So bitcoin's API, commands, daemon feature is same at all other alt-coins?

Generally, no.
Some forked coins may have the same API, but doesn't have to.
Just google "your_coins_name developer api" to find the correct API for your coin.



And eth ERC20 token does not have any source github, API, commands, daemon, right?

ERC20 tokens are just coded contracts. You may found them on github. This depends on the developer.
Regarding commands and deamon, look here.

You don't need to run a daemon for an ERC20 token. They run ontop of the ethereum network.
You might run an ethereum daemon if necessary.



ERC20 is a protocol running on top of Ethereum network..

ERC20 describes rather a standard for tokens, than a protocol.

Some altcoins are made from bitcoin's code and will have a very familiar daemon, but this is not true for every altcoin; some of them were made from scratch, as a completely new system, and are quite different.

Also, altcoins that branch off from bitcoin's code aren't guaranteed to have all the same functions and commands. As both bitcoin and the altcoin changes over time, they will become more and more distinct, so be sure to test code designed for bitcoin thoroughly on an altcoin before using it there as there may be some "gotchas" involved.

No, each coins have their own features and APIs, you have to refer to that specific coin's documentation to find out.

ERC20 is a protocol running on top of Ethereum network, you can find links to github and docs here https://ethereum.org/.
