What are the minimum system requirements for running a GenLayer node?

You need an x86_64 Linux server with at least 16GB RAM (32GB recommended), 8 CPU cores, and a 128GB SSD. ARM64 architecture is currently not supported.

Which LLM providers can I use with GenLayer?

The skill supports multiple providers including Heurist, Comput3, io.net, LibertAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini.

Does this skill help with node updates?

Yes, it includes a specific 'Zero-Downtime' update procedure designed to switch versions in 10-15 seconds, preventing the loss of validation rewards.

How much stake is required to become a validator?

A new validator typically requires 42,000+ GEN tokens for self-staking, which the setup wizard helps facilitate.

Cloud Infrastructure

Simplifies the deployment and management of GenLayer validator nodes on Linux through an automated, step-by-step interactive wizard.

The GenLayer Node skill streamlines the complex process of installing, configuring, and upgrading GenLayer validator nodes. It provides a robust workflow that covers everything from system prerequisite verification and hardware checks to wallet staking and LLM provider integration. Whether you are deploying on a local machine or a remote cloud instance (AWS, GCP, Azure), the skill automates directory management, symlink creation, and environment configuration. It is particularly valuable for its built-in zero-downtime update procedure, ensuring validators maintain high uptime and avoid slashing penalties during software transitions.
