🤖 AI Council Orchestrator

A Production-Grade Multi-Agent AI Orchestration System

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

# Install from PyPI (Official Release)
pip install ai-council-orchestrator

# Verify installation
python -c "from ai_council.factory import AICouncilFactory; print('✅ AI Council Orchestrator ready!')"

Basic Usage

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}")

🛠 Local Development Setup

This section explains how to set up and run AI Council locally after cloning the repository. It is intended for contributors and developers.

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/shrixtacy/Ai-Council.git
cd Ai-Council

### 2. Create and activate a virtual environment (recommended)

```bash
# Windows
python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate

# macOS / Linux
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

### 3. Install dependencies

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt

### 4️⃣ Verify the setup

```bash
python -c "from ai_council.factory import AICouncilFactory; print('AI Council setup successful')"


### 5️⃣ Run the project locally
You can run example scripts to verify everything works:

```bash
python examples/basic_usage.py

### ⚠️ Common Issues

- Ensure Python version is **3.8+**
- Always activate the virtual environment before running commands
- Make sure required API keys are added to the `.env` file
- If port `8000` is busy, stop other services using it

### Web Interface (Testing & Development)

AI Council includes a web interface for easy testing and interaction:

```bash
# 1. Configure your API keys
cd web_app/backend
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your API keys (Google Gemini, xAI Grok, etc.)

# 2. Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# 3. Start the backend server
python main.py

# 4. Open the web interface
# Navigate to http://localhost:8000 in your browser

Web Interface Features:

• 🎯 Interactive query interface
• 📊 Real-time response streaming
• 💰 Cost and performance metrics
• 🔍 Model selection and execution mode control
• 📈 System health monitoring

See web_app/README.md for detailed setup instructions.
