+# dora-llama-cpp-python
+
+A Dora node that provides access to LLaMA models using llama-cpp-python for efficient CPU/GPU inference.
+
+## Features
+
+- GPU acceleration support (CUDA on Linux, Metal on macOS)
+- Easy integration with speech-to-text and text-to-speech pipelines  
+- Configurable system prompts and activation words
+- Lightweight CPU inference with GGUF models
+- Thread-level CPU optimization
+- Adjustable context window size
+
+## Getting started
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+uv venv -p 3.11 --seed
+uv pip install -e .
+```
+
+
+## Usage
+
+The node can be configured in your dataflow YAML file:
+
+```yaml
+
+# Using a HuggingFace model
+- id: dora-llama-cpp-python
+  build: pip install -e path/to/dora-llama-cpp-python
+  path: dora-llama-cpp-python
+  inputs:
+    text: source_node/text  # Input text to generate response for
+  outputs:
+    - text  # Generated response text
+  env:
+    MODEL_NAME_OR_PATH: "TheBloke/Llama-2-7B-Chat-GGUF"
+    MODEL_FILE_PATTERN: "*Q4_K_M.gguf"
+    SYSTEM_PROMPT: "You're a very succinct AI assistant with short answers."
+    ACTIVATION_WORDS: "what how who where you"
+    MAX_TOKENS: "512"
+    N_GPU_LAYERS: "35"     # Enable GPU acceleration
+    N_THREADS: "4"         # CPU threads
+    CONTEXT_SIZE: "4096"   # Maximum context window
+```
+
+### Configuration Options
+
+- `MODEL_NAME_OR_PATH`: Path to local model file or HuggingFace repo id (default: "TheBloke/Llama-2-7B-Chat-GGUF")
+- `MODEL_FILE_PATTERN`: Pattern to match model file when downloading from HF (default: "*Q4_K_M.gguf")
+- `SYSTEM_PROMPT`: Customize the AI assistant's personality/behavior
+- `ACTIVATION_WORDS`: Space-separated list of words that trigger model response
+- `MAX_TOKENS`: Maximum number of tokens to generate (default: 512)
+- `N_GPU_LAYERS`: Number of layers to offload to GPU (default: 0, set to 35 for GPU acceleration)
+- `N_THREADS`: Number of CPU threads to use (default: 4)
+- `CONTEXT_SIZE`: Maximum context window size (default: 4096)
+
+## Example: Speech Assistant Pipeline
+
+This example shows how to create a conversational AI pipeline that:
+1. Captures audio from microphone
+2. Converts speech to text
+3. Generates AI responses
+4. Converts responses back to speech
+
+```yaml
+nodes:
+  - id: dora-microphone
+    build: pip install dora-microphone
+    path: dora-microphone
+    inputs:
+      tick: dora/timer/millis/2000
+    outputs:
+      - audio
+
+  - id: dora-vad
+    build: pip install dora-vad
+    path: dora-vad
+    inputs:
+      audio: dora-microphone/audio
+    outputs:
+      - audio
+      - timestamp_start
+
+  - id: dora-whisper
+    build: pip install dora-distil-whisper
+    path: dora-distil-whisper
+    inputs:
+      input: dora-vad/audio
+    outputs:
+      - text
+
+  - id: dora-llama-cpp-python
+    build: pip install -e .
+    path: dora-llama-cpp-python
+    inputs:
+      text: dora-whisper/text
+    outputs:
+      - text
+    env:
+      MODEL_NAME: "TheBloke/Llama-2-7B-Chat-GGUF"
+      MODEL_FILE_PATTERN: "*Q4_K_M.gguf"
+      SYSTEM_PROMPT: "You're a helpful assistant."
+      ACTIVATION_WORDS: "hey help what how"
+      MAX_TOKENS: "512"
+      N_GPU_LAYERS: "35"
+      N_THREADS: "4"
+      CONTEXT_SIZE: "4096"
+
+  - id: dora-tts
+    build: pip install dora-kokoro-tts
+    path: dora-kokoro-tts
+    inputs:
+      text: dora-llama-cpp-python/text
+    outputs:
+      - audio
+```
+
+### Running the Example
+
+```bash
+dora build example.yml
+dora run example.yml
+```
+
