Create language model based on Uyuni documentation
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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    Enhance setup wizard for Uyuni by PSuarezHernandez

    Description

    This project wants to enhance the intial setup on Uyuni after its installation, so it's easier for a user to start using with it.

    Uyuni currently uses "uyuni-tools" (mgradm) as the installation entrypoint, to trigger the installation of Uyuni in the given host, but does not really perform an initial setup, for instance:

    • user creation
    • adding products / channels
    • generating bootstrap repos
    • create activation keys
    • ...

    Goals

    • Provide initial setup wizard as part of mgradm uyuni installation

    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 Saltboot rework by oholecek

    Description

    When Uyuni switched over to the containerized proxies we had to abandon salt based saltboot infrastructure we had before. Uyuni already had integration with a Cobbler provisioning server and saltboot infra was re-implemented on top of this Cobbler integration.

    What was not obvious from the start was that Cobbler, having all it's features, woefully slow when dealing with saltboot size environments. We did some improvements in performance, introduced transactions, and generally tried to make this setup usable. However the underlying slowness remained.

    Goals

    This project is not something trying to invent new things, it is just finally implementing saltboot infrastructure directly with the Uyuni server core.

    Instead of generating grub and pxelinux configurations by Cobbler for all thousands of systems and branches, we will provide a GET access point to retrieve grub or pxelinux file during the boot:

    /saltboot/group/grub/$fqdn and similar for systems /saltboot/system/grub/$mac

    Next we adapt our tftpd translator to query these points when asked for default or mac based config.

    Lastly similar thing needs to be done on our apache server when HTTP UEFI boot is used.
