+# OpusAgent
+
+Servizio self-hosted per l'interazione programmatica con i modelli Anthropic
+tramite Claude Code SDK, sfruttando un abbonamento Claude Pro/Max esistente.
+
+## Architettura
+
+Due container Docker:
+- **fastapi-service** — API REST, autenticazione, coda richieste, rate limiting
+- **claude-worker** — Processamento richieste via Claude Code SDK
+
+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisiti
+
+- Docker e Docker Compose
+- Un abbonamento Claude Pro/Max attivo
+
+### Prima installazione
+
+1. Copia e configura l'environment:
+   ```bash
+   cp .env.example .env
+   # Edita .env: imposta API_KEY e le altre variabili
+   ```
+
+2. Autentica Claude Code nel worker:
+   ```bash
+   docker compose run --rm claude-worker npx claude login
+   ```
+
+3. Avvia il sistema:
+   ```bash
+   docker compose up -d
+   ```
+
+4. Verifica:
+   ```bash
+   curl -H "X-Api-Key: TUA_KEY" http://localhost:8000/api/health
+   ```
+
+## Sviluppo locale
+
+```bash
+uv sync --all-groups
+cp .env.example .env
+# Edita .env
+uv run dev
+```
+
+## Test
+
+```bash
+uv run pytest -v
+```
+
+## API
+
+Documentazione completa: `http://localhost:8000/doc`
+
+### Esempio d'uso
+
+```bash
+# Crea un argomento
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/topics \
+  -H "X-Api-Key: TUA_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"name": "coding", "system_prompt": "Sei un esperto sviluppatore."}'
+
+# Invia una richiesta
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/requests \
+  -H "X-Api-Key: TUA_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"prompt": "Come implemento JWT in FastAPI?", "topic_id": "ID_TOPIC"}'
+
+# Controlla il risultato
+curl http://localhost:8000/api/requests/ID_RICHIESTA \
+  -H "X-Api-Key: TUA_KEY"
+```
