+## 🔧 How It Works
+
+```
+1. User's Mono Transactions + Manual Entries
+   ↓
+2. Transaction Classifier
+   - Categorizes: income, deductions, expenses
+   - Confidence scoring
+   ↓
+3. Transaction Aggregator
+   - Sums up by category
+   - Converts to TaxEngine inputs
+   ↓
+4. Baseline Tax Calculation
+   - Uses your existing TaxEngine
+   - Calculates current tax liability
+   ↓
+5. Strategy Extractor (RAG)
+   - Queries tax PDFs for strategies
+   - Matches to user profile
+   ↓
+6. Scenario Generator
+   - Creates "what-if" scenarios
+   - Maximizes deductions, etc.
+   ↓
+7. Scenario Simulation
+   - Runs each through TaxEngine
+   - Calculates savings
+   ↓
+8. Recommendation Ranker
+   - Sorts by savings potential
+   - Adds implementation steps
+   - Returns top 10 recommendations
+```
+
+## 📊 Example Output
+
+For a user earning ₦6M/year with basic deductions:
+
+```json
+{
+  "baseline_tax_liability": 850000,
+  "optimized_tax_liability": 720000,
+  "total_potential_savings": 130000,
+  "savings_percentage": 15.3,
+  
+  "recommendations": [
+    {
+      "rank": 1,
+      "strategy_name": "Maximize Pension Contributions",
+      "annual_tax_savings": 50000,

+## Usage Examples
+
+### Example 1: Basic Usage
+
+```python
+import requests
+
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:8000/v1/optimize", json={
+    "user_id": "user123",
+    "transactions": [
+        {
+            "type": "credit",

+```
+
+### Example 2: With Full Profile
+
+```python
+payload = {
+    "user_id": "user456",
+    "transactions": [...],  # Your Mono transactions
+    "taxpayer_profile": {
+        "taxpayer_type": "individual",
+        "employment_status": "employed",
+        "annual_income": 6000000,
+        "has_rental_income": True,
+        "location": "Lagos"
+    },
+    "tax_year": 2025
+}
+
+response = requests.post("http://localhost:8000/v1/optimize", json=payload)
+```
+
+### Example 3: Run Example Script
+
+```bash
+# Make sure API is running
+uvicorn orchestrator:app --reload --port 8000
+
+# In another terminal
+python example_optimize.py
+```
+
+## Integration with Mono API
+
+The optimizer is designed to work with your existing Mono integration:
+
+```python
+# Pseudo-code for your backend
+def optimize_user_taxes(user_id):
+    # 1. Fetch transactions from Mono
+    mono_transactions = mono_client.get_transactions(user_id)
+    
+    # 2. Fetch manual transactions from your DB
+    manual_transactions = db.get_manual_transactions(user_id)
+    
+    # 3. Combine and send to optimizer
+    all_transactions = mono_transactions + manual_transactions
+    
+    response = requests.post("http://localhost:8000/v1/optimize", json={
+        "user_id": user_id,
+        "transactions": all_transactions,
+        "tax_year": 2025
+    })
+    
+    return response.json()
+```
+
+## Transaction Classification Patterns
+
+The classifier recognizes Nigerian bank narration patterns:
+
+**Income:**
+- `SALARY`, `WAGES`, `PAYROLL`, `EMPLOYMENT` → employment_income
+- `SALES`, `REVENUE`, `INVOICE`, `CLIENT` → business_income
+- `RENT RECEIVED`, `TENANT` → rental_income
+- `DIVIDEND`, `INTEREST` → investment_income
+
+**Deductions:**
+- `PENSION`, `PFA`, `RSA` → pension_contribution
+- `NHF`, `HOUSING FUND` → nhf_contribution
+- `LIFE INSURANCE`, `POLICY PREMIUM` → life_insurance
+- `RENT`, `LANDLORD` → rent_paid
+- `UNION DUES`, `PROFESSIONAL FEES` → union_dues
+
+## Optimization Strategies
+
+The system extracts and applies these strategies:
+
+### For Individuals (PIT)
+1. **Maximize Pension Contributions** - Up to 20% of gross income
+2. **Life Insurance Premiums** - Tax-deductible
+3. **NHF Contributions** - 2.5% of basic salary
+4. **Rent Relief (2026+)** - 20% of rent, max ₦500K under NTA 2025
+5. **Union/Professional Dues** - Tax-deductible
+
+### For Companies (CIT)
+1. **Small Company Exemption** - 0% CIT if turnover ≤ ₦25M
+2. **Capital Allowances** - Depreciation on qualifying assets
+3. **Expense Timing** - Accelerate deductible expenses
+
+### Timing Strategies
+1. **Income Deferral** - Delay income to lower tax year
+2. **Expense Acceleration** - Bring forward deductible expenses
+
+## Configuration
+
+The optimizer uses these settings from `orchestrator.py`:
+
+```python
+RULES_PATH = "rules/rules_all.yaml"  # Tax rules
+PDF_SOURCE = "data"                  # Tax acts PDFs
+EMBED_MODEL = "sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2"
+GROQ_MODEL = "llama-3.1-8b-instant"
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- **GROQ_API_KEY** environment variable must be set
+- Tax act PDFs in `data/` folder
+- RAG pipeline initialized (happens automatically on startup)
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+# Start the API
+uvicorn orchestrator:app --reload --port 8000
+
+# Run example
+python example_optimize.py
+
+# Check API docs
+# Open http://localhost:8000/docs
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+The optimizer returns appropriate HTTP status codes:
+
+- `200` - Success
+- `503` - Optimizer not available (RAG not initialized)
+- `500` - Optimization failed (check error message)
+
+## Performance
+
+- **Classification**: ~100ms per transaction
+- **Aggregation**: ~50ms for 1000 transactions
+- **Strategy Extraction**: ~2-5 seconds (RAG queries)
+- **Scenario Simulation**: ~500ms per scenario
+- **Total**: ~10-20 seconds for typical optimization request
+
+## Limitations
+
+1. **Transaction Classification**: ~85-95% accuracy depending on narration quality
+2. **Strategy Extraction**: Limited to strategies documented in tax PDFs
+3. **Scenario Simulation**: Currently limited to 5-10 scenarios
+4. **Tax Types**: Primarily optimized for PIT; CIT support is basic
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+- [ ] Multi-year optimization planning
+- [ ] Company structure optimization (sole proprietor vs limited company)
+- [ ] Capital gains tax optimization
+- [ ] VAT optimization strategies
+- [ ] Integration with tax filing APIs
+- [ ] Machine learning for better transaction classification
+- [ ] User feedback loop to improve recommendations
+
+## Support
+
+For issues or questions:
+1. Check API docs: `http://localhost:8000/docs`
+2. Review example scripts: `example_optimize.py`
+3. Check logs for detailed error messages

+# Kaanta Tax Assistant – Usage Guide
+
+This guide explains how to set up and operate the Kaanta Tax Assistant service, which blends a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) helper with a deterministic Nigerian tax rules engine. You can use it as a CLI tool, run it as a FastAPI microservice, or deploy it to Hugging Face Spaces via the provided Docker image.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Prerequisites
+- Python 3.11 (recommended) for local execution.
+- A Groq API key with access to `llama-3.1-8b-instant` (or another model you configure).
+- PDF source documents placed under `data/` (or a custom directory) for RAG indexing.
+- Basic build chain (`build-essential`, `git`) when building Docker images.
+
+Environment variables (configure locally in `.env` or as deployment secrets):
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `GROQ_API_KEY` | — | Required for RAG responses (Groq LLM). |
+| `EMBED_MODEL` | `sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2` | Hugging Face embeddings for FAISS. |
+| `GROQ_MODEL` | `llama-3.1-8b-instant` | Groq chat model used by LangChain. |
+| `PERSIST_DIR` | `vector_store` | Directory for cached FAISS index. |
+
+Set variables by editing `.env` or exporting them in your shell before running the service.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+python -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate          # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
+pip install --upgrade pip
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+The requirements file installs FastAPI, LangChain, FAISS CPU bindings, Groq client, Hugging Face tooling, and supporting scientific libraries.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Preparing Data for RAG
+
+1. Place your PDF references beneath `data/`. Nested folders are supported.
+2. The first run will build or refresh the FAISS store under `vector_store/`. The hashing routine skips rebuilding unless the PDFs change.
+3. If you already have a prepared FAISS index, drop it into `vector_store/` and set `PERSIST_DIR` accordingly.
+
+> **Tip:** If you deploy to Hugging Face Spaces, consider committing the populated `vector_store/` to avoid long cold-starts.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Running the FastAPI Service Locally
+
+```bash
+uvicorn orchestrator:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
+```
+
+Endpoints:
+- `GET /` – service metadata and readiness flags.
+- `GET /health` – lightweight health probe.
+- `POST /v1/query` – main orchestration endpoint.
+
+Example request:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/query \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+        "question": "Compute PAYE for gross income 1,500,000",
+        "inputs": {"gross_income": 1500000}
+      }'
+```
+
+Illustrative response (`rag_only` shape omitted):
+
+```json

+
+## 5. Using the CLI Router (Orchestrator)
+
+Although the FastAPI service is now the main entry point, you can still invoke the orchestrator CLI:
+
+```bash
+python orchestrator.py \
+  --question "How much VAT should I pay on 2,000,000 turnover?" \
+  --tax-type VAT \
+  --jurisdiction federal \
+  --inputs-json fixtures/vat_example.json
+```
+
+This will print the same JSON payload returned by the HTTP API.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Docker Workflow
+
+Build the container:
+
+```bash
+docker build -t kaanta-tax-api .
+```
+
+Run locally:
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -p 7860:7860 \
+  -e GROQ_API_KEY=your_key_here \
+  -v "$(pwd)/data:/app/data" \
+  -v "$(pwd)/vector_store:/app/vector_store" \
+  kaanta-tax-api
+```
+
+The container starts Uvicorn on port `7860` (the port Hugging Face Spaces expects). Mounting `data/` and `vector_store/` lets you reuse local assets.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Deploying to Hugging Face Spaces
+
+1. Create a Space, select **Docker** runtime.
+2. Add a Space secret `GROQ_API_KEY`.
+3. Push repository contents (including `Dockerfile`, PDFs, optional FAISS cache).
+4. Spaces builds automatically from the Dockerfile.
+
+The deployed API will be reachable at `https://<space-name>.hf.space/v1/query`.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Integrating as an HTTP Microservice
+
+Example Python client:
+
+```python
+import requests
+
+BASE_URL = "https://<space-name>.hf.space"
+
+payload = {
+    "question": "What is the PAYE liability for 1.5M NGN salary?",
+    "inputs": {"gross_income": 1_500_000}
+}
+
+resp = requests.post(f"{BASE_URL}/v1/query", json=payload, timeout=60)
+resp.raise_for_status()
+print(resp.json())
+```
+
+Prefer a ready-made CLI? Run `python client_demo.py --question "..." --input gross_income=1500000` to hit a live instance (defaults to `https://eniiyanu-kaanta.hf.space`; override with `--base-url`). Pass `--hf-token <hf_xxx>` if your Space is private.
+
+Handle both `rag_only` and `calculate` response shapes in your downstream services.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Troubleshooting
+
+- **RAG not initialized:** Ensure PDFs exist in `data/`, `GROQ_API_KEY` is valid, and the Groq service is reachable.
+- **FAISS build errors:** Delete `vector_store/` and rerun; check that `faiss-cpu` installed correctly.
+- **Model timeouts:** Adjust `with_rag_quotes_on_calc` to `false` for calculator-only paths or experiment with smaller `top_k` values in `rag_pipeline.py`.
+- **Docker build failures on arm64:** Switch to a base image that supports FAISS for your architecture or prebuild the FAISS index elsewhere.
+
+---
+
+With this workflow, you can run Kaanta locally, ship it via Docker to Hugging Face, and consume it as a microservice or CLI tool depending on your needs.
