Project Description

The goal is to have a language model, that is able to answer technical questions on Uyuni. Uyuni documentation is too large for in-context processing, so finetuning is the way to go.

Goal for this Hackweek

Finetune a model based on llama-2-7b.

    issuefs: FUSE filesystem representing issues (e.g. JIRA) for the use with AI agents code-assistants by llansky3

    Description

    Creating a FUSE filesystem (issuefs) that mounts issues from various ticketing systems (Github, Jira, Bugzilla, Redmine) as files to your local file system.

    And why this is good idea?

    • User can use favorite command line tools to view and search the tickets from various sources
    • User can use AI agents capabilities from your favorite IDE or cli to ask question about the issues, project or functionality while providing relevant tickets as context without extra work.
    • User can use it during development of the new features when you let the AI agent to jump start the solution. The issuefs will give the AI agent the context (AI agents just read few more files) about the bug or requested features. No need for copying and pasting issues to user prompt or by using extra MCP tools to access the issues. These you can still do but this approach is on purpose different.

    Goals

    1. Add Github issue support
    2. Proof the concept/approach by apply the approach on itself using Github issues for tracking and development of new features
    3. Add support for Bugzilla and Redmine using this approach in the process of doing it. Record a video of it.
    4. Clean-up and test the implementation and create some documentation
    5. Create a blog post about this approach

    There is a prototype implementation here. This currently sort of works with JIRA only.


    AI-Powered Unit Test Automation for Agama by joseivanlopez

    The Agama project is a multi-language Linux installer that leverages the distinct strengths of several key technologies:

    • Rust: Used for the back-end services and the core HTTP API, providing performance and safety.
    • TypeScript (React/PatternFly): Powers the modern web user interface (UI), ensuring a consistent and responsive user experience.
    • Ruby: Integrates existing, robust YaST libraries (e.g., yast-storage-ng) to reuse established functionality.

    The Problem: Testing Overhead

    Developing and maintaining code across these three languages requires a significant, tedious effort in writing, reviewing, and updating unit tests for each component. This high cost of testing is a drain on developer resources and can slow down the project's evolution.

    The Solution: AI-Driven Automation

    This project aims to eliminate the manual overhead of unit testing by exploring and integrating AI-driven code generation tools. We will investigate how AI can:

    1. Automatically generate new unit tests as code is developed.
    2. Intelligently correct and update existing unit tests when the application code changes.

    By automating this crucial but monotonous task, we can free developers to focus on feature implementation and significantly improve the speed and maintainability of the Agama codebase.

    Goals

    • Proof of Concept: Successfully integrate and demonstrate an authorized AI tool (e.g., gemini-cli) to automatically generate unit tests.
    • Workflow Integration: Define and document a new unit test automation workflow that seamlessly integrates the selected AI tool into the existing Agama development pipeline.
    • Knowledge Sharing: Establish a set of best practices for using AI in code generation, sharing the learned expertise with the broader team.

    Contribution & Resources

    We are seeking contributors interested in AI-powered development and improving developer efficiency. Whether you have previous experience with code generation tools or are eager to learn, your participation is highly valuable.

    If you want to dive deep into AI for software quality, please reach out and join the effort!

    • Authorized AI Tools: Tools supported by SUSE (e.g., gemini-cli)
    • Focus Areas: Rust, TypeScript, and Ruby components within the Agama project.

    SUSE Edge Image Builder MCP by eminguez

    Description

    Based on my other hackweek project, SUSE Edge Image Builder's Json Schema I would like to build also a MCP to be able to generate EIB config files the AI way.

    Realistically I don't think I'll be able to have something consumable at the end of this hackweek but at least I would like to start exploring MCPs, the difference between an API and MCP, etc.

    Goals

    • Familiarize myself with MCPs
    • Unrealistic: Have an MCP that can generate an EIB config file

    Resources

    Result

    https://github.com/e-minguez/eib-mcp

    I've extensively used antigravity and its agent mode to code this. This heavily uses https://hackweek.opensuse.org/25/projects/suse-edge-image-builder-json-schema for the MCP to be built.

    I've ended up learning a lot of things about "prompting", json schemas in general, some golang, MCPs and AI in general :)

    Example:

    Generate an Edge Image Builder configuration for an ISO image based on slmicro-6.2.iso, targeting x86_64 architecture. The output name should be 'my-edge-image' and it should install to /dev/sda. It should deploy a 3 nodes kubernetes cluster with nodes names "node1", "node2" and "node3" as: * hostname: node1, IP: 1.1.1.1, role: initializer * hostname: node2, IP: 1.1.1.2, role: agent * hostname: node3, IP: 1.1.1.3, role: agent The kubernetes version should be k3s 1.33.4-k3s1 and it should deploy a cert-manager helm chart (the latest one available according to https://cert-manager.io/docs/installation/helm/). It should create a user called "suse" with password "suse" and set ntp to "foo.ntp.org". The VIP address for the API should be 1.2.3.4

    Generates:

    ``` apiVersion: "1.0" image: arch: x86_64 baseImage: slmicro-6.2.iso imageType: iso outputImageName: my-edge-image kubernetes: helm: charts: - name: cert-manager repositoryName: jetstack


    Extended private brain - RAG my own scripts and data into offline LLM AI by tjyrinki_suse

    Description

    For purely studying purposes, I'd like to find out if I could teach an LLM some of my own accumulated knowledge, to use it as a sort of extended brain.

    I might use qwen3-coder or something similar as a starting point.

    Everything would be done 100% offline without network available to the container, since I prefer to see when network is needed, and make it so it's never needed (other than initial downloads).

    Goals

    1. Learn something about RAG, LLM, AI.
    2. Find out if everything works offline as intended.
    3. As an end result have a new way to access my own existing know-how, but so that I can query the wisdom in them.
    4. Be flexible to pivot in any direction, as long as there are new things learned.

    Resources

    To be found on the fly.

    Timeline

    Day 1 (of 4)

    • Tried out a RAG demo, expanded on feeding it my own data
    • Experimented with qwen3-coder to add a persistent chat functionality, and keeping vectors in a pickle file
    • Optimizations to keep everything within context window
    • Learn and add a bit of PyTest

    Day 2

    • More experimenting and more data
    • Study ChromaDB
    • Add a Web UI that works from another computer even though the container sees network is down

    Day 3

    • The above RAG is working well enough for demonstration purposes.
    • Pivot to trying out OpenCode, configuring local Ollama qwen3-coder there, to analyze the RAG demo.
    • Figured out how to configure Ollama template to be usable under OpenCode. OpenCode locally is super slow to just running qwen3-coder alone.

    Day 4 (final day)

    • Battle with OpenCode that was both slow and kept on piling up broken things.
    • Call it success as after all the agentic AI was working locally.
    • Clean up the mess left behind a bit.

    Kubernetes-Based ML Lifecycle Automation by lmiranda

    Description

    This project aims to build a complete end-to-end Machine Learning pipeline running entirely on Kubernetes, using Go, and containerized ML components.

    The pipeline will automate the lifecycle of a machine learning model, including:

    • Data ingestion/collection
    • Model training as a Kubernetes Job
    • Model artifact storage in an S3-compatible registry (e.g. Minio)
    • A Go-based deployment controller that automatically deploys new model versions to Kubernetes using Rancher
    • A lightweight inference service that loads and serves the latest model
    • Monitoring of model performance and service health through Prometheus/Grafana

    The outcome is a working prototype of an MLOps workflow that demonstrates how AI workloads can be trained, versioned, deployed, and monitored using the Kubernetes ecosystem.

    Goals

    By the end of Hack Week, the project should:

    1. Produce a fully functional ML pipeline running on Kubernetes with:

      • Data collection job
      • Training job container
      • Storage and versioning of trained models
      • Automated deployment of new model versions
      • Model inference API service
      • Basic monitoring dashboards
    2. Showcase a Go-based deployment automation component, which scans the model registry and automatically generates & applies Kubernetes manifests for new model versions.

    3. Enable continuous improvement by making the system modular and extensible (e.g., additional models, metrics, autoscaling, or drift detection can be added later).

    4. Prepare a short demo explaining the end-to-end process and how new models flow through the system.

    mgr-ansible-ssh - Intelligent, Lightweight CLI for Distributed Remote Execution by deve5h

    Description

    By the end of Hack Week, the target will be to deliver a minimal functional version 1 (MVP) of a custom command-line tool named mgr-ansible-ssh (a unified wrapper for BOTH ad-hoc shell & playbooks) that allows operators to:

    1. Execute arbitrary shell commands on thousand of remote machines simultaneously using Ansible Runner with artifacts saved locally.
    2. Pass runtime options such as inventory file, remote command string/ playbook execution, parallel forks, limits, dry-run mode, or no-std-ansible-output.
    3. Leverage existing SSH trust relationships without additional setup.
    4. Provide a clean, intuitive CLI interface with --help for ease of use. It should provide consistent UX & CI-friendly interface.
    5. Establish a foundation that can later be extended with advanced features such as logging, grouping, interactive shell mode, safe-command checks, and parallel execution tuning.

    The MVP should enable day-to-day operations to efficiently target thousands of machines with a single, consistent interface.

    Goals

    Primary Goals (MVP):

    Build a functional CLI tool (mgr-ansible-ssh) capable of executing shell commands on multiple remote hosts using Ansible Runner. Test the tool across a large distributed environment (1000+ machines) to validate its performance and reliability.

    Looking forward to significantly reducing the zypper deployment time across all 351 RMT VM servers in our MLM cluster by eliminating the dependency on the taskomatic service, bringing execution down to a fraction of the current duration. The tool should also support multiple runtime flags, such as:

    mgr-ansible-ssh: Remote command execution wrapper using Ansible Runner
    
    Usage: mgr-ansible-ssh [--help] [--version] [--inventory INVENTORY]
                       [--run RUN] [--playbook PLAYBOOK] [--limit LIMIT]
                       [--forks FORKS] [--dry-run] [--no-ansible-output]
    
    Required Arguments
    --inventory, -i      Path to Ansible inventory file to use
    
    Any One of the Arguments Is Required
    --run, -r            Execute the specified shell command on target hosts
    --playbook, -p       Execute the specified Ansible playbook on target hosts
    
    Optional Arguments
    --help, -h           Show the help message and exit
    --version, -v        Show the version and exit
    --limit, -l          Limit execution to specific hosts or groups
    --forks, -f          Number of parallel Ansible forks
    --dry-run            Run in Ansible check mode (requires -p or --playbook)
    --no-ansible-output  Suppress Ansible stdout output
    

    Secondary/Stretched Goals (if time permits):

    1. Add pretty output formatting (success/failure summary per host).
    2. Implement basic logging of executed commands and results.
    3. Introduce safety checks for risky commands (shutdown, rm -rf, etc.).
    4. Package the tool so it can be installed with pip or stored internally.

    Resources

    Collaboration is welcome from anyone interested in CLI tooling, automation, or distributed systems. Skills that would be particularly valuable include:

    1. Python especially around CLI dev (argparse, click, rich)

    Move Uyuni Test Framework from Selenium to Playwright + AI by oscar-barrios

    Description

    This project aims to migrate the existing Uyuni Test Framework from Selenium to Playwright. The move will improve the stability, speed, and maintainability of our end-to-end tests by leveraging Playwright's modern features. We'll be rewriting the current Selenium code in Ruby to Playwright code in TypeScript, which includes updating the test framework runner, step definitions, and configurations. This is also necessary because we're moving from Cucumber Ruby to CucumberJS.

    If you're still curious about the AI in the title, it was just a way to grab your attention. Thanks for your understanding.

    Nah, let's be honest add-emoji AI helped a lot to vibe code a good part of the Ruby methods of the Test framework, moving them to Typescript, along with the migration from Capybara to Playwright. I've been using "Cline" as plugin for WebStorm IDE, using Gemini API behind it.


    Goals

    • Migrate Core tests including Onboarding of clients
    • Improve test reliabillity: Measure and confirm a significant reduction of flakiness.
    • Implement a robust framework: Establish a well-structured and reusable Playwright test framework using the CucumberJS

    Uyuni Health-check Grafana AI Troubleshooter by ygutierrez

    Description

    This project explores the feasibility of using the open-source Grafana LLM plugin to enhance the Uyuni Health-check tool with LLM capabilities. The idea is to integrate a chat-based "AI Troubleshooter" directly into existing dashboards, allowing users to ask natural-language questions about errors, anomalies, or performance issues.

    Goals

    • Investigate if and how the grafana-llm-app plug-in can be used within the Uyuni Health-check tool.
    • Investigate if this plug-in can be used to query LLMs for troubleshooting scenarios.
    • Evaluate support for local LLMs and external APIs through the plugin.
    • Evaluate if and how the Uyuni MCP server could be integrated as another source of information.
