# Start with auto-detection (finds Genesis, vLLM, Ollama, or cloud)
aithernode start

# Run the published container
docker run --rm -p 8090:8090 ghcr.io/aitherium/aithernode:latest

# Force specific backend
aithernode start --vllm-url http://localhost:8120
aithernode start --cloud
aithernode start --local

Backend Priority (auto mode)

1. Genesis (localhost:8001) — full AitherOS pipeline (context, memory, agents)
2. vLLM (localhost:8120) — direct GPU inference (OpenAI-compatible)
3. Elysium (cloud) — hosted AitherOS (requires API key)
4. Ollama (localhost:11434) — local CPU/GPU inference
5. Standalone — no LLM, tools-only mode
