# Standalone Installation

## Requirements

Recommended hardware requirements most likely will be capped from beneath by the requirements of your execution and consensus clients. However, if you install the PowerAgent on a separate machine than the blockchain node, it should have at least:

* 2-Core relatively modern CPU
* 8 GB RAM
* 20 GB SSD
* Linux-based OS (Debian or Ubuntu are a good choice)

{% hint style="info" %}
The package is not configured to work on MacOS.
{% endhint %}

## Standalone installation

1. Obtain a machine satisfying the requirements.
2. Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en), npm, [Docker Engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/) and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/).
3. Start a terminal session.
4. Clone the repo into a separate folder:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/eitelvolkerts/sepolia-agent-standalone
```

5. Follow the instructions specified here: [powerpool-finance/powerpool-agent-v2-compose (github.com)](https://github.com/powerpool-finance/powerpool-agent-v2-compose) to obtain a keyfile. Here is the short version:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/powerpool-finance/powerpool-agent-v2-compose
cd powerpool-agent-v2-compose
npm i
node jsongen.js ${A} ${B}
```

where `${A}` is the private key of your worker, and `${B}` is the password you choose to encrypt the private key.

6. Move the keyfile to the `sepolia-agent-standalone/keys/` directory. Remove the placeholder key.
7. Open the file `sepolia-agent-standalone/config/main.yaml` and enter the values that are required there (see [Chain-specific configs](/powerpool-and-poweragent-network/power-agent/old-pages/installation-guide-old/chain-specific-configs.md)). Keep the quotation marks (`""`) in the address field.
8. &#x20;

```bash
cd sepolia-agent-standalone
```

9. Launch the PowerAgent node:

```bash
docker compose up -d
```

10. This will create and launch the container. In order to remove it, execute the command:

```bash
docker compose down --rmi local 
```

in `sepolia-agent-standalone/` directory.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.powerpool.finance/powerpool-and-poweragent-network/power-agent/old-pages/installation-guide-old/standalone-installation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
