Meraby Daemon
Your Tireless Background Guardian — An autonomous daemon that watches, plans, and executes—silently empowering your code.

👁️ What is a Daemon?
In computing (Unix/Linux), a daemon is a background process that runs autonomously, waiting to handle requests or tasks without direct user intervention. It literally means "Tireless Worker."
The mythological root: The Greek daimōn was a guiding spirit or lesser deity—a perfect metaphor for an AI agent that works invisibly to empower the user.
Meraby Daemon brings this concept to VS Code: a dark, powerful, native tool that becomes part of your system's DNA.
🔮 The Daemon Architecture (v1.0)
Meraby Daemon is built on a state-of-the-art Semantic Agentic Runtime that rivals top autonomous coding assistants:

⚔️ Daemon Capabilities
👁️ Summon Daemon
The primary interface for commanding your daemon:
- Autonomous Execution — Describe intent, watch manifestation
- Strategic Planning — Complex multi-step task orchestration
- Self-Correction — Iterative reasoning with error recovery
🔮 Active Spirits
Monitor spawned sub-daemons working in parallel:
- Parallel Processing — Multiple spirits handle concurrent tasks
- Status Tracking — Real-time visibility into daemon activity
- Resource Management — Efficient spirit lifecycle management
The daemon's toolkit for interacting with your realm:
- Filesystem Operations — Read, write, navigate
- Shell Commands — Execute terminal operations
- Code Analysis — AST-based understanding
- Semantic Search — Vector-based code discovery
🔗 Bindings
Pin critical context for persistent daemon awareness:
- File Binding — Keep important files in daemon's perception
- Context Persistence — Maintain awareness across sessions
📜 Rituals
Automated scripts and commands:
- Workspace Scripts — Detect and execute project commands
- Custom Rituals — Define your own automation
🗝️ Secrets
Environment variable management:
- Secure Display — Hidden values with reveal option
- Quick Access — Copy secrets to clipboard
📖 Grimoire
Project notes and knowledge:
- Quick Notes — Capture thoughts and TODOs
- Persistent Storage — Notes survive sessions

🔒 Privacy & The Daemon's Code

- 🚫 No commands stored — Processed and immediately forgotten
- 🚫 No surveillance — We don't track your rituals
📜 The Daemon in Action
Example: "Create a verified email component"
1. Perception
The daemon uses AST analysis to scan your realm, identifying existing patterns and dependencies.
2. Strategy
It formulates a plan:
- Conjure
EmailInput.tsx
- Implement RFC 5322 validation
- Add error state handling
3. Manifestation
The daemon writes the code, verifies it against your project's conventions, and presents the solution for approval.
🌙 The Philosophy
"A daemon is not summoned to be commanded—it is awakened to serve. It watches when you cannot, works when you rest, and guards what you value."
Meraby Daemon embodies this philosophy. It's not just another AI assistant—it's a tireless guardian integrated into your development environment, working silently in the background to empower your code.
