### Core Components

**Adapter Architecture**

- Async base adapter interface for orchestration engines
- Pluggable adapters for LlamaIndex (RAG), Prefect (flows), Agno (agents)
- Easy to add new orchestration backends

**Configuration System**

- Oneiric-based layered configuration (defaults → YAML → env vars)
- Type-safe Pydantic models with validation
- Environment variable overrides via `MAHAVISHNU_{GROUP}__{FIELD}`

**Pool Management**

- Multi-pool orchestration across local, delegated, and cloud workers
- Auto-routing strategies: round_robin, least_loaded, random, affinity
- Memory aggregation across pools with cross-pool search

**Error Handling**

- Custom exception hierarchy with circuit breaker patterns
- Structured error context with `message`, `details`, and `to_dict()`
- Retry logic with exponential backoff

## Installation

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.11 or later
- uv (recommended) or pip
- git

### Install Mahavishnu

```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mahavishnu.git
cd mahavishnu

# Create virtual environment
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate

# Install with development dependencies
uv pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Verify installation
mahavishnu --help
```

See [Getting Started Guide](docs/GETTING_STARTED.md) for detailed installation instructions.

## Quick Start

### 1. Configure Repositories

Edit `settings/repos.yaml` to define your repositories:

```yaml
repos:
  - name: "my-project"
    package: "my_project"
    path: "/path/to/my-project"
    nickname: "myproj"
    role: "app"
    tags: ["backend", "python"]
    description: "My backend application"
    mcp: "native"
```

### 2. Configure Mahavishnu

Edit `settings/mahavishnu.yaml`:

```yaml
server_name: "Mahavishnu Orchestrator"
log_level: INFO
repos_path: settings/repos.yaml

# Pool management
pools:
  enabled: true
  default_type: "mahavishnu"
  routing_strategy: "least_loaded"

# Worker orchestration
workers:
  enabled: true
  max_concurrent: 10
  default_type: "terminal-qwen"

# Quality control
qc:
  enabled: true
  min_score: 80
```

### 3. List Repositories

```bash
# List all repositories
mahavishnu list-repos

# Filter by tag
mahavishnu list-repos --tag python

# Filter by role
mahavishnu list-repos --role orchestrator

# Show role details
mahavishnu show-role orchestrator
```

### 4. Start MCP Server

```bash
mahavishnu mcp start
```

The MCP server starts on `http://127.0.0.1:3000` and exposes 49+ production-ready tools.

### 5. Use Admin Shell

```bash
mahavishnu shell
```

Interactive shell commands:

- `ps()` - Show all workflows
- `top()` - Show active workflows with progress
- `errors(n=10)` - Show recent errors
- `%repos` - List repositories

For more workflows, see the [Getting Started Guide](docs/GETTING_STARTED.md).

## Core Concepts

### Repository Roles

Mahavishnu uses a role-based taxonomy to organize repositories:

| Role | Description | Capabilities |
|------|-------------|--------------|
| **orchestrator** | Coordinates workflows | sweep, schedule, monitor, route |
| **resolver** | Resolves components | resolve, activate, swap, explain |
| **manager** | Manages state | capture, search, restore, track |
| **inspector** | Validates quality | test, lint, scan, report |
| **builder** | Builds applications | render, route, authenticate |
| **tool** | MCP integrations | connect, expose, integrate |

### Pool Types

**MahavishnuPool** (Direct Management)

- Low-latency local worker execution
- Dynamic scaling (min_workers to max_workers)
- Use for: local development, debugging, CI/CD

**SessionBuddyPool** (Delegated)

- Delegates to Session-Buddy instances (3 workers each)
- Remote execution via MCP protocol
- Use for: distributed workloads, multi-server deployments

**KubernetesPool** (Cloud-Native)

- Deploys workers as Kubernetes Jobs/Pods
- Auto-scaling via HPA
- Use for: production deployments, auto-scaling workloads

### Worker Types

- **terminal-qwen** - Headless Qwen CLI execution
- **terminal-claude** - Headless Claude Code CLI execution
- **container-executor** - Containerized task execution (Phase 3)
