Endpoint AIops (preview)

Governed AI-ops for managed-endpoint fleets — thin clients, VDI endpoints, and other centrally-managed devices — with a built-in governance harness: unified audit log, policy engine, token/runaway budget guard, undo-token recording, and graduated-autonomy risk tiers. Vendor-neutral: it talks to an endpoint-management server's REST API (Bearer auth). Self-contained: no dependencies beyond httpx and the MCP SDK. Preview — mock-validated only, not yet verified against a live management server.

What it does

Two signature analyses, plus the guarded reads and writes around them:

• Login-storm analysis — during a "everyone logs in at 9am" incident, detect the storm (bursts of concurrent logins in a sliding window) and rank the endpoints/users dragging login and boot times. Every flag is reported with its number, not a black-box verdict.
• Patch / config drift — find endpoints that have drifted from the fleet (outdated patch level, stray agent version, divergent OS build or config profile). With no declared baseline it derives one by fleet majority, so it works before a gold image exists.

What works

• CLI (endpoint-aiops ...): init, overview, endpoint list/get/assign-profile/reboot, session list/storm, drift report/patch, secret set/list/rm/migrate/rotate-password, doctor, mcp.
• MCP server (endpoint-aiops mcp or endpoint-aiops-mcp): 11 tools (9 read, 2 write), every one wrapped with the bundled @governed_tool harness.
• Encrypted credentials: the management-server API key lives in an encrypted store ~/.endpoint-aiops/secrets.enc (Fernet + scrypt) — never plaintext on disk. Unlock with a master password from ENDPOINT_AIOPS_MASTER_PASSWORD (MCP/CI) or an interactive prompt (CLI).
• Reversibility: endpoint_assign_profile (high risk) captures the prior profile and records an inverse "reassign the prior profile" undo descriptor. endpoint_reboot (medium risk) captures the prior online state for the audit record but declares no undo (a reboot has no safe inverse).
• Safety: state-changing CLI ops (endpoint assign-profile, endpoint reboot) require double confirmation and support --dry-run.

Capability matrix (11 MCP tools)

Category	Tools	Count	R/W
Overview	overview	1	read
Inventory	endpoint_list, endpoint_get, endpoint_health_score	3	read
Sessions	session_list, login_storm_analysis	2	read
Drift	drift_report, patch_status, patch_compliance	3	read
Remediation	endpoint_assign_profile	1	write (high)
	endpoint_reboot	1	write (medium)

The analysis tools (login_storm_analysis, drift_report, patch_status, patch_compliance, endpoint_health_score) accept injected records for pure/offline analysis; endpoint_health_score and patch_compliance are injected-only, the others also pull live from a configured target.

Quick start

uv tool install endpoint-aiops          # or: pipx install endpoint-aiops
endpoint-aiops init                     # wizard: add a target + store its API key (encrypted)
endpoint-aiops doctor                   # verify config, secrets, connectivity
endpoint-aiops overview                 # one-shot fleet health
endpoint-aiops session storm            # detect a login storm + slow contributors
endpoint-aiops drift report             # endpoints drifted from the fleet baseline

Run as an MCP server (stdio):

export ENDPOINT_AIOPS_MASTER_PASSWORD=...   # unlock secrets non-interactively
endpoint-aiops-mcp

Governance

Every MCP tool passes through the bundled @governed_tool harness:

• Audit — every call (params, result, status, duration, risk tier, approver, rationale) is logged to ~/.endpoint-aiops/audit.db (relocatable via ENDPOINT_AIOPS_HOME).
• Budget / runaway guard — token and call budgets trip a circuit breaker.
• Risk tiers — graduated autonomy; high-risk ops can require a named approver (ENDPOINT_AUDIT_APPROVED_BY / ENDPOINT_AUDIT_RATIONALE).
• Undo recording — reversible writes record an inverse descriptor.

Scope

This is the IT-endpoint member of the AIops-tools family (governed AI-ops with audit + budget + undo + risk tiers). For OT / industrial edge (Modbus, OPC-UA, PROFINET, …) see the separate industrial-aiops line.

Status

Preview — mock-validated only. The endpoint-management REST paths are modelled generically (/endpoints, /sessions, /version) and need live verification against a real server. Missing a capability or a server dialect? Open an issue or PR — contributions welcome.
