Skill Pack

Curated workflows, templates, and operator-grade skills designed to improve default output.

Hosted MCP Sync

Push MCP configuration from one DAEMON install and pull it onto the next machine.

Priority API

Higher-value paid endpoints without the usual pay-per-call friction for power users.

Holder access#

Qualified DAEMON holders can claim Pro directly in the app without going through the USDC payment flow. The current holder gate is 1,000,000 DAEMON.

  • Open Tools > Daemon Pro inside the app.
  • Select the wallet that holds the required amount of DAEMON.
  • Claim holder access and refresh the Pro panel.

Staking access#

DAEMON staking is designed as an optional supporter path, not a requirement to use the IDE. The branded access page at /access verifies wallet state against the configured Streamflow pool and shows what the wallet unlocks across Signal, Vector, and Apex staking tiers.

  • Use the desktop IDE for free whether you hold DAEMON or not.
  • Use holder access if you already qualify by balance.
  • Use Streamflow staking if you want earlier access, stronger priority, and visible supporter status around the project.

Arena flow#

Arena is split into two surfaces. The website is the public showcase and contest wrapper. The app is where real users submit and manage entries.

  • Website: contest framing, rules, prizes, winners, live public board.
  • Desktop app: submissions, voting, holder claim, and Pro activation.
  • Backend: shared Arena state served from the hosted Pro API.

How to submit#

In the desktop app, go to Tools > Daemon Pro > Arena. Submit your title, one-line pitch, GitHub link, optional demo, and social handles.

Downloads#

The landing site download buttons always point to the latest GitHub release. The current public release shown on this site is v4.0.0.

Website updates can ship immediately on Vercel. Desktop feature changes only reach users after a new DAEMON release is built and published to GitHub.
