Cloud SRE Agent: Multi-Provider Autonomous Monitoring and Remediation

Welcome to the Cloud SRE Agent, an autonomous multi-provider system designed to enhance your cloud operations by intelligently monitoring logs and automating incident response. This project leverages the power of 100+ AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Cohere, Ollama, and more) to bring advanced AI capabilities directly into your Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) workflows.

At its core, the Cloud SRE Agent acts as a proactive digital assistant, continuously observing your cloud environment. When anomalies or critical events are detected in your logs, it doesn't just alert you; it initiates a structured process of analysis, generates intelligent code fixes using its unified code generation system, and proposes concrete remediation steps, culminating in automated GitHub Pull Requests. This approach aims to reduce manual toil, accelerate incident resolution, and improve the overall reliability of your cloud services.

Whether you're looking to streamline your incident management, gain deeper insights from your operational data, or simply explore the practical applications of generative AI in SRE, the Cloud SRE Agent offers a robust and extensible foundation. It's built with an emphasis on configurability, resilience, and clear observability, ensuring it can adapt to diverse cloud environments and operational needs.

Dive in to discover how this agent can transform your cloud log monitoring into an intelligent, automated, and resilient operation.

4-Layer Pattern Detection System

The agent implements a sophisticated pattern detection engine that processes log streams through four distinct analytical layers. This system enables proactive incident detection and reduces response times by identifying emerging issues before they escalate.

Layer 1: Time Window Management

The system accumulates incoming log entries into configurable sliding time windows. Each window maintains temporal boundaries and automatically processes accumulated logs when the window expires. This approach enables the analysis of log patterns across time intervals rather than processing individual log entries in isolation.

Technical Implementation:

• Configurable window duration (default: 5 minutes)
• Automatic log aggregation by timestamp
• Service-based log grouping within windows
• Memory-efficient window rotation and cleanup

Layer 2: Smart Threshold Evaluation

Multiple threshold types evaluate each time window against dynamic baselines and absolute limits. The system maintains historical baselines and compares current metrics against these learned patterns to detect deviations.

Threshold Types:

• Error Frequency: Absolute error count thresholds with service grouping
• Error Rate: Percentage increase from rolling baseline averages
• Service Impact: Multi-service failure detection across correlated services
• Severity Weighted: Weighted scoring system based on log severity levels
• Cascade Failure: Cross-service correlation analysis within time windows

Baseline Tracking:

• Rolling window baselines (configurable history depth)
• Service-specific baseline calculation
• Automatic baseline adaptation over time

Layer 3: Pattern Classification

When thresholds trigger, the system applies classification algorithms to identify specific failure patterns. Each pattern type has distinct characteristics and triggers different remediation approaches.

Detected Pattern Types:

• Cascade Failure: Sequential failures across dependent services
• Service Degradation: Performance degradation within a single service
• Traffic Spike: Volume-induced system stress and failures
• Configuration Issue: Deployment or configuration-related problems
• Dependency Failure: External service or dependency problems
• Resource Exhaustion: Memory, CPU, or storage capacity issues
• Sporadic Errors: Random distributed failures without clear correlation

Layer 4: Confidence Scoring

A quantitative confidence assessment system evaluates pattern matches using 15+ measurable factors. This scoring system provides numerical confidence levels and detailed explanations for each classification decision.

Confidence Factors:

• Temporal Analysis: Time concentration, correlation, onset patterns (rapid vs gradual)
• Service Impact: Service count, distribution uniformity, cross-service correlation
• Error Characteristics: Frequency, severity distribution, type consistency, message similarity
• Historical Context: Baseline deviation, trend analysis, seasonal patterns
• External Factors: Dependency health, resource utilization, deployment timing

Scoring Process:

• Weighted factor combination with configurable rules per pattern type
• Decay functions (linear, exponential, logarithmic) for factor processing
• Threshold-based factor filtering
• Normalized confidence scores (0.0 to 1.0) with categorical levels (VERY_LOW to VERY_HIGH)

Output:

• Overall confidence score with factor breakdown
• Human-readable explanations for classification decisions
• Raw factor values for debugging and tuning

This multi-layer approach reduces false positives while maintaining high sensitivity to genuine incidents. The confidence scoring system provides transparency into classification decisions, enabling operators to understand and tune detection behavior based on their specific environment characteristics.

Loading

Pattern Analysis:

• Multi-provider AI strategy leveraging both Fast AI models (speed) and Balanced AI models (accuracy) from various providers
• Similarity-based response caching reducing API costs by up to 60% while maintaining accuracy
• Context-aware analysis incorporating recent code changes, dependencies, and repository structure
• Structured output schemas ensuring consistent, validated AI responses

Quality & Cost Controls:

• Pre-processing validation filtering low-quality logs before expensive AI analysis
• Intelligent caching system matching similar incident contexts to avoid redundant API calls
• Real-time cost monitoring with configurable budget limits and alerts
• Performance drift detection identifying model degradation over time

Security & Compliance:

• Comprehensive PII sanitization removing sensitive data (emails, IPs, tokens, API keys)

• Pattern-based credential detection and replacement before AI processing

• Audit logging for all AI interactions and data transformations

    This ML enhancement layer transforms raw log analysis into intelligent, context-aware incident detection with automated code repository integration using multiple AI providers, significantly improving remediation accuracy while optimizing operational costs.

Getting Started (Quick Overview)

To quickly get started, ensure you have Python 3.12+ and uv installed. Clone the repository, install dependencies with uv sync, authenticate your gcloud CLI, and set your GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable. Then, explore config/config.yaml to define your monitoring services.

Log Ingestion System: The agent features a comprehensive log ingestion system with enterprise-grade monitoring and resilience. Enable it with:

export USE_LOG_INGESTION_SYSTEM=true
export ENABLE_MONITORING=true
export ENABLE_LEGACY_FALLBACK=true

You can run the agent locally with python main.py or deploy it to Cloud Run using the provided deploy.sh script. The system provides seamless deployment with full backward compatibility.
