# Daemon
The daemon runs outside Vesktop. It holds all logic. It talks to the core bridge and exposes MCP.
## Files

## Transport
The primary transport is the validated core bridge. The daemon connects to
`vesktop-puppet.sock`. All actions go through the validated capability layer. See
[core-bridge.md](core-bridge.md).
The CDP transport is a development fallback. It needs no Vesktop patch. It evaluates raw code in
the page, so it has no core-side guardrails. Use it for debugging only.
## Pacing
The daemon paces all commands. The policy is a random delay of 500 to 2800 ms. The queue
serializes the commands. The queue coalesces identical concurrent reads. The daemon also prefers
cached state over queries.
The core adds a second, hard rate limit. See [core-bridge.md](core-bridge.md).
## MCP tools
The daemon exposes MCP over Streamable HTTP. The default address is `http://127.0.0.1:8788/mcp`.
| Tool | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `get_state` | List the user, the guilds, and the channels. |
| `send_message` | Send a message to a channel. |
| `read_messages` | Read cached messages from a channel. |
| `send_dm` | Send a DM to a user. |
| `get_message_log` | Read the trigger log. |
| `whitelist_list` | List the owner and the trusted users. |
| `whitelist_add` | Add users to the trust list. |
| `whitelist_remove` | Remove users from the trust list. |
## Run commands
```sh
# Start the daemon. It connects to the core bridge.
pnpm control:bridge
# Start a mock core for tests without Electron.
VESKSLOP_SOCKET=/tmp/vesktop-puppet-mock.sock pnpm control:mock
# Inject a trigger event into the mock core.
VESKSLOP_SOCKET=/tmp/vesktop-puppet-mock.sock pnpm test:trigger
# Send one test DM. The only permitted live target is zzib.
pnpm poc:dm
# Run the pure-logic unit tests.
pnpm test:comm
# Development tools for the CDP fallback.
pnpm cdp:probe
CDP_EXPRESSION='...' pnpm cdp:dispatch
```
## Health endpoint
`GET /health` returns the CDP state, the owner ID, and the query count.
```json
{ "ok": true, "cdpConnected": true, "ownerId": "177117296140091393", "queries": 4 }
```
## How to add an MCP tool
1. Add the action to the core bridge. See [core-bridge.md](core-bridge.md).
2. Add a `server.registerTool` call in `poc/src/control-bridge.ts`.
3. Wrap outbound calls in `paced`.
4. Add a unit test if the tool has local logic.
5. Run `pnpm check` in `poc/`.
## Security notes
- The MCP server binds to localhost by default.
- Remote access must go over LAN or Tailscale. Do not expose the daemon to the public internet.
- The daemon holds no Discord credentials. The client holds the session.
- The daemon token file is separate from the client session. See [auth.md](auth.md).
