Agent Enabled Server Patch Readiness with Ansible + FlowAI

Описание: How do you add AI to infrastructure automation without losing control?

In this demo, Principal Solutions Engineer Joksan Flores shows how Itential FlowAI turns existing Ansible playbooks into an agent-enabled server patch readiness workflow – with deterministic execution, controlled context, and automated Slack + HTML email reporting.

How It Works:
• Runs patch compliance checks across a server inventory (OS detection + APT/Yum)
• Triggers pre-checks only when patching is required (disk, memory, prerequisites)
• Passes only approved outputs to the agent (not raw logs) using job variables
• Generates a concise Slack summary (10 lines or fewer) and HTML email readiness report with pre-check status highlighted

Why It Matters:
Instead of letting an agent interpret scripts, FlowAI exposes one orchestrated workflow as an MCP tool. The workflow executes deterministically; the agent focuses on summarization and reporting. Every run is visible in Operations Manager for traceability and governance.
