an idea by nadvornik
Updated about 2 years ago. No love. 1 follower. Has no hacker: grab it!

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.

    Background Coding Agent by mmanno

    Description

    I had only bad experiences with AI one-shots. However, monitoring agent work closely and interfering often did result in productivity gains.

    Now, other companies are using agents in pipelines. That makes sense to me, just like CI, we want to offload work to pipelines: Our engineering teams are consistently slowed down by "toil": low-impact, repetitive maintenance tasks. A simple linter rule change, a dependency bump, rebasing patch-sets on top of newer releases or API deprecation requires dozens of manual PRs, draining time from feature development.

    So far we have been writing deterministic, script-based automation for these tasks. And it turns out to be a common trap. These scripts are brittle, complex, and become a massive maintenance burden themselves.

    Can we make prompts and workflows smart enough to succeed at background coding?

    Goals

    We will build a platform that allows engineers to execute complex code transformations using prompts.

    By automating this toil, we accelerate large-scale migrations and allow teams to focus on high-value work.

    Our platform will consist of three main components:

    • "Change" Definition: Engineers will define a transformation as a simple, declarative manifest:
      • The target repositories.
      • A wrapper to run a "coding agent", e.g., "gemini-cli".
      • The task as a natural language prompt.
    • "Change" Management Service: A central service that orchestrates the jobs. It will receive Change definitions and be responsible for the job lifecycle.
    • Execution Runners: We could use existing sandboxed CI runners (like GitHub/GitLab runners) to execute each job or spawn a container.

    MVP

    • Define the Change manifest format.
    • Build the core Management Service that can accept and queue a Change.
    • Connect management service and runners, dynamically dispatch jobs to runners.
    • Create a basic runner script that can run a hard-coded prompt against a test repo and open a PR.

    Stretch Goals:

    • Multi-layered approach, Workflow Agents trigger Coding Agents:
      1. Workflow Agent: Gather information about the task interactively from the user.
      2. Coding Agent: Once the interactive agent has refined the task into a clear prompt, it hands this prompt off to the "coding agent." This background agent is responsible for executing the task and producing the actual pull request.
    • Use MCP:
      1. Workflow Agent gathers context information from Slack, Github, etc.
      2. Workflow Agent triggers a Coding Agent.
    • Create a "Standard Task" library with reliable prompts.
      1. Rebasing rancher-monitoring to a new version of kube-prom-stack
      2. Update charts to use new images
      3. Apply changes to comply with a new linter
      4. Bump complex Go dependencies, like k8s modules
      5. Backport pull requests to other branches
    • Add “review agents” that review the generated PR.

    MCP Trace Suite by r1chard-lyu

    Description

    This project plans to create an MCP Trace Suite, a system that consolidates commonly used Linux debugging tools such as bpftrace, perf, and ftrace.

    The suite is implemented as an MCP Server. This architecture allows an AI agent to leverage the server to diagnose Linux issues and perform targeted system debugging by remotely executing and retrieving tracing data from these powerful tools.

    • Repo: https://github.com/r1chard-lyu/systracesuite
    • Demo: Slides

    Goals

    1. Build an MCP Server that can integrate various Linux debugging and tracing tools, including bpftrace, perf, ftrace, strace, and others, with support for future expansion of additional tools.

    2. Perform testing by intentionally creating bugs or issues that impact system performance, allowing an AI agent to analyze the root cause and identify the underlying problem.

    I would like to contribute to mcp-server-uyuni, the MCP server for Uyuni / Multi-Linux Manager) exposing additional features as tools. There is lots of relevant features to be found throughout the API, for example:

    • System operations and infos
    • System groups
    • Maintenance windows
    • Ansible
    • Reporting
    • ...

    At the end of the week I managed to enable basic system group operations:

    • List all system groups visible to the user
    • Create new system groups
    • List systems assigned to a group
    • Add and remove systems from groups

    Goals

    • Set up test environment locally with the MCP server and client + a recent MLM server [DONE]

    Ansible to Salt integration by vizhestkov

    Description

    We already have initial integration of Ansible in Salt with the possibility to run playbooks from the salt-master on the salt-minion used as an Ansible Control node.

    In this project I want to check if it possible to make Ansible working on the transport of Salt. Basically run playbooks with Ansible through existing established Salt (ZeroMQ) transport and not using ssh at all.

    It could be a good solution for the end users to reuse Ansible playbooks or run Ansible modules they got used to with no effort of complex configuration with existing Salt (or Uyuni/SUSE Multi Linux Manager) infrastructure.

    Goals

    • [v] Prepare the testing environment with Salt and Ansible installed
    • [v] Discover Ansible codebase to figure out possible ways of integration
    • [v] Create Salt/Uyuni inventory module
    • [v] Make basic modules to work with no using separate ssh connection, but reusing existing Salt connection
    • [v] Test some most basic playbooks

    Uyuni read-only replica by cbosdonnat

    Description

    For now, there is no possible HA setup for Uyuni. The idea is to explore setting up a read-only shadow instance of an Uyuni and make it as useful as possible.

    Possible things to look at:

    • live sync of the database, probably using the WAL. Some of the tables may have to be skipped or some features disabled on the RO instance (taskomatic, PXT sessions…)
    • Can we use a load balancer that routes read-only queries to either instance and the other to the RW one? For example, packages or PXE data can be served by both, the API GET requests too. The rest would be RW.

    Goals

    • Prepare a document explaining how to do it.
    • PR with the needed code changes to support it

    Flaky Tests AI Finder for Uyuni and MLM Test Suites by oscar-barrios

    Description

    Our current Grafana dashboards provide a great overview of test suite health, including a panel for "Top failed tests." However, identifying which of these failures are due to legitimate bugs versus intermittent "flaky tests" is a manual, time-consuming process. These flaky tests erode trust in our test suites and slow down development.

    This project aims to build a simple but powerful Python script that automates flaky test detection. The script will directly query our Prometheus instance for the historical data of each failed test, using the jenkins_build_test_case_failure_age metric. It will then format this data and send it to the Gemini API with a carefully crafted prompt, asking it to identify which tests show a flaky pattern.

    The final output will be a clean JSON list of the most probable flaky tests, which can then be used to populate a new "Top Flaky Tests" panel in our existing Grafana test suite dashboard.

    Goals

    By the end of Hack Week, we aim to have a single, working Python script that:

    1. Connects to Prometheus and executes a query to fetch detailed test failure history.
    2. Processes the raw data into a format suitable for the Gemini API.
    3. Successfully calls the Gemini API with the data and a clear prompt.
    4. Parses the AI's response to extract a simple list of flaky tests.
    5. Saves the list to a JSON file that can be displayed in Grafana.
    6. New panel in our Dashboard listing the Flaky tests

      • Use git update to trigger helmchart app update
    • Recurrent state applying configuration channel?

    step 3: Multi-node cluster

    Goal: Use SUC to update a multi-node cluster.

    • Create a multi-node cluster
    • Deploy application
      • call the helm update/install only on control plane?
    • Install App updates through helm update
    • Prepare a SUC for OS update (k3s also? How?)
      • https://github.com/rancher/system-upgrade-controller
      • https://documentation.suse.com/cloudnative/k3s/latest/en/upgrades/automated.html
