**Distributed Intelligence Node — Local AI Brain for Inference-X**

ECHO-IX provides a self-hosted AI coordination layer that connects to
[Inference-X](https://inference-x.com) for fully local, private inference.
Zero cloud dependency. Complete data sovereignty.

## Components

| File | Role |
|------|------|
| `echo_queen_ix.py` | Central node — HTTP API + task orchestration |
| `echo_cli.py` | CLI interface for interacting with the node |
| `echo_total.py` | Lightweight standalone inference interface |

## Quick Start

```bash
export ECHO_MEMORY=/data/echo_memory
export INFERENCE_X_BIN=/usr/local/bin/inference-x

python3 echo_queen_ix.py        # Start node on port 8090
python3 echo_cli.py status      # Check node status
python3 echo_cli.py think "..."  # Query the node
```
