Setup Instructions

Step 1: Environment Configuration

1. Copy environment template:

cp .env.example .env

2. Configure NVIDIA NIM API:

# Get API key from NVIDIA NIM / build.nvidia.com
export NVIDIA_API_KEY="nvapi-your-api-key"

3. Update .env file:

# Elephant Alpha Configuration
NVIDIA_API_KEY=nvapi-your-nvidia-api-key-here
ELEPHANT_ALPHA_NEMOTRON_NIM_ENDPOINT=https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1
ELEPHANT_ALPHA_URL=https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1/chat/completions
ELEPHANT_ALPHA_MODEL=nvidia/llama-3.3-nemotron-super-49b-v1.5
ELEPHANT_ALPHA_FALLBACK_MODELS=nvidia/llama-3.3-nemotron-super-49b-v1.5,nvidia/llama-3.1-nemotron-70b-instruct,meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct
ELEPHANT_TIMEOUT=120
ELEPHANT_ALPHA_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD=0.7
ELEPHANT_ALPHA_MAX_AUTONOMOUS_DECISIONS_PER_HOUR=10

Runtime fallback rule: ElephantService tries the next ELEPHANT_ALPHA_FALLBACK_MODELS entry when NVIDIA NIM returns 403/404, transient 408/409/425/429, 5xx, timeout, or connection error. Non-transient client errors such as HTTP 400 fail fast so bad requests do not burn quota across all models.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

# Install required packages
pip install requests numpy asyncio

# Elephant Alpha uses existing infrastructure
# No additional dependencies required

Step 3: Start the Application

# Start momo-pro-system
python app.py

# Elephant Alpha will automatically initialize
# Check logs for registration status

Step 4: Verify Installation

# Health check
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/health

# Expected response:
{
  "success": true,
  "healthy": true,
  "components": {
    "orchestrator": true,
    "autonomous_engine": true,
    "decision_router": true,
    "api_key_configured": true
  }
}

  -d '{
    "task_type": "threat_response",
    "urgency": "critical",
    "complexity": "simple",
    "quality_requirement": "premium"
  }'

3. Start Autonomous Engine

curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/autonomous/start

4. Monitor Performance

# Agent performance
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/agents/performance

# Autonomous status
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/autonomous/status

# Decision history
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/decisions/history

Autonomous Triggers

Elephant Alpha monitors and automatically responds to:

1. Price Drop Alerts

• Competitor price drops > 15%
• Multiple products affected
• Automatic price optimization recommendations

2. Market Opportunities

• Competitor stockouts
• Our inventory availability
• Automatic promotion suggestions

3. Threat Escalation

• High threat scores (> 0.9)
• Worsening trends
• Automatic human escalation

4. Resource Optimization

• High system load
• Queue management
• Dynamic resource allocation

Configuration Options

Behavior Settings

• ELEPHANT_ALPHA_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD: Minimum confidence for autonomous decisions (0.5-0.9)
• ELEPHANT_ALPHA_MAX_AUTONOMOUS_DECISIONS_PER_HOUR: Rate limiting (1-20)
• ELEPHANT_ALPHA_TIMEOUT_SECONDS: Maximum decision time (30-300)

Integration Settings

• ELEPHANT_ALPHA_HERMES_URL: Hermes agent endpoint
• ELEPHANT_ALPHA_HERMES_MODEL: Hermes model name
• ELEPHANT_ALPHA_NEMOTRON_NIM_ENDPOINT: NemoTron NIM endpoint
• ELEPHANT_ALPHA_OPENCLAW_GEMINI_ENDPOINT: OpenClaw Gemini endpoint

Monitoring and Debugging

1. Logs

# Elephant Alpha logs
tail -f logs/elephant_alpha_orchestrator.log
tail -f logs/elephant_alpha_autonomous.log
tail -f logs/elephant_alpha_router.log

2. Metrics

# Performance metrics
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/agents/performance

# Decision history
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/decisions/history?limit=50

3. Health Checks

# Overall health
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/health

# Component status
curl http://localhost:5000/api/elephant-alpha/agents/status

Advanced Usage

1. Custom Triggers

Create custom autonomous triggers by modifying services/elephant_alpha_autonomous_engine.py:

# Add to _initialize_triggers()
AutonomousTrigger(
    trigger_type="custom_business_rule",
    conditions={"your_condition": "value"},
    threshold=0.8,
    enabled=True
)

2. Routing Strategies

Modify routing behavior in services/event_router.py and services/elephant_alpha_orchestrator.py. services/elephant_alpha_decision_router.py was removed during Phase 3f cleanup and must not be reintroduced:

# Add custom routing strategy
class RoutingStrategy(Enum):
    CUSTOM_STRATEGY = "custom_strategy"

3. Agent Integration

Add new agents to the orchestrator:

# Register new agent in elephant_orchestrator.py
self.agents["new_agent"] = AgentCapability(
    name="New Agent",
    model="new-model",
    strengths=["capability1", "capability2"],
    limitations=["limitation1"],
    cost_per_token=0.0,
    max_context=32000
)

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. API Key Not Configured

   Error: OPENROUTER_API_KEY environment variable required
   

   Solution: Set the environment variable or add to .env file

2. Agent Connection Failed

   Error: Agent execution failed
   

   Solution: Check agent endpoints and network connectivity

3. High Memory Usage

   Error: Memory allocation failed
   

   Solution: Reduce context window or increase system memory

Debug Mode

Enable debug mode for detailed logging:

ELEPHANT_ALPHA_DEBUG_MODE=true

Performance Optimization

1. Context Window

• Default: 256K tokens
• Adjust based on available memory
• Larger context = better strategic reasoning

2. Confidence Threshold

• Default: 0.7
• Higher = more conservative decisions
• Lower = more autonomous actions

3. Rate Limiting

• Default: 10 decisions/hour
• Adjust based on business needs
• Prevents API overuse

Security Considerations

1. API Key Protection

   • Never commit API keys to version control
   • Use environment variables
   • Rotate keys regularly

2. Autonomous Safeguards

   • Confidence thresholds prevent risky decisions
   • Human escalation for critical impacts
   • Audit logging for all decisions

3. Network Security

   • Secure agent communication
   • Validate all inputs
   • Monitor for anomalies

Support

For issues and questions:

1. Check logs for error details
2. Verify environment configuration
3. Test individual components
4. Review decision history for patterns

Future Enhancements

1. Multi-Model Support

   • GPT-4 Turbo integration
   • Claude 3.5 Sonnet support
   • Dynamic model selection

2. Advanced Learning

   • Reinforcement learning
