## ⚠️ **CRITICAL ISSUES IN THIS DOCUMENT**

**This document is ~50% incorrect for V1. Missing key architectural patterns!**

| Issue | Severity | What's Wrong |
|-------|----------|--------------|
| **API Group** | 🟡 MEDIUM | `ai.kubernaut.io` → Should be `aianalysis.kubernaut.io` |
| **API Version** | 🟡 MEDIUM | `v1` → Should be `v1alpha1` |
| **Parent Reference** | 🔴 HIGH | `alertRemediationRef` → Should be `remediationRequestRef` |
| **LLM-Driven Pattern** | 🔴 HIGH | Missing LLM-driven tool selection (function calling) documentation |
| **Dependency Specification** | 🔴 HIGH | Missing recommendation `id` and `dependencies` fields for parallel execution |
| **Outdated Status** | 🟡 MEDIUM | Claims "APPROVED" but implementation uses v1alpha1 (pre-release) |

**Schema Completeness**: ~50% of V1 patterns documented

**Missing V1 Patterns**:
- LLM dynamically decides which tools to invoke
- Context API data requested adaptively by HolmesGPT
- Recommendation dependencies enable parallel/sequential execution

# AIAnalysis CRD Design Document

**Document Version**: 1.0
**Date**: January 2025
**Status**: **DEPRECATED** - See banner above (was: "APPROVED")
**CRD Version**: V1alpha1 - HolmesGPT Only
**Module**: AI Analysis Service (`aianalysis.kubernaut.io`)

---

## 🎯 **Purpose & Scope**

### **Business Purpose**
The `AIAnalysis CRD` manages AI-powered analysis of alerts using HolmesGPT investigation capabilities. This CRD coordinates intelligent alert investigation, root cause analysis, and remediation recommendations while maintaining analysis state for the AI Analysis Service.

### **V1 Scope - HolmesGPT Only**
- **HolmesGPT Integration**: Primary and only AI provider for V1
- **Investigation Orchestration**: Coordinate HolmesGPT toolset-based analysis
- **Recommendation Generation**: Generate and rank remediation recommendations
- **Safety Analysis**: Assess action safety and risk levels
- **State Management**: Track analysis progress and maintain audit trail

### **Future V2 Scope** (Not Implemented)
- Multi-provider AI support (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
- LLM fallback mechanisms
- Advanced provider routing

---

## 📋 **Business Requirements Addressed**

### **Core AI Analysis Requirements**
- **BR-AI-001**: MUST provide contextual analysis of Kubernetes alerts and system state
- **BR-AI-002**: MUST support multiple analysis types (diagnostic, predictive, prescriptive)
- **BR-AI-003**: MUST generate structured analysis results with confidence scoring
- **BR-AI-006**: MUST generate actionable remediation recommendations based on alert context
- **BR-AI-007**: MUST rank recommendations by effectiveness probability
- **BR-AI-008**: MUST consider historical success rates in recommendation scoring
- **BR-AI-009**: MUST support constraint-based recommendation filtering
- **BR-AI-010**: MUST provide recommendation explanations with supporting evidence

### **Investigation Requirements**
- **BR-AI-011**: MUST conduct intelligent alert investigation using historical patterns
- **BR-AI-012**: MUST identify root cause candidates with supporting evidence
- **BR-AI-013**: MUST correlate alerts across time windows and resource boundaries
- **BR-AI-014**: MUST generate investigation reports with actionable insights
- **BR-AI-015**: MUST support custom investigation scopes and time windows

### **Quality Assurance Requirements**
- **BR-AI-021**: MUST validate AI responses for completeness and accuracy
- **BR-AI-022**: MUST implement confidence thresholds for automated decision making
- **BR-AI-023**: MUST detect and handle AI hallucinations or invalid responses
- **BR-AI-024**: MUST provide fallback mechanisms when AI services are unavailable

### **HolmesGPT-Specific Requirements**
- **BR-HAPI-INVESTIGATION-001 to 005**: Enhanced HolmesGPT investigation capabilities
- **BR-HAPI-RECOVERY-001 to 006**: Recovery analysis and recommendations
- **BR-HAPI-SAFETY-001 to 006**: Action safety analysis
- **BR-HAPI-POSTEXEC-001 to 005**: Post-execution analysis and learning

## 🎛️ **Controller Responsibilities**

### **Primary Functions**
1. **HolmesGPT Integration**: Manage HolmesGPT API communication and toolset orchestration
2. **Investigation Orchestration**: Coordinate multi-phase analysis workflow
3. **Quality Validation**: Validate analysis results and detect hallucinations
4. **Recommendation Generation**: Generate and rank remediation recommendations with safety analysis
5. **State Management**: Track analysis progress and maintain comprehensive audit trail
6. **Error Handling**: Implement retry mechanisms and graceful degradation

### **Reconciliation Logic**
```go
// AIAnalysisController reconciliation phases
func (r *AIAnalysisController) Reconcile(ctx context.Context, req ctrl.Request) (ctrl.Result, error) {
    // Phase 1: Investigation (2-3 minutes)
    // - Call HolmesGPT API with enriched alert context
    // - Execute configured toolsets for comprehensive analysis
    // - Extract root cause candidates and supporting evidence

    // Phase 2: Analysis Processing (30-60 seconds)
    // - Process HolmesGPT investigation results
    // - Perform contextual analysis and pattern recognition
    // - Assess business impact and severity scope

    // Phase 3: Recommendation Generation (30-60 seconds)
    // - Generate actionable remediation recommendations
    // - Perform safety analysis for each recommendation
    // - Rank recommendations by effectiveness and safety

    // Phase 4: Validation (10-30 seconds)
    // - Validate analysis completeness and accuracy
    // - Detect potential hallucinations or invalid responses
    // - Calculate overall confidence scores

    // Phase 5: Completion
    // - Update AlertRemediation status with analysis results
    // - Persist audit data for historical learning
    // - Trigger next phase (WorkflowExecution CRD creation)
}
```

### **Integration Points**
- **Input**: Receives enriched alert context from `AlertProcessing CRD`
- **HolmesGPT API**: Primary integration point for AI analysis
- **Output**: Creates `WorkflowExecution CRD` with analysis results and recommendations
- **Audit**: Persists analysis data for historical learning and effectiveness tracking
