Daimond Daimond Guide

Getting started

Daimond is an AI agent workspace that runs entirely in your browser. There is no account on a server and nothing to download: your chats, keys and files live only on this device.

Nothing leaves your device unless you direct it to. Your messages go to the model provider you connected; credits pay for a model run, a page fetched or a mailbox synced; a device you link gets an encrypted parcel. Everything else stays in this browser. Accounts & privacy sets out what goes where, and how to check it yourself.

The Daimond workspace on first run: the Diamonds and Chats rail on the left, the chat panel in the centre, and the admin panel at the bottom-left.

The shortest path to a first answer

Three steps. Each one points at a control you can see on screen.

  1. Create an account

    On first run Daimond offers to protect this device with a passphrase. Type your name and a passphrase, then choose Create account. The passphrase encrypts your stored keys and mail credentials, and it is your on-device identity. It is never sent anywhere, so keep it somewhere safe: if you lose it, the encrypted data is gone.

    Skip for now lets you set one later, though a provider key is best added once a passphrase is there to protect it.

  2. Connect a model, or buy credits

    A daimon needs a model to think with. Two ways to give it one, both in the admin panel at the bottom-left:

    • Bring your own key. Open the Models row, choose + Add provider, pick a provider, paste its API key, and star a default model. Your messages then go straight to that provider on your own account.
    • Buy credits. Open the Credits row and buy a pack. Daimond runs the model for you: no provider key to manage, no subscription.

    Either one is enough. See Models & credits for the detail.

  3. Start a chat

    Choose New chat at the top of the rail (the ＋ beside Chats), type in the box at the bottom of the centre panel, and send with ➤. That centre panel is where you talk to the daimon, and Daimond is built around that conversation.

What you are looking at

The screen has three zones. The rail on the left lists what you are working on and, below a movable divider, the admin panel. The stage in the centre holds the conversation and anything you read beside it. The dock on the right holds the sources you pull from: Email, the Workspace, agent runs, your spending, what is waiting on you, and the Trash.

Across the top, every panel has a chip that opens or closes it, and buttons at the far right for the About dialog, this guide, and the theme, text size and dock tiling. None of it is needed on the way to a first answer; all of it is laid out on The interface.

The admin panel at the bottom-left: an identity row, a Models row, a Credits row, a Tools row, and workspace storage rows.
The admin panel. Each row answers a question about the machine, and the ones you can act on are buttons.

The admin panel is where Daimond is set up and where it tells you what it is costing. Each row is a button that opens the thing it names: your identity, Models, Credits, Tools, Version, and the storage your workspace is using. The next page walks through every part of the screen.

Keeping it to hand

Your browser's own Install, or Add to Home Screen on a phone, gives Daimond an icon and a window of its own. It is the same page and the same stored work: nothing is downloaded, nothing moves, and a build the server has moved past is still refused rather than served from a cache.
