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.

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
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.
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.

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.

Self-Scaling LLM Infrastructure Powered by Rancher by ademicev0
Self-Scaling LLM Infrastructure Powered by Rancher
Description
The Problem
Running LLMs can get expensive and complex pretty quickly.
Today there are typically two choices:
- Use cloud APIs like OpenAI or Anthropic. Easy to start with, but costs add up at scale.
- Self-host everything - set up Kubernetes, figure out GPU scheduling, handle scaling, manage model serving... it's a lot of work.
What if there was a middle ground?
What if infrastructure scaled itself instead of making you scale it?
Can we use existing Rancher capabilities like CAPI, autoscaling, and GitOps to make this simpler instead of building everything from scratch?
Project Repository: github.com/alexander-demicev/llmserverless
What This Project Does
A key feature is hybrid deployment: requests can be routed based on complexity or privacy needs. Simple or low-sensitivity queries can use public APIs (like OpenAI), while complex or private requests are handled in-house on local infrastructure. This flexibility allows balancing cost, privacy, and performance - using cloud for routine tasks and on-premises resources for sensitive or demanding workloads.
A complete, self-scaling LLM infrastructure that:
- Scales to zero when idle (no idle costs)
- Scales up automatically when requests come in
- Adds more nodes when needed, removes them when demand drops
- Runs on any infrastructure - laptop, bare metal, or cloud
Think of it as "serverless for LLMs" - focus on building, the infrastructure handles itself.
How It Works
A combination of open source tools working together:
Flow:
- Users interact with OpenWebUI (chat interface)
- Requests go to LiteLLM Gateway
- LiteLLM routes requests to:
- Ollama (Knative) for local model inference (auto-scales pods)
- Or cloud APIs for fallback
Update M2Crypto by mcepl
There are couple of projects I work on, which need my attention and putting them to shape:
Goal for this Hackweek
- Put M2Crypto into better shape (most issues closed, all pull requests processed)
- More fun to learn jujutsu
- Play more with Gemini, how much it help (or not).
- Perhaps, also (just slightly related), help to fix vis to work with LuaJIT, particularly to make vis-lspc working.
