@copilot ok our main goal is to use neurolink sdk and its capabilities to orchestrate or perform the tools and agent and get the summarization or vulnerabilites and nodes and zombie processes and over the top resources assigned, |
What's Done (Ready to Use): ✅ 4 MCP Tools fully implemented:
✅ Neurolink Integration Ready:
✅ K8s Deployment manifests with RBAC for in-cluster deployment What's Doable Now:
What Needs Neurolink SDK to Complete:
The agent is ready for Neurolink integration - once you pass a Neurolink instance to |
|
@copilot ok what is the diff between agent via neurolink and mcp and tools? |
Tools are individual functions that do one specific thing:
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard interface that wraps tools so LLMs can discover and invoke them. Our Neurolink is the orchestration layer that:
Agent = Neurolink + MCP Server + Tools working together. The LLM decides which tools to call based on user intent. Right now we have: MCP Server + Tools (ready) |

This K8s Ops Agent aligns perfectly with the hackathon goals, especially with How this fits the hackathon:
Immediate value for SRE/on-call:
Integration with Monish's Infra Alert Explainer: Ready to demo or integrate with other hackathon projects. Just need to wire up with NeuroLink SDK. |

@copilot this is what I got from other agents, 2. Implements an agent loopconst answer = await neurolink.generate({
input: { text: "Find all zombie workloads in production and summarize impact." },
tools: true,
enableEvaluation: true,
enableReasoning: true, // VERY IMPORTANT
});3. Supports NL queries
4. Uses Neurolink features
5. Produces a FINAL HUMAN-FRIENDLY answernot JSON dumps 6. Optionally adds orchestration
🧠 What a complete winning submission looks like✔️ MCP server(You already built this. Good job.) ✔️ Agent using Neurolink(Runs in SDK, calls tools automatically.) ✔️ Natural language → tool → reasoning → final answer(Not present yet.) ✔️ Multi-step pipeline(e.g., snapshot + cost + zombie → summary report.) ✔️ Demo or CLI script(e.g., ✔️ Documentation(You have tons. Good.) |

Yes, it's complete. Here's how to use it: 1. Run locally (kubeconfig): cd k8s-ops-agent
npm install && npm run build
npm run dev:agent:full # Full cluster report2. Programmatic usage: import { K8sOpsAgent } from '@cmd-err/k8s-ops-agent';
const agent = new K8sOpsAgent({ k8sMode: 'kubeconfig' });
const result = await agent.run({ intent: 'full-cluster-report' });
console.log(result.summary.headline);
// "⚠️ 3 high-priority issues found"
console.log(result.summary.estimatedMonthlySavings);
// "$150"3. With Neurolink (natural language): import { K8sOpsNeurolinkAgent } from '@cmd-err/k8s-ops-agent';
const agent = new K8sOpsNeurolinkAgent({
k8sMode: 'kubeconfig',
provider: neurolinkProvider // optional LLM
});
const result = await agent.query("What's wasting money in my cluster?");4. As MCP server (for external integration): npm run start:mcp # Starts stdio MCP server5. Deploy to K8s: kubectl apply -f k8s-ops-agent/k8s/The agent outputs: health score, top priorities, savings estimates, zombie workloads, and Istio issues. |

@copilot ok we are facing some errors in our neurolink part go through neurolink repo correctly and examples to properly integrate and also fix the errors in examples folder

Updated Usage: import { NeuroLink } from "@juspay/neurolink";
import { registerK8sOpsWithNeurolink } from "@cmd-err/k8s-ops-agent";
const neurolink = new NeuroLink({ enableOrchestration: true });
await registerK8sOpsWithNeurolink(neurolink as unknown as NeuroLinkInstance); |

... Fixed in commit What changed:
How it works now: const neurolink = new NeuroLink({ enableOrchestration: true });
await registerK8sOpsWithNeurolink(neurolink);
// LLM orchestrates - decides which tools to call
const result = await neurolink.generate({
input: { text: "What's wasting money in my cluster?" },

});

@copilot can you explain me step by step what happens when we run with neurolink to our mcp and till analysis step by step explain me |
Here's the step-by-step flow when running with Neurolink: Step 1: Initialize Neurolink const neurolink = new NeuroLink({ enableOrchestration: true });Creates Neurolink instance with LLM provider auto-detected from env vars (GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY or OPENAI_API_KEY). Step 2: Register K8s Tools await registerK8sOpsWithNeurolink(neurolink);Calls Step 3: User Query await neurolink.generate({
input: { text: "What's wasting money?" },
systemPrompt: "You have access to K8s tools..."
});Step 4: LLM Reasoning Step 5: Tool Execution (MCP) Step 6: Second Tool Call Step 7: LLM Summary Step 8: Return to User |

@copilot lets plan on how can we now think and right now we can't questio it ƒurther lets plan on how we can think of best agent we are experts in agentic workflow |
Here's a plan for building a dynamic, context-aware agentic workflow system: Problem: Each Architecture for Dynamic Workflows (n8n-like): Workflow Schema (JSON/YAML): workflows:
full-cluster-analysis:
trigger: manual | cron("0 9 * * *") | webhook
steps:
- id: snapshot
tool: get-cluster-snapshot
inputs: { includeIstio: true }
- id: analyze
parallel:
- tool: analyze-cost-optimization
- tool: detect-zombie-workloads
inputs: { snapshot: "{{snapshot.result}}" }
- id: decide
condition: "{{analyze.zombies.length > 0}}"
then: investigate-deeper
else: summarize
- id: summarize
llm: "Summarize findings: {{analyze}}"Key Components to Build:
Follow-up Questions:
Should I start implementing the SessionManager and basic workflow schema? |
|
@copilot currently workflow only supports for writing the tool name, |
... Here's how we can make workflows support custom tools and JS scripts: Extended Step Types: steps:
# 1. Built-in tool (current)
- id: snapshot
tool: get-cluster-snapshot
# 2. Custom inline JS function
- id: transform
type: script
code: |
const pods = context.snapshot.pods;
return pods.filter(p => p.restarts > 5);
# 3. External JS module
- id: custom
type: module
path: "./custom-tools/my-analyzer.js"
function: analyze
# 4. Dynamic tool from registry
- id: dynamic
type: dynamic-tool
toolId: "{{workflow.input.selectedTool}}"Implementation approach:
Tool Registry Pattern: const registry = new ToolRegistry();
registry.register("my-custom-tool", {
schema: z.object({ input: z.string() }),
execute: async (params, ctx) => { ... }
});
workflow.useRegistry(registry);This allows users to define custom tools in their own codebase and inject them into workflows. Should I implement this? |
