LLMs and Agents in DevOps Workflows Training Course

Introduction to LLMs and Agent Frameworks

• The role of large language models in infrastructure automation
• Core concepts underpinning multi-agent workflows
• Exploring AutoGen, CrewAI, and LangChain: DevOps use cases

Configuring LLM Agents for DevOps Tasks

• Installing AutoGen and defining agent profiles
• Utilising OpenAI API and alternative LLM providers
• Establishing workspaces and CI/CD-compatible environments

Automating Test and Code Quality Processes

• Prompting LLMs to create unit and integration tests
• Employing agents to enforce linting standards, commit rules, and code review guidelines
• Automating pull request summarisation and tagging

LLM Agents for Alert Management and Change Detection

• Developing responder agents for pipeline failure alerts
• Analysing logs and traces via language models
• Proactively identifying high-risk changes or configuration errors

Multi-Agent Orchestration in DevOps

• Role-based agent coordination (planner, executor, reviewer)
• Managing agent messaging loops and memory persistence
• Implementing human-in-the-loop designs for critical systems

Security, Governance, and Observability

• Mitigating data exposure risks and ensuring LLM safety in infrastructure
• Auditing agent actions and constraining operational scope
• Monitoring pipeline behaviour and incorporating model feedback

Real-World Applications and Custom Scenarios

• Architecting agent workflows for incident response
• Integrating agents with GitHub Actions, Slack, or Jira
