Venue Kit

Note

Coming soon. The Venue Kit isn't built yet. This page describes what's planned. The Somnia CLI and MCP server it builds on are live, and somnia venues already lists operators, venues and their builder fees. To build a venue now, use the Markets SDK and test on the Global testnet first.

Everything you need to ship a venue, as a thin layer over the Somnia CLI and MCP server: a front-end template, the venue commands and an agent skill that lets a coding agent do it with you.

Today: the Markets SDK

What a venue needs already exists onchain, behind the Markets SDK:

• Register as an operator. OperatorAdmin.registerOperator makes your address an operator in MarketsCore, with a default fee recipient.
• Create a venue. OperatorAdmin.createVenue registers a venue under your operator, with one market type fixed at creation and its first fee and policy.
• Set its fee. On event (binary) markets, each venue has its own fee parameters and fee recipient; a market keeps the fee it was created with. On spot markets, a venue can earn a builder fee on the orders it routes, when they carry its builder attribution, the trader has approved it as a builder, and the pool's fee cap allows it.
• Choose who creates markets. A venue's policy, set when it's created, opens market creation to everyone or gates it.
• Watch it. Every venue and operator, and what they've traded, is on the Venues page in Somnia Explorer.

What's in the kit

Venue template

An open-source trading front end with order books, charts, positions and wallet connection, ready for your brand.

Venue commands

Somnia CLI commands that will create the venue, list markets, set fees and attach liquidity, from testnet to mainnet.

Agent skill

The same steps exposed as MCP tools, so Claude Code, Cursor or any agent can scaffold and configure a venue with you.

How it will work

1. Install the Somnia CLI and sign in.
2. Scaffold a venue from the Venue Kit template.
3. Register it on testnet, choose its markets and set your fee.
4. Attach shared liquidity and launch on mainnet.

A coding agent will be able to do the same steps through the Somnia MCP server.
