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.

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

There is a prototype implementation here. This currently sort of works with JIRA only.
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:
- Connects to Prometheus and executes a query to fetch detailed test failure history.
- Processes the raw data into a format suitable for the Gemini API.
- Successfully calls the Gemini API with the data and a clear prompt.
- Parses the AI's response to extract a simple list of flaky tests.
- Saves the list to a JSON file that can be displayed in Grafana.
- New panel in our Dashboard listing the Flaky tests
