InfraPilot 🛰️

Agentic AI for infrastructure operations. A multi-agent system that provisions, monitors, validates compliance and auto-remediates cloud, network and security infrastructure — built on Python, MCP, Anthropic Claude, Terraform and Ansible.

InfraPilot closes the full ops loop end-to-end: provision → configure → observe → audit → remediate → re-audit, coordinated by a crew of specialised AI agents — and it runs out of the box with no cloud account, no API key and no Terraform/Ansible binaries required (it transparently simulates execution when a binary is absent).

Why it exists

Most "AI for DevOps" demos stop at a chatbot that writes a Terraform snippet. InfraPilot models the operational loop an automation engineer actually owns: turning declarative intent into running infrastructure, watching it, proving it meets security/governance policy, and fixing drift automatically through code — with every action typed, reported and auditable.

Architecture

Two ways to drive it (CLI or MCP) feed one orchestrator. The orchestrator runs a crew of five agents in sequence; each agent owns exactly one tool, and every tool runs through a single executor that either calls the real binary or falls back to a labelled simulation. Claude is an optional reasoning layer wired into the agents — never a hard dependency.

• One orchestrator, one job each. A dependency-free sequential loop coordinates the five agents; the whole thing runs in CI and is what the tests exercise — no heavyweight agent framework to install or mock.

• Tools are the source of truth. Terraform, Ansible, monitoring, policy and remediation logic live in infrapilot/tools/, shared by both the CLI loop and the MCP server — one implementation, two ways to drive it.

• MCP-native. infrapilot/mcp_server/ exposes the tools over the Model Context Protocol, so Claude Desktop / Claude Code / any MCP client can run infra operations through natural language.

• Claude optional. With ANTHROPIC_API_KEY set, each agent calls Claude to triage anomalies and justify remediations. Without it, the loop still completes deterministically.

Quickstart

git clone https://github.com/Gsfrota/infra-pilot && cd infra-pilot
python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"

infrapilot demo          # fully simulated end-to-end run — no creds needed

Example output (abridged):

╭──────────────────────── InfraPilot run ────────────────────────╮
│ engine=native  llm=off  compliance score=100.0/100             │
╰────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯
 provision   ok     4 resources provisioned (simulated)
 configure   ok     configuration applied (simulated)
 observe     warn   3 anomalies detected
 audit       error  3 violations, score 43.8
 remediate   ok     3 fixes applied, score 43.8 -> 100.0

Commands

Use it from Claude (MCP)

pip install -e ".[mcp]"
infrapilot-mcp            # serves the tools over MCP (stdio)

// claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "infrapilot": { "command": "infrapilot-mcp" }
  }
}

Then ask Claude: "Provision the infra, audit it for security issues, and remediate anything critical."

How the loop works

1. Provision — TerraformTool applies infra/desired_state.yaml (real terraform apply against the local/null/random providers when the binary is present; simulated otherwise).

2. Configure — AnsibleTool converges host configuration via a playbook.

3. Observe — MonitoringTool ingests a Prometheus-style telemetry snapshot and triages anomalies against thresholds.

4. Audit — the policy-as-code engine evaluates every resource against policies/policies.yaml; new governance rules are added in YAML, not code.

5. Remediate — RemediationTool maps each violation to a least-privilege fix and applies it through the right IaC backend (Terraform or Ansible).

6. Re-audit — the loop re-scores compliance to prove the drift is closed.

Policy-as-code

- id: SEC-001
  name: "No SSH open to the internet"
  severity: critical
  resource_type: security_group
  rule: no_ingress_cidr
  params: { port: 22, forbidden_cidr: "0.0.0.0/0" }
  remediation: restrict_sg_ingress

Built-in rules: required_tag, no_ingress_cidr, attribute_equals, attribute_max. Built-in remediations: add_tag, restrict_sg_ingress, enable_encryption, restart_service.

Development

pip install -e ".[dev]"
ruff check .          # lint
pytest                # tests
infrapilot demo       # smoke test the full loop

CI (GitHub Actions) runs ruff + pytest on 3.10/3.11/3.12 and additionally installs real Terraform and Ansible to validate/lint the IaC.

Roadmap

• Real cloud providers behind a feature flag (AWS/GCP modules)

• Parallel agent execution where the loop allows it

• Drift detection on a schedule (cron / GitHub Actions)

• OPA/Rego policy backend option
