Add a transfer instruction to the Anchor program that sends SOL from the vault PDA to the recipient

assistant

I'll add a `transfer` instruction that uses a PDA-signed CPI to the System Program. The vault PDA will be derived from the program ID and a seed, and the instruction will verify the signer is the vault authority.

Editing programs/lib.rs...

user

Now write the test for it

assistant

I'll create a test that:
1. Initializes the vault with 5 SOL
2. Calls transfer for 2 SOL
3. Asserts the vault balance decreased and recipient increased

Writing tests/transfer.test.ts...

Built for Solana

Everything you need
in one app

The first IDE where Solana tooling, AI agents, and deployment are native, not plugins bolted on after the fact.

Solana Native

Built-in wallet with live portfolio via Helius, SPL token tracking, PumpFun token launches, and Jupiter swaps. No browser extensions, no context switching.

Grind Mode

Multi-panel agent grid for parallel coding. Spin up Claude agents working different parts of your project at the same time. The closest thing to cloning yourself.

Agent System

Spawn Claude Code agents with custom system prompts, model selection, and per-project MCP configs. Every agent runs as a real CLI process with full tool access.

Monaco + Terminal

Full offline Monaco editor with multi-tab, breadcrumbs, and syntax highlighting. Real PTY terminals via node-pty with splits and tab completion.

One-Click Deploy

Ship to Vercel or Railway straight from the editor. Connect your accounts once and deploy without touching a browser.

Git Built In

Branch, stage, commit, push, stash, and tag, all visual. Full git workflow without opening a separate terminal.

Architecture

Not a wrapper.
Not a fork.

A standalone Electron app built from scratch for Solana development. A standalone Electron app built from scratch for Solana development. Process isolation, typed IPC, and native modules, with every layer built intentionally.

Process Isolation

All database and filesystem access runs in the main process. The renderer never touches SQLite directly. Everything flows through typed IPC handlers.

Typed IPC Contract

Every handler returns { ok, data } or { ok, error }. No raw throws across the bridge. 20 IPC modules covering agents, wallet, git, terminals, and more.

Offline First

Monaco editor runs through a custom protocol handler. Zero network requests for core editing. Your code stays on your machine.

Native Modules

better-sqlite3 and node-pty unpacked from ASAR for production builds. Real PTY sessions, real database. Not browser polyfills pretending to be native.

Layer	Technology	Note
Shell	Electron 33	Chromium + Node in one process
Build	Vite	Sub-second HMR
UI	React 18 + TypeScript	Strict types, zero any
Editor	Monaco Editor	Custom protocol, fully offline
Terminal	node-pty + xterm.js	Real PTY, not emulated
State	Zustand	One store per domain
Database	better-sqlite3	WAL mode, main process only
Git	simple-git	Branch, stash, tag, push
Package	electron-builder	.exe + .dmg, auto-update
