Summary

Adds a new LLM evaluation test (eval 289) that validates Holmes's ability to diagnose CPU throttling caused by an application-level caching bug. The eval tests the complete investigation chain: metrics → logs → source code analysis via MCP.

Key Changes

  • Kubernetes deployment (deployment.yaml): Sets up a quote-service pod with intentional CPU throttling, a rate-sync worker to generate load, Promtail for log shipping to Loki, and a GitLab-mimicking MCP server that serves the application source code
  • Application code (app/server.py, app/tariff_engine.py, app/README.md): Implements a shipping quote service with a deliberate cache-key mismatch bug — tariff matrices are stored with key format "ORIGIN->DEST" but looked up via _cache_key() which builds "ORIGIN:DEST", causing cache misses and repeated expensive computations
  • GitLab MCP server (gitlab_mcp_server.py): Provides read-only repository access tools (list_projects, get_repository_tree, get_file_contents, list_commits) that serve the exact source files the pod executes, enabling Holmes to discover the bug by reading the code
  • Test case definition (test_case.yaml): Defines the eval scenario, expected outputs, setup/teardown, and validation needles:
    • Needle 1: Loki contains slow-function warnings (compute_tariff_matrix took NNNms)
    • Needle 2: The exact buggy write-key expression is present in tariff_engine.py served by MCP
    • Needle 3: Real CPU throttling metrics appear in Prometheus (cAdvisor container_cpu_cfs_throttled_periods_total)
  • Toolset configuration (toolsets.yaml): Enables Kubernetes, Loki, Prometheus, and GitLab MCP toolsets with appropriate port-forwards and API endpoints

Implementation Details

  • The cache bug is subtle: _cache_key() returns "AMS:JFK" but the code stores under "AMS->JFK", so every request recomputes the expensive tariff matrix
  • The eval requires real CPU throttling metrics from cAdvisor (via kube-prometheus-stack), not synthetic metrics
  • Promtail ships JSON logs to Loki so Holmes can discover the slow-function hint without kubectl logs
  • The MCP server reads application source from a Kubernetes Secret (same Secret the pod executes), ensuring Holmes reads the exact running code
  • Setup validates three needles before allowing the test to proceed, ensuring the scenario is properly configured
  • Generous 900s setup timeout accounts for image pulls, pip installs, and metric accumulation (cAdvisor scrapes ~30s intervals)

Note: originally authored as eval 283; renumbered to 289 after master gained other evals numbered 283 (one of which uses the app-283 namespace). Namespace is now app-289 and port-forwards use 10289/11289/12289.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a quote-service evaluation scenario with health checks, quote calculation, caching, input validation, and structured request logging.
    • Added Kubernetes deployment support with readiness checks, scheduled rate synchronization, resource monitoring, and shared log collection.
    • Added read-only repository browsing, file access, and commit history through a GitLab-compatible interface.
    • Added Loki and Prometheus validation for slow computations and CPU throttling.
  • Documentation

    • Added Poetry locking guidance, sandbox limitations, troubleshooting workarounds, and quote-service documentation.

New ask-holmes eval testing a full metrics -> logs -> source-code
root-cause chain:

- quote-service (namespace app-283, CPU limit 200m) recomputes an
  expensive tariff matrix on every request because cache entries are
  written under the key format ORIGIN->DEST but looked up via
  _cache_key(), which builds ORIGIN:DEST — the cache never hits, CPU
  pegs at the CFS quota, and Prometheus fires CPUThrottlingHigh.
- Loki (promtail sidecar) carries warnings that name only the slow
  function (compute_tariff_matrix took NNNNms), not the cause.
- A GitLab-mimicking MCP server (FastMCP, streamable-http) exposes
  list_projects / get_repository_tree / get_file_contents /
  list_commits, serving the exact source files the pod runs (both
  mount the same Secret), plus a commit history whose latest entry is
  the refactor that introduced the bug.

The expected root cause (the mismatched key formats in
tariff_engine.py) can only be produced by reading the code, ruling out
hallucination. Verified end-to-end in the sandbox: setup needles all
pass and opus-4.6 (via OpenRouter) finds the exact bug and the
offending commit, 1/1.

Also document three new Claude Code sandbox limitations discovered
while verifying (GitHub release downloads blocked, CFS quota not
enforced, pip TLS MITM inside pods) in CLAUDE.md.

Adds workload setup, readiness checks, Loki warning validation, MCP source inspection, Prometheus throttling checks, cleanup, and tool configuration.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2942b

The fixture still accepts blank weight_kg values as the default instead of rejecting them, and its MCP dependency can change behavior as upstream releases move within the allowed range. These are bounded test-correctness and reproducibility risks that are mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up.

- Tighten the needle-2 setup check: grep for the exact buggy write-key
  expression ('}->{dest.upper()}') instead of a bare '->', which also
  matched ordinary return-type annotations and could never fail.
- Move the rate-sync-worker loop out of inline Deployment args into
  rate-sync.sh, mounted from a Secret, matching the repo convention and
  the other scripts in this fixture.
- Drop the no-cicd tag: the labeled CI run executed this eval on the
  KIND cluster and it passed 1/1 (opus-4.6), proving the prerequisites
  (kube-prometheus, real CFS throttling, in-pod pip) all exist in CI.

While this PR was open, master gained two other evals numbered 283, and
283_todowrite_multistep_audit claims the app-283 namespace this eval
used — parallel runs would collide on namespace create/delete. Renumber
the fixture to the next free slot: directory, namespace (app-289), and
port-forward ports (10289/11289/12289, verified unique repo-wide), plus
the CLAUDE.md references.

Comment thread tests/llm/fixtures/test_ask_holmes/289_cpu_throttling_code_bug/app/server.py Outdated
- server.py: reject non-positive/non-finite weight_kg with HTTP 400
  before computing quotes; rename log_message's 'format' parameter to
  avoid shadowing the builtin.
- gitlab_mcp_server.py: validate the 'ref' argument — only the default
  branch and its HEAD commit are mirrored, so other refs now return an
  explicit error instead of main's content mislabeled as the requested
  revision; rename a comprehension variable for clarity.

Skipped the suggested TariffEngine unit tests: the engine is a
deliberately buggy eval fixture (its cache is designed to never hit),
so tests asserting normal cache behavior would fail by design.

The CI eval run's setup failed: the init container's unbounded
'mcp[cli]>=1.25.0' now resolves to mcp 2.0.0, which removed the
mcp.server.fastmcp module the server imports, so the pod crash-looped
(ModuleNotFoundError) and never became ready. Bound the constraint to
<2 so it resolves to a 1.x release with the FastMCP import path.

Note: eval 254's mcp-oauth-server manifest uses the same unbounded
constraint and likely has the same latent breakage; left out of scope
for this PR.
