+## Daemon Mode (Recommended for Long-Running)
+
+For persistent displays (e.g., always-on terminal), use daemon mode with command-and-control over ntfy:
+
+```bash
+# Start the daemon (runs in background, auto-warms ntfy topics)
+mise run daemon
+
+# Send commands via cmdline
+mise run cmd "/effects list"
+mise run cmd "/effects noise off"
+mise run cmd "/effects noise intensity 0.5"
+
+# Watch performance stats continuously
+mise run cmd-stats
+
+# Stop the daemon
+mise run daemon-stop
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+- **Topics**: Uses separate ntfy topics for serial-like communication:
+  - `klubhaus_terminal_mainline_cc_cmd` - commands TO mainline
+  - `klubhaus_terminal_mainline_cc_resp` - responses FROM mainline
+- Topics are automatically created on first daemon start
+
+### Available Commands
+
+```
+/effects list                    - List all effects and status
+/effects <name> on             - Enable an effect
+/effects <name> off            - Disable an effect
+/effects <name> intensity 0.5  - Set effect intensity (0.0-1.0)
+/effects reorder noise,fade,glitch,firehose - Reorder pipeline
+/effects stats                  - Show performance statistics
+```
