> **Intelligent AI model orchestration that treats AI models as specialized agents, not black boxes.**

AI Council is a revolutionary Python-based system that intelligently coordinates multiple specialized AI models to solve complex problems. Unlike simple API wrappers or single-model solutions, AI Council treats AI models as specialized agents with distinct strengths, weaknesses, and operational characteristics—ensuring no single model is blindly trusted for all tasks.

## 🌟 Why AI Council?

In today's AI landscape, **relying on a single AI model is like using only one tool for every job**. AI Council solves this by:

- **🎯 Intelligent Task Routing**: Automatically routes tasks to the most suitable AI models
- **⚖️ Conflict Resolution**: Arbitrates between conflicting outputs from different models  
- **💰 Cost Optimization**: Balances cost, speed, and quality based on your requirements
- **🛡️ Reliability**: Provides fallback mechanisms and graceful failure handling
- **📊 Transparency**: Offers structured self-assessments and confidence scoring
- **🔧 Extensibility**: Clean architecture that grows with your needs

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
# Install from PyPI (recommended)
pip install ai-council

# Or install from source
git clone https://github.com/shrixtacy/Ai-Council.git
cd Ai-Council
pip install -e .
```

### Basic Usage

```python
from ai_council.factory import AICouncilFactory
from ai_council.core.models import ExecutionMode

# Initialize AI Council
factory = AICouncilFactory()
ai_council = factory.create_ai_council_sync()

# Process a complex request
response = ai_council.process_request_sync(
    "Analyze the pros and cons of renewable energy adoption and provide actionable recommendations",
    ExecutionMode.BALANCED
)

print(f"Response: {response.content}")
print(f"Confidence: {response.overall_confidence:.2f}")
print(f"Models Used: {', '.join(response.models_used)}")
print(f"Cost: ${response.cost_breakdown.total_cost:.4f}")
```
