ghostwrAIter - a local AI assisted tool for helping with support cases
Description
This project is meant to fight the loneliness of the support team members, providing them an AI assistant (hopefully) capable of scraping supportconfigs in a RAG fashion, trying to answer specific questions.
Goals
- Setup an Ollama backend, spinning one (or more??) code-focused LLMs selected by license, performance and quality of the results between:
- deepseek-coder-v2
- dolphin-mistral
- starcoder2
- (...others??)
- Setup a Web UI for it, choosing an easily extensible and customizable option between:
- Extend the solution in order to be able to:
- Add ZIU/Concord shared folders to its RAG context
- Add BZ cases, splitted in comments to its RAG context
- A plus would be to login using the IDP portal to ghostwrAIter itself and use the same credentials to query BZ
- Add specific packages picking them from IBS repos
- A plus would be to login using the IDP portal to ghostwrAIter itself and use the same credentials to query IBS
- A plus would be to desume the packages of interest and the right channel and version to be picked from the added BZ cases

The project soon moved to CLI, as the skills for integrating a WEB-UI are not my cup of tea :-/
Its description and source code can be found at ghostwrAIter
I tested the listed LLMs and also the following embedding models: mxbai-embed-large, nomic-embed-text, all-minilm.
My impression is that the current state of the art for the really open-source llms and embedding models is not still mature and ready for production grade and that a big gap exists with the most well-known commercial product.
Hopefully will run a refresh for the next hackweek.

Bugzilla goes AI - Phase 1 by nwalter
Description
This project, Bugzilla goes AI, aims to boost developer productivity by creating an autonomous AI bug agent during Hackweek. The primary goal is to reduce the time employees spend triaging bugs by integrating Ollama to summarize issues, recommend next steps, and push focused daily reports to a Web Interface.
Goals
To reduce employee time spent on Bugzilla by implementing an AI tool that triages and summarizes bug reports, providing actionable recommendations to the team via Web Interface.

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
- Learn something about RAG, LLM, AI.
- Find out if everything works offline as intended.
- 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.
- 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.

Backporting patches using LLM by jankara
Description
Backporting Linux kernel fixes (either for CVE issues or as part of general git-fixes workflow) is boring and mostly mechanical work (dealing with changes in context, renamed variables, new helper functions etc.). The idea of this project is to explore usage of LLM for backporting Linux kernel commits to SUSE kernels using LLM.
Goals
- Create safe environment allowing LLM to run and backport patches without exposing the whole filesystem to it (for privacy and security reasons).
- Write prompt that will guide LLM through the backporting process. Fine tune it based on experimental results.
- Explore success rate of LLMs when backporting various patches.
Resources
- Docker
- Gemini CLI
Repository
Current version of the container with some instructions for use are at: https://gitlab.suse.de/jankara/gemini-cli-backporter
Song Search with CLAP by gcolangiuli
Description
Contrastive Language-Audio Pretraining (CLAP) is an open-source library that enables the training of a neural network on both Audio and Text descriptions, making it possible to search for Audio using a Text input. Several pre-trained models for song search are already available on huggingface
Goals
Evaluate how CLAP can be used for song searching and determine which types of queries yield the best results by developing a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) in Python. Based on the results of this MVP, future steps could include:
- Music Tagging;
- Free text search;
- Integration with an LLM (for example, with MCP or the OpenAI API) for music suggestions based on your own library.
The code for this project will be entirely written using AI to better explore and demonstrate AI capabilities.
Result
In this MVP we implemented:
- Async Song Analysis with Clap model
- Free Text Search of the songs
- Similar song search based on vector representation
- Containerised version with web interface
We also documented what went well and what can be improved in the use of AI.
You can have a look at the result here:
Future implementation can be related to performance improvement and stability of the analysis.
