Orchestration Implementation Guide β
Bridge from architectural specifications to working code. This guide provides reference implementations, development workflows, and practical examples for building orchestration layer components.
Quick Implementation Overview β
30-Second Architecture Summary β
User Query β CEO (Intent + Budget) β ACS (Provider Selection) β Execution β Results
5-Minute "Hello World" Pipeline β
- Start CEO: Parse intent, allocate basic budget
- Route to ACS: Select single provider based on simple scoring
- Execute: Call provider, handle timeout/errors
- Return: Format results with metadata
Implementation Roadmap β
Phase 1: Core Pipeline (v0) β
- [ ] CEO: Basic intent parsing + budget allocation
- [ ] ACS: Simple provider selection + execution
- [ ] Provider Interface: HTTP client with retry logic
- [ ] Error Handling: Timeout, retry, fallback patterns
Phase 2: Advanced Features (v1) β
- [ ] CEO: Advanced cognitive load management
- [ ] ACS: ML-based scoring models
- [ ] HCS: Streaming coordination (removed from v0)
- [ ] Monitoring: Comprehensive metrics and alerting
Component Implementation Priority β
Component | v0 Status | Implementation Priority | Complexity |
---|---|---|---|
CEO | Core | π₯ High | Medium |
ACS | Core | π₯ High | Medium |
Provider API | Core | π₯ High | Low |
HCS | Removed | βΈοΈ Phase 2 | High |
Metrics | Basic | π Medium | Low |
Reference Implementations β
CEO Component β
- Basic CEO Implementation: Intent parsing + budget allocation (30 mins)
- CEO Testing Guide: Unit tests + integration scenarios
- CEO Troubleshooting: Common issues + debugging
ACS Component β
- Basic ACS Implementation: Provider selection + execution (45 mins)
- ACS Scoring Models: Benefit/cost algorithms
- ACS Testing Guide: Mock providers + test scenarios
Provider Integration β
- Provider Implementation Template: Skeleton code for new providers
- Client Integration Guide: How to integrate with orchestration
- Authentication Patterns: API keys, OAuth, service accounts
Development Workflows β
Local Development Setup β
bash
# 1. Clone and setup
git clone <repo>
cd orchestration
npm install
# 2. Start local services
docker-compose up -d # Mock providers + monitoring
# 3. Run hello world
npm run dev:hello-world
# 4. Run tests
npm test
Testing Strategy β
- Unit Tests: Component isolation with mocks
- Integration Tests: Full pipeline with test providers
- Load Tests: Performance under realistic load
- Chaos Tests: Failure scenarios and recovery
Debugging Workflow β
- Enable Debug Logging:
DEBUG=orchestration:* npm start
- Check Component Health:
curl /health
endpoints - Trace Request Flow: Follow request ID through logs
- Validate Provider Responses: Check provider-specific logs
Common Implementation Patterns β
Error Handling Pattern β
typescript
async function executeWithRetry<T>(
operation: () => Promise<T>,
retries: number = 3,
timeout: number = 5000
): Promise<T> {
// Implementation example - see component guides
}
Configuration Management β
typescript
interface OrchestrationConfig {
ceo: CEOConfig;
acs: ACSConfig;
providers: ProviderConfig[];
monitoring: MonitoringConfig;
}
Monitoring Integration β
typescript
// Performance tracking
const metrics = new OrchestrationMetrics();
metrics.recordLatency('ceo.intent_parsing', duration);
metrics.incrementCounter('acs.provider_selection', {provider: 'openai'});
Production Deployment β
Infrastructure Requirements β
- CPU: 2-4 cores per orchestration instance
- Memory: 2-8GB depending on provider count
- Network: Low-latency connection to providers
- Storage: Minimal (stateless design)
Scaling Patterns β
- Horizontal: Multiple orchestration instances behind load balancer
- Provider-based: Scale ACS instances per provider type
- Geographic: Deploy close to user populations
Monitoring & Alerting β
- Request Success Rate: >99.5% uptime SLA
- Response Latency: <500ms p95 end-to-end
- Provider Health: Automatic failover on provider issues
- Error Rates: Alert on >1% error rate per component
Getting Started Checklist β
First 15 Minutes β
- [ ] Read this README
- [ ] Run local development setup
- [ ] Execute hello world example
- [ ] Verify all tests pass
First Hour β
- [ ] Implement basic CEO intent parsing
- [ ] Add simple ACS provider selection
- [ ] Test full pipeline with mock provider
- [ ] Add basic error handling
First Day β
- [ ] Connect to real provider (OpenAI/Anthropic)
- [ ] Add comprehensive logging
- [ ] Implement retry logic
- [ ] Add basic metrics collection
First Week β
- [ ] Add multiple provider support
- [ ] Implement budget management
- [ ] Add integration tests
- [ ] Deploy to staging environment
Troubleshooting Quick Reference β
Common Issues β
- Provider Timeouts: Check network connectivity and increase timeout values
- Budget Exhaustion: Review budget allocation algorithms
- Score Calculation Errors: Validate benefit/cost model inputs
- Memory Leaks: Check for unclosed connections and event listeners
Debug Commands β
bash
# Component health checks
curl localhost:3000/health/ceo
curl localhost:3000/health/acs
# Provider connectivity
npm run debug:providers
# Full system status
npm run status:all
Performance Profiling β
bash
# CPU profiling
npm run profile:cpu
# Memory profiling
npm run profile:memory
# Request tracing
npm run trace:requests
