Docs Navigator MCP: SUSE Edition by mackenzie.techdocs

Description

Docs Navigator MCP: SUSE Edition is an AI-powered documentation navigator that makes finding information across SUSE, Rancher, K3s, and RKE2 documentation effortless. Built as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, it enables semantic search, intelligent Q&A, and documentation summarization using 100% open-source AI models (no API keys required!). The project also allows you to bring your own keys from Anthropic and Open AI for parallel processing.

Goals

• [ X ] Build functional MCP server with documentation tools
• [ X ] Implement semantic search with vector embeddings
• [ X ] Create user-friendly web interface
• [ X ] Optimize indexing performance (parallel processing)
• [ X ] Add SUSE branding and polish UX
• [ X ] Stretch Goal: Add more documentation sources
• [ X ] Stretch Goal: Implement document change detection for auto-updates

Coming Soon!

• Community Feedback: Test with real users and gather improvement suggestions

Exploring Modern AI Trends and Kubernetes-Based AI Infrastructure by jluo

Description

Build a solid understanding of the current landscape of Artificial Intelligence and how modern cloud-native technologies—especially Kubernetes—support AI workloads.

Goals

Use Gemini Learning Mode to guide the exploration, surface relevant concepts, and structure the learning journey:

• Gain insight into the latest AI trends, tools, and architectural concepts.
• Understand how Kubernetes and related cloud-native technologies are used in the AI ecosystem (model training, deployment, orchestration, MLOps).

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.

Local AI assistant with optional integrations and mobile companion by livdywan

Description

Setup a local AI assistant for research, brainstorming and proof reading. Look into SurfSense, Open WebUI and possibly alternatives. Explore integration with services like openQA. There should be no cloud dependencies. Mobile phone support or an additional companion app would be a bonus. The goal is not to develop everything from scratch.

User Story

• Allison Average wants a one-click local AI assistent on their openSUSE laptop.
• Ash Awesome wants AI on their phone without an expensive subscription.

Goals

• Evaluate a local SurfSense setup for day to day productivity
• Test opencode for vibe coding and tool calling

Timeline

Day 1

• Took a look at SurfSense and started setting up a local instance.
• Unfortunately the container setup did not work well. Tho this was a great opportunity to learn some new podman commands and refresh my memory on how to recover a corrupted btrfs filesystem.

Day 2

• Due to its sheer size and complexity SurfSense seems to have triggered btrfs fragmentation. Naturally this was not visible in any podman-related errors or in the journal. So this took up much of my second day.

Day 3

• Trying out opencode with Qwen3-Coder and Qwen2.5-Coder.

Day 4

• Context size is a thing, and models are not equally usable for vibe coding.
• Through arduous browsing for ollama models I did find some like myaniu/qwen2.5-1m:7b with 1m but even then it is not obvious if they are meant for tool calls.

Day 5

• Whilst trying to make opencode usable I discovered ramalama which worked instantly and very well.

Outcomes

surfsense

I could not easily set this up completely. Maybe in part due to my filesystem issues. Was expecting this to be less of an effort.

opencode

Installing opencode and ollama in my distrobox container along with the following configs worked for me.

When preparing a new project from scratch it is a good idea to start out with a template.

opencode.json

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.

Create a Cloud-Native policy engine with notifying capabilities to optimize resource usage by gbazzotti

Description

The goal of this project is to begin the initial phase of development of an all-in-one Cloud-Native Policy Engine that notifies resource owners when their resources infringe predetermined policies. This was inspired by a current issue in the CES-SRE Team where other solutions seemed to not exactly correspond to the needs of the specific workloads running on the Public Cloud Team space.

The initial architecture can be checked out on the Repository listed under Resources.

Among the features that will differ this project from other monitoring/notification systems:

• Pre-defined sensible policies written at the software-level, avoiding a learning curve by requiring users to write their own policies
• All-in-one functionality: logging, mailing and all other actions are not required to install any additional plugins/packages
• Easy account management, being able to parse all required configuration by a single JSON file
• Eliminate integrations by not requiring metrics to go through a data-agreggator

Goals

• Create a minimal working prototype following the workflow specified on the documentation
• Provide instructions on installation/usage
• Work on email notifying capabilities

• GitHub Repository
