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:
  • 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

Looking for hackers with the skills:

      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.

    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.

    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.

    Uyuni Health-check Grafana AI Troubleshooter by ygutierrez

    Description

    This project explores the feasibility of using the open-source Grafana LLM plugin to enhance the Uyuni Health-check tool with LLM capabilities. The idea is to integrate a chat-based "AI Troubleshooter" directly into existing dashboards, allowing users to ask natural-language questions about errors, anomalies, or performance issues.

    Goals

    • Investigate if and how the grafana-llm-app plug-in can be used within the Uyuni Health-check tool.
    • Investigate if this plug-in can be used to query LLMs for troubleshooting scenarios.
    • Evaluate support for local LLMs and external APIs through the plugin.
    • Evaluate if and how the Uyuni MCP server could be integrated as another source of information.
