Hello. Can stig automatically open and close transmission-daemon by itself?

No.

I think the API provides a command to shutdown the daemon, but I don't think starting it is doable. stig doesn't know how it was started. Was it started by PID 1? Is your PID 1 systemd? Or maybe you started it manually in a terminal in the foreground for testing purposes? Is the daemon running on remote computer? If that computer allows you to execute commands, by what means? SSH? Some proprietary web interface?
