+# NSSM 자동 시작 설정 (SP-9)
+
+Windows AI 머신 부팅 시 ai_trade(트레이딩) + WSL2 Docker(render workers + task-watcher) 자동 시작.
+
+## 1. NSSM 다운로드
+
+https://nssm.cc/download → nssm-2.24.zip → `C:\nssm\nssm.exe` 배치 (또는 PATH 등록).
+
+## 2. ai_trade (Native Python, HIGH priority)
+
+⚠️ spec의 signal_v2는 ai_trade로 rename됨. 경로/포트 확인.
+
+```powershell
+# 관리자 PowerShell
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe install ai_trade "C:\Python312\python.exe" "-m uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8001"
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set ai_trade AppDirectory "C:\Users\jaeoh\Desktop\workspace\web-ai\ai_trade"
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set ai_trade Priority HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set ai_trade Start SERVICE_AUTO_START
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set ai_trade AppStdout "C:\Users\jaeoh\nssm-logs\ai_trade.log"
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set ai_trade AppStderr "C:\Users\jaeoh\nssm-logs\ai_trade.log"
+```
+
+(ai_trade의 실제 진입점이 main:app + port 8001인지 확인. 다르면 조정.)
+
+## 3. WSL2 Docker (NORMAL priority — render workers + task-watcher)
+
+```powershell
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe install wsl_docker "C:\Windows\System32\wsl.exe" "-d Ubuntu-24.04 -- sh -c 'sudo service docker start && cd /workspace/web-ai/services && docker compose up -d'"
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set wsl_docker Priority NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set wsl_docker Start SERVICE_AUTO_START
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe set wsl_docker AppStdout "C:\Users\jaeoh\nssm-logs\wsl_docker.log"
+```
+
+⚠️ 변경점: Ubuntu-22.04 → **Ubuntu-24.04**, web-ai-services → **web-ai/services**. WSL 경로는 박재오 WSL 마운트 기준 (`/workspace`가 web-ai에 매핑되어 있으면 그대로, 아니면 `/mnt/c/Users/jaeoh/Desktop/workspace/web-ai/services`).
+
+`sudo service docker start`가 비밀번호 요구하면 sudoers에 NOPASSWD 추가:
+```bash
+# WSL2 안
+echo "$USER ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/service docker start" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/docker-start
+```
+
+## 4. 서비스 시작 + 확인
+
+```powershell
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe start ai_trade
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe start wsl_docker
+
+# 상태 확인
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe status ai_trade
+C:\nssm\nssm.exe status wsl_docker
+sc query ai_trade
+```
+
+## 5. 검증
+
+```powershell
+# ai_trade
+curl http://localhost:8001/health   # 또는 ai_trade의 실제 health endpoint
+
+# WSL2 docker 컨테이너 (재부팅 후 자동 시작 확인)
+wsl -d Ubuntu-24.04 -- docker ps
+# insta-render, music-render, video-render, task-watcher 4개 Up 확인
+```
+
+## 6. 재부팅 테스트
+
+Windows 재부팅 → 로그인 → 수동 조작 없이:
+- ai_trade 서비스 자동 시작 (HIGH priority)
+- WSL2 + Docker + 4 컨테이너 자동 시작 (NORMAL priority)
+- task-watcher가 trading window에 queue:paused 토글 시작
+
+## task-watcher 동작 확인
+
+```bash
+# WSL2
+docker logs task-watcher --tail 20
+# 기대: "task-watcher started" + mode 전환 로그 (trading/free)
+
+# Redis 큐 상태 (NAS 또는 LAN)
+docker exec redis redis-cli GET queue:paused
+# 트레이딩 시간대(평일 07:00-16:30): "1"
+# 그 외: (nil)
+```
