 ## 🚨The Kubernetes ChatGPT Bot project will be deprecated and replaced by [HolmesGPT](https://github.com/robusta-dev/holmesgpt), our advanced Open Source DevOps assistant. With Holmes you can investigate incidents, triage issues, enrich alerts and much more. Check it out [https://github.com/robusta-dev/holmesgpt](https://github.com/robusta-dev/holmesgpt)



# Introduction



A ChatGPT[^1] bot for Kubernetes issues. Ask the AI how to solve your Prometheus alerts, get pithy responses.



No more solving alerts alone in the darkness - the internet has your back.

# How it works

Prometheus forwards alerts to the bot using a webhook receiver.



The bot sends a query to OpenAI, asking it how to fix your alerts.



You stockpile food in your pantry for the robot uprising.



The bot is implemented using [Robusta.dev](https://github.com/robusta-dev/robusta), an open source platform for responding to Kubernetes alerts. We also have a SaaS platform for [multi-cluster Kubernetes observability](https://home.robusta.dev/).



# Prerequisites

* A Slack workspace



# Setup

1. [Install Robusta with Helm](https://docs.robusta.dev/master/installation.html)

2. Load the ChatGPT playbook. Add the following to `generated_values.yaml`: 

```

playbookRepos:

  chatgpt_robusta_actions:

    url: "https://github.com/robusta-dev/kubernetes-chatgpt-bot.git"



customPlaybooks:

# Add the 'Ask ChatGPT' button to all Prometheus alerts

- triggers:

  - on_prometheus_alert: {}

  actions:

  - chat_gpt_enricher: {}

```



3. Add your [OpenAI API key](https://beta.openai.com/account/api-keys) to `generated_values.yaml`. Make sure you edit the existing `globalConfig` section, don't add a duplicate section.



```

globalConfig:

  chat_gpt_token: YOUR KEY GOES HERE

```



4. Do a Helm upgrade to apply the new values: `helm upgrade robusta robusta/robusta --values=generated_values.yaml --set clusterName=`



5. [Send your Prometheus alerts to Robusta](https://docs.robusta.dev/master/user-guide/alert-manager.html). Alternatively, just use Robusta's bundled Prometheus stack.



# Demo

Instead of waiting around for a Prometheus alert, lets cause one.



1. Deploy a broken pod that will be stuck in pending state:



```

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robusta-dev/kubernetes-demos/main/pending_pods/pending_pod_node_selector.yaml

```



2. Trigger a Prometheus alert immediately, skipping the normal delays:



```

robusta playbooks trigger prometheus_alert alert_name=KubePodCrashLooping namespace=default pod_name=example-pod

```



An alert will arrive in Slack with a button. Click the button to ask ChatGPT about the alert.



# Future Improvements

Can ChatGPT give better answers if you feed it pod logs or the output of `kubectl get events`?



[Robusta](http://robusta.dev) already collects this data and attaches it to Prometheus alerts, so it should be easy to add. 



PRs are welcome!

[^1]: Technically this project doesn't use ChatGPT. It uses the `text-davinci-003` model which is a [GPT3.5-based sibling of ChatGPT](https://matt-rickard.ghost.io/gpt-lineage/). Given that most people are familiar with ChatGPT, but not `text-davinci-003` or GPT3.5, we've decided to keep the name "ChatGPT bot" despite the technical inaccuracy.
