Yarus, Roar of the Old Gods
Legendary Creature — Centaur Druid
Other creatures you control have haste.
Whenever one or more face-down creatures you control deal combat damage to a player, draw a card.
Whenever a face-down creature you control dies, return it to the battlefield face down under its owner's control if it's a permanent card, then turn it face up. (Dying is being put into the graveyard from the battlefield. Tokens cannot be returned as they cease to exist when they enter the graveyard.)

If I may add a few other notes to your thought process.
- You said that you want to go infinite, and Ghired and Sunstrike Legionnaire or Midnight Guard would be you main line.
- You also mentioned other combolines such as Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Zealous Conscripts.
At this point, you are already on the track of using known combos and putting them into a Naya shell. There are many other combos that can go with this, you just need to tutor for them.
Note that haste is an important aspect to this. Zealous Conscripts is much better than Hyrax Tower Scout or Sparring Mummy for this reason, even though both have cheaper mana value. Without haste, your million tokens will just be board-wiped. You could argue for redundancy, but the truth is that tutors and recursion such as Eternal Witness and Skullwinder are much better, because they add to your strategy with more flexibility.
Most creature tutors are green non-creature spells that search for green creatures. However, you want to keep the amount of non-creature spells low, because Ghired's ability doesn't apply to them. But there are some great tutors that can help you find your pieces:
- Defense of the Heart is great to outright win the game with Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Zealous Conscripts. If you can produce a lot of treasure (which shouldn't be a problem with Ghired), Tooth and Nail does the same for 9 mana. Shared Summons tutors them to your hand.
- If you are considering Molten Duplication, there is redundancy with Twinflame and Heat Shimmer. All of them will be helpful for Ghired, but most importantly, all of them go infinite with Dualcaster Mage.
- Sunstrike Legionnaire can be found by both Imperial Recruiter and Recruiter of the Guard
- Midnight Guard can be found by Imperial Recruiter
- Both Imperial Recruiter and Recruiter of the Guard can also find Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker
Most of these cards use ETBs. If you can give them haste - ideally with creatures - you can cast them, make use of their ETB, and directly tap them with Ghired for value. Anger comes to mind, Hellraiser Goblin is great (you won't be attacking, because you are going to tap your creatures with Ghired), Yarus, Roar of the Old Gods can be okay. As for non-creature spells, you have Mass Hysteria, Concordant Crossroads, Fervor, Rising of the Day. Though I would probably only consider Hammer of Purphoros as it can create tokens.
As for the token doublers, I'm not sure if they really fit the deck. Sure, they are staples for token strategies. But what's the point of making infinite tokens go double? Mondrak, Glory Dominus and Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation
Flip will put a bounty on your head which is not a good thing in a combo-deck. You want to stay under the radar until you can go off.
Mondrak only doubles creature tokens, so you are not making more treasures. And the other doublers like Anointed Procession, Parallel Lives etc. will not tap with Ghired. Since you also want to put in all the other Naya-staple enchantments like Smothering Tithe and Guardian Project etc., you will just fill your deck with non-creatures that don't synergize with your commander.
Some cards worth mentioning are:
- Illusionist's Bracers
- Cloudstone Curio (create a creature token, return a creature with an ETB to your hand).
- Helm of the Host
