+# Running Omni Engineer in Daytona: A Step-by-Step Guide for AI Engineers
+
+In this guide, we'll demonstrate how to run Omni Engineer inside Daytona and effectively use it. We'll also walk through creating a `devcontainer.json` file, contributing it to existing repositories, and making a pull request to the Groq repository. By the end, you'll know how to set up a development environment that streamlines your AI engineering workflows.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Basic understanding of Docker and VS Code.
+- Familiarity with Git and GitHub.
+- Access to the Omni Engineer and Claude Engineer repositories.
+
+## Step 1: Setting Up Your Development Environment
+
+### 1.1. Install VS Code and Docker
+
+Ensure you have [Visual Studio Code (VS Code)](https://code.visualstudio.com/) and [Docker](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop) installed on your machine. These tools are essential for creating and managing development containers.
+
+### 1.2. Install the Remote - Containers Extension
+
+Install the "Remote - Containers" extension for VS Code from the Extensions Marketplace. This will allow you to open and work inside Docker containers.
+
+## Step 2: Creating the `devcontainer.json` File
+
+### 2.1. Create a New Directory for Your Dev Container Configuration
+
+Open a terminal and navigate to the root directory of your local clone of the Omni Engineer repository:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/Doriandarko/omni-engineer.git
+cd omni-engineer
+```
+
+Create a .devcontainer directory and navigate into it:
+
+```bash
+mkdir .devcontainer
+cd .devcontainer
+```
+### 2.2. Create the devcontainer.json File
+Inside the .devcontainer directory, create a file named devcontainer.json with the following content:
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "Omni Engineer Dev Container",
+  "dockerFile": "Dockerfile",
+  "extensions": [
+    "ms-python.python",
+    "ms-vscode.cpptools",
+    "esbenp.prettier-vscode",
+    "github.copilot"
+  ],
+  "settings": {
+    "python.pythonPath": "/usr/local/bin/python"
+  },
+  "runArgs": [
+    "--gpus",
+    "all"
+  ],
+  "postCreateCommand": "pip install -r requirements.txt",
+  "remoteUser": "vscode"
+}
+```
+### 2.3. Create a Dockerfile
+In the same .devcontainer directory, create a file named Dockerfile with the following content:
+
+```bash
+# Use an official Python runtime as a parent image
+FROM python:3.9-slim
+
+# Set environment variables
+ENV PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE 1
+ENV PYTHONUNBUFFERED 1
+
+# Set the working directory
+WORKDIR /workspace
+
+# Install dependencies
+COPY requirements.txt /workspace/
+RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
+
+# Install additional system packages
+RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
+    build-essential \
+    curl \
+    git \
+    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
+
+# Copy the rest of the application code
+COPY . /workspace/
+```
+
+## Step 3: Contributing devcontainer.json to the Repositories
+
+### 3.1. Fork and Clone the Repositories
+If you haven't already, fork the [Omni Engineer repository](https://github.com/Doriandarko/omni-engineer) and [Claude Engineer repository](https://github.com/Doriandarko/claude-engineer) to your GitHub account. Clone the repositories to your local machine:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/omni-engineer.git
+cd omni-engineer
+```
+
+### 3.2. Add the .devcontainer Directory
+Copy the .devcontainer directory created earlier into the root of both repositories.
+
+### 3.3. Commit and Push Changes
+Add the changes to the staging area, commit them, and push them to your forked repository:
+
+```bash
+git add .devcontainer
+git commit -m "Add devcontainer configuration"
+git push origin main
+```
+
+### 3.4. Create a Pull Request
+Go to your forked repository on GitHub and create a pull request (PR) from your fork's main branch to the original repository's main branch. Describe the changes and submit the PR.
+
+## Step 4: Creating a Pull Request for the Groq Repository
+
+
+### 4.1. Fork and Clone the Groq Repository
+Fork the Groq repository and clone it to your local machine:
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/groq.git
+cd groq
+```
+
+### 4.2. Add the .devcontainer Directory
+Copy the .devcontainer directory from your Omni Engineer setup into this repository.
+
+### 4.3. Commit and Push Changes
+
+Add, commit, and push the changes:
+```bash
+git add .devcontainer
+git commit -m "Add devcontainer configuration"
+git push origin main
+
+```
+### 4.4. Create a Pull Request
+Go to your forked Groq repository on GitHub and create a PR to merge the changes into the original repository.
+
+## Step 5: Using Omni Engineer Inside Daytona
+### 5.1. Open the Dev Container
+In VS Code, open the Omni Engineer repository. Click on the green "><" icon in the bottom-left corner of the window and select "Reopen in Container."
+
+### 5.2. Access and Use Omni Engineer
+Once inside the dev container, you can access and use Omni Engineer. For example, if you're working on an AI model, you might want to run the following command to start the Omni Engineer service:
+
+```bash
+omni-engineer --start
+```
+
+You can now develop and test your AI models within this environment.
+
+## Conclusion
+You've successfully set up a development container for Omni Engineer, contributed it to the repositories, and created a pull request for the Groq repository. With these steps, you can streamline your AI engineering workflows and ensure a consistent development environment.
