Star Comms Premium
Premium unlocks through the Command Net Supporter Patreon tier. You get a private routing shard for your Discord org — up to 50 channels, Global PTT, Public Net, Org Link, and ACARS. Choose Centrally Hosted when you want Star Comms to run the box, or Self Hosted when you want full control.
Hosting paths
Both paths start with Command Net Supporter on Patreon, then a dedicated Star Comms routing node with 50 channels. The difference is who runs the host — and how much control you keep over uptime and hardware.
Managed capacity without installing a host. Your admins still run the net.
Non-technical orgs running 10–20 person operations that just need more capacity.
Full integrations on your Windows or Linux box. You own uptime and routing.
Large orgs running consistent large combined-arms operations that want full control of their services.
Self Hosted — Owner API
Both Self Hosted and Centrally Hosted shards expose the full Owner API: scoped scok_ bearer keys, URI launch links, service listeners, webhooks, and metrics. Self Hosted adds full control over uptime and routing on your own hardware.
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer scok_••••••••" https://shard.yourorg.net/api/v1/status
{ "operation": "open", "nets": 14, "connected": 87, "transmitting": ["Command Net"] }
$ curl -X POST .../api/v1/assignments/bulk -d '{"action":"assign","assignments":[...]}'
{ "applied": 42, "skipped": 0 }
$ curl -X POST .../api/v1/acars -d '{"text":"Rally at OM-1 in 5 minutes.","senderName":"Ops Bot"}'
{ "delivered": true, "clients": 87 }Each integration gets its own key with only the scopes it needs. Keys are hashed at central, shown once, bound to one guild, and revocable at any time — from the shard control panel or the desktop client's Advanced API Integration tab.
