AGI Alpha Node v0 · Cognitive Yield Engine ⚡️

AGI Alpha Node v0 is the owner-controlled intelligence engine that braids on-chain authority, libp2p runtime governance, and a fully provisioned observability wall. Every surface is tuned so the owner can pause, retune, or redirect the platform in a single transaction while the CI wall keeps the repository deployment-ready. The canonical token contract is anchored at 0xa61a3b3a130a9c20768eebf97e21515a6046a1fa (18 decimals) so treasury, staking, and governance always remain under explicit owner command.

The stack is curated like a flight deck built to defend a green badge wall: diagrams lint the same way GitHub renders them, CI surfaces every check as a visible status, and branch protection is wired to the same job names that the local npm run ci:verify emits. The owner keeps immediate control over runtime posture, validator rosters, identity routes, staking balances, and treasury sweeps—every override is accompanied by metrics, events, and dashboards so production actions are reversible, observable, and enforced by policy. All critical parameters stay owner-editable: pause/unpause, validator rosters, ENS routing, staking custody, treasury sweeps, validation/slashing, and address/controller rotation remain live from the same owner key that binds $AGIALPHA.

The repository is maintained as a production cockpit: mermaid diagrams lint for GitHub parity, coverage is gated at 85%+, dependency security is enforced on every PR, and branch protection mirrors the exact checks documented below so the CI badge is always green and visible. Badge targets, required checks, and CLI commands all share the same labels so GitHub, local runs, and Shields endpoints render identically.

Mermaid diagrams, badges, and CI gate names have been aligned so GitHub renders everything identically to local previews. The README, docs, dashboards, and workflow job names are kept in lockstep to make enforcement transparent: the required checks, badge endpoints, and npm run ci:verify output all share the same strings, so a green wall locally means a green wall on PRs and main. If a diagram ever looks off, run npm run lint:md (Markdown + mermaid validation) and, optionally, npx @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli -i README.md -o /tmp/readme.svg --scale 1.1 to confirm GitHub parity before opening a PR.

If you need to exercise owner authority live, every control surface (pause/unpause, validator gating, ENS routing, stake sweeps, treasury orchestration) remains callable without downtime; the CI and telemetry walls are structured to keep those interventions reproducible, observable, and recoverable. Required checks stay enforced on PRs and main so the badge board above reflects the same gates GitHub blocks on.

Operational promises at a glance

• Owner retains the right to update every meaningful parameter: pausing, validator rosters, ENS/identity routing, stake custody, and telemetry thresholds all stay under the same signer that anchors $AGIALPHA.
• CI is treated as a defensive shield wall: every gate is required, badge-visible, and mapped one-to-one to branch protection.
• Mermaid fidelity is validated by automation, with lint parity to GitHub’s renderer and command recipes for manual SVG/PNG previews.
• Documentation is wired to the repository layout (runtime, contracts, dashboard, subgraph, observability) so operators land on the exact file needed to act immediately.

Every subsystem is tuned to operate like the market-shifting machine strategists describe, yet it remains constrained by the owner’s key, telemetry wall, and enforced CI so that every override is deliberate and recoverable.

Smart contract control surface

$AGIALPHA is pinned to contract address 0xa61a3b3a130a9c20768eebf97e21515a6046a1fa (18 decimals). The owner holds every critical lever and can retarget the platform without redeploying.

• Pause/resume: pause() / unpause() freeze or reopen staking and validator flows immediately.
• Validator gating: setValidator(address,bool) toggles validator eligibility.
• Identity routing: registerIdentity, updateIdentityController, setIdentityStatus, revokeIdentity keep ENS-bound controllers aligned with the active operator set.
• Stake custody: withdrawStake(recipient, amount) lets the owner move staked balances.
• Token safety: the constructor refuses non-canonical token addresses unless the canonical $AGIALPHA is provided.
• Runtime override: owner-controlled pausing, validator toggles, identity rotation, and stake withdrawal are designed to be exercised live while telemetry + CI keep changes observable.
• Validation + slashing: recordAlphaWUValidation, recordAlphaWUAcceptance, and applySlash keep validator output accountable while preserving owner authority to accept, reject, or penalize work.
• Parameter oversight: the same owner key that binds $AGIALPHA can pause/unpause, rotate ENS controllers, gate validators, sweep staked balances, and drive slashing/acceptance hooks at any moment, keeping all runtime and treasury levers under direct owner custody with matching events for dashboards and subgraph consumers.

Runtime + observability autopilot

• /metrics surfaces resource-manager gauges (nrm_limits, nrm_usage), Yamux stream counters, QUIC handshake histograms, and dial outcomes to keep runtime pressure visible. Source: src/telemetry/networkMetrics.js.
• Resource manager ceilings and connection pruning thresholds read environment overrides (NRM_*, CONN_*) and are emitted alongside the active limits JSON. Source: src/network/resourceManagerConfig.js.
• Docker Compose starts Prometheus, Grafana, and Alertmanager with wired dashboards (libp2p_unified_dashboard.json, dcutr_dashboard.json) and alert rules (alerts.yml) on first load. Sources: docker-compose.yml, observability/prometheus/alerts.yml, grafana/provisioning/dashboards/libp2p.yaml.

CI and branch protection

The CI wall is the single source of truth for merging. Every gate is required on main and PRs and mirrors npm run ci:verify locally.

• Workflow: .github/workflows/ci.yml fans out linting, tests, coverage, Solidity checks, subgraph build, Docker smoke, and security audit before the aggregate verify stage.
• Required checks: .github/required-checks.json lists the exact status checks to enforce in GitHub branch protection (apply to main and all PRs).
• Local parity: npm run ci:verify executes the same gates so contributors can keep the badge wall green before opening a PR.
• Branch rule recipe: Settings → Branches → Add rule for main → Require a pull request before merging → Require status checks to pass using .github/required-checks.json → Require conversation resolution and “Require branches to be up to date.”
• Enforcement sanity check: After applying the branch rule, push a test PR to confirm GitHub blocks merging until every required check turns green and the workflow badge above reflects the latest run.
• Badge publishing: wire BADGE_GIST_ID and BADGE_GIST_TOKEN (see docs/deployment/branch-protection.md) so the badges job can auto-push Shields endpoint JSON for lint, tests, solidity, subgraph, docker, security, and coverage.

Status check	Job ID	Local command	Badge endpoint key
Lint Markdown & Links	lint	npm run lint:md && npm run lint:links && npm run lint:grafana	lint.json

Rendering + enforcement guardrails

• Mermaid parity: npm run lint:md and npm run lint:links validate diagram fences and anchors exactly as GitHub parses them so every flowchart above stays visible on repository pages. Use npx @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli locally if you want PNG/SVG spot checks, but the lint gate is authoritative for PRs.
• Badge fidelity: the CI badge at the top of this README points to ci.yml on main; if a required check fails, the badge turns red and branch protection blocks merges. The optional badges job publishes Shields endpoints using the same job names so you can embed granular status badges without editing workflow code.
• Branch rules: apply .github/required-checks.json to main and enable “Require branches to be up to date” + “Require conversation resolution.” This keeps the Full CI Verification wall, individual gates, and the aggregated verify step visible to reviewers and enforced on every PR.
• Mermaid parity recipe: npm run lint:md already validates diagram fences exactly as GitHub renders them; for a pixel-for-pixel check run npx @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli -i README.md -o /tmp/readme.svg --scale 1.2 before pushing. This keeps every flowchart above identical in GitHub’s renderer and in docs exports.
• GitHub enforcement receipts: after applying branch rules, confirm the shield wall with gh api repos/MontrealAI/AGI-Alpha-Node-v0/branches/main/protection | jq .required_status_checks.contexts and capture the output as evidence in your operations log.
• Mermaid GitHub preview: to double-check GitHub rendering before opening a PR, run npx @mermaid-js/mermaid-cli -i README.md -o /tmp/readme.svg --scale 1.2 && file /tmp/readme.svg or open the SVG locally; parity with npm run lint:md ensures the diagrams stay visible on repository pages.

Owner control quick reference

The owner retains complete control over runtime, treasury, validators, and identity anchors while keeping telemetry and CI in lockstep.

• Runtime switches: pause/unpause gates (pause, unpause) and validator roster updates (setValidator).
• Identity + ENS: register, rotate, suspend, or revoke ENS-linked controllers (registerIdentity, updateIdentityController, setIdentityStatus, revokeIdentity).
• Staking flows: custody adjustments (withdrawStake), on-chain staking (stake), and validator validation/acceptance hooks (recordAlphaWUValidation, recordAlphaWUAcceptance, applySlash).
• Auditability: every change emits events that the subgraph indexes so dashboards and alerts stay synchronized.
• Operator experience: all owner functions are callable as live overrides—pause, retune validator eligibility, swap ENS controllers, or redirect funds—without redeploying contracts or touching runtime binaries.

Owner function matrix

The canonical $AGIALPHA deployment at 0xa61a3b3a130a9c20768eebf97e21515a6046a1fa (18 decimals) keeps the owner at the center of every production lever.

Capability	Function(s)	Effect	Telemetry + audit hooks
Halt or resume live flows	pause, unpause	Pauses or resumes staking, validator work units, and treasury orchestrations in a single owner transaction.	Emits pause/unpause events; surfaces in /metrics, Grafana tiles, and the subgraph.
Validator roster control	setValidator	Adds or removes eligible validators instantly.	Validator roster changes appear in events, subgraph bindings, and the dashboard roster view.
Identity/ENS routing	registerIdentity, updateIdentityController, setIdentityStatus, revokeIdentity	Aligns ENS controllers with active operators; supports rotation and emergency revocation.	ENS + identity events propagate to the indexer and Grafana alerts.
Treasury and stake custody	withdrawStake, applySlash, recordAlphaWUValidation, recordAlphaWUAcceptance	Moves staked balances, accepts/rejects work units, and applies slashing with owner authority.	Emits ledger and validation events that the subgraph, Prometheus, and dashboard ingest.
Canonical token guardrail	Constructor enforces 0xa61a3b3a130a9c20768eebf97e21515a6046a1fa	Rejects non-canonical token bindings to prevent drift from $AGIALPHA.	Deployment logs and Solidity checks validate the binding; CI solidity gate re-runs the constraint.

Quick start

1. Install dependencies: npm ci (Node.js 20.18+).
2. Build artifacts: npm run build — renders the subgraph manifest with your ALPHA_NODE_MANAGER_* overrides, compiles the subgraph, and ships the dashboard bundle.
3. Run the CI wall locally: npm run ci:verify — mirrors the workflow and keeps required checks green (matches .github/required-checks.json).
4. Bring up observability: docker-compose up -d prom grafana alertmanager — Prometheus at :9090, Grafana at :3000 (admin/admin), Alertmanager at :9093 with dashboards and alerts pre-provisioned.
5. Explore metrics: visit http://localhost:9090/targets to confirm the scrape job is UP; dashboards load automatically under Grafana → Manage.
6. Exercise governance: call the owner-only functions on AlphaNodeManager to pause/unpause, gate validators, rotate ENS controllers, or withdraw stake; metrics and dashboards reflect changes immediately.
7. Keep docs + mermaids crisp: npm run lint:md and npm run lint:links verify README/docs rendering (including mermaid diagrams) exactly as GitHub displays them.
8. Publish shields (optional): add BADGE_GIST_ID + BADGE_GIST_TOKEN secrets, then let the badges job publish Shields endpoints you can embed here for a permanent “all green” wall.

Testing and validation

• npm run lint:md — verify Markdown and mermaid fences render on GitHub.
• npm run lint:links — ensure README and docs links stay valid.
• npm run lint:grafana — lint dashboard JSON for GitHub/Grafana parity.
• npm run test && npm run test:frontend — backend + dashboard Vitest suites.
• npm run coverage — coverage gates for networking/telemetry modules.
• npm run ci:solidity — solhint + solc for $AGIALPHA contracts.
• npm run ci:ts — build/codegen for the subgraph.
• npm run ci:security — high-severity dependency audit.
• npm run ci:verify — the full wall before pushing.

Operational guarantees

• Owner sovereignty: every critical parameter (pausing, validator roster, identity controllers, stake custody) is owner-triggered and mirrored in telemetry so overrides are safe to execute in production.
• Canonical token binding: AlphaNodeManager locks to $AGIALPHA at 0xa61a3b3a130a9c20768eebf97e21515a6046a1fa (18 decimals) to prevent drift.
• Observability-first: /metrics, Prometheus, Grafana dashboards, and Alertmanager routes are prewired; linting ensures dashboards render on GitHub and in Grafana identically.
• CI-as-gatekeeper: workflow + required checks enforce lint, tests, coverage, Solidity checks, Docker smoke, subgraph build, security audit, and final verification. PRs cannot merge without a green wall.
• Non-technical deployability: docker-compose up brings the telemetry wall online, and npm run ci:verify mirrors the GitHub workflow so contributors can reproduce the green state locally.
• Owner-tuned runtime: pausing, validator changes, ENS controller swaps, staking withdrawals, and validation hooks are all callable by the contract owner at any time to reshape the platform for new workloads or mitigations without downtime.

AGI Alpha Node v0 is engineered so the owner can reshape validator, identity, treasury, and network posture instantly while the telemetry wall and CI gates keep every change observable, reproducible, and green.

Every control in this repository is wired so the owner can steer the platform like a singular intelligence core: pausing live flows, rewriting validator/identity maps, sweeping stake, and pivoting runtime posture with the same confidence shown by the green CI badge. The result is a cockpit that delivers outsized leverage to the owner while keeping every move accountable and visible to operators, auditors, and automated guardians.
