Agentic AI in DevOps
Insights on applying agentic AI to DevOps and software development automation, by practitioners who build and operate agentic AI for DevOps at Sirob Technologies — the team behind B.O.R.I.S, an AI DevOps teammate.
Episodes
#11 — Base of Record for Intelligent Systems
The hosts of Agentic AI in DevOps make the case that the "second brain" idea — long a personal-productivity meme — is exactly what AI agents need to be useful inside a real engineering environment. Without a system of reference, the agent burns its context window rediscovering what is running where, hallucinates the gaps, and needs credentials it should not have. The episode also marks a pivot: B.
#10 — What Changed in Our Daily AI Workflow
In a less-structured episode, the hosts of Agentic AI in DevOps compare day-to-day workflows: what they actually run, what they have stopped doing, and how their habits have shifted since the early autumn. Fernando Gonçalves keeps the classical engineering ritual — linting, tests, coverage targets — and bakes it into a skill so the AI cannot skip past quiet bugs. Vladimir Samoylov has rewired the
#9 — Code with Claude: Routines, Agents, and the AWS Catch
Anthropic's Code with Claude developer conference in San Francisco on May 6, 2026 dropped a wave of platform features aimed squarely at coding teams, and the hosts walk through what actually matters for builders. Andrey Devyatkin reads the SpaceX–Anthropic compute deal as one of the cleverest business moves of the year — xAI is sitting on underutilized GPUs, and "the enemy of my enemy" gets to rai
#8 — DevOps Jobs Agentic AI Can Actually Do
After seven foundation-laying episodes, the hosts of Agentic AI in DevOps take the practitioner's tour: which DevOps jobs agentic AI actually does well, and which still fight back. Andrey Devyatkin reframes the "AI deleted my production database" headlines, arguing they are functionally identical to "my terminal deleted my database" — the human gave the credentials and confirmed the action — and w
#7 — When Agent Memory Helps and When It Hurts
Every session, your agent wakes up with amnesia — the same mistakes, the same rediscovery, the same wasted tokens. Memory is how teams solve this, but as the hosts of Agentic AI in DevOps argue, it is both a superpower and a liability. Andrey Devyatkin goes so far as to say that semantic memory makes an already non-deterministic LLM "even less deterministic," while Fernando Gonçalves warns that a
#6 — The Big AI Squeeze
LLM subsidies are drying up, subscription limits are tightening, and the astronomical data center CapEx has to be paid by someone — spoiler: it is you. In this episode, Fernando Gonçalves, Andrey Devyatkin, and Vladimir Samoylov tackle what they call "the big squeeze": the two-sided pressure of rising AI costs and emerging local-inference technologies that could reshape how teams budget for and de
#5 — Stop Your Agent Before It Breaks Prod
Imagine your agent just deleted a production database — could you have stopped it? The hosts argue that yes, three lines of bash in a single hook could have prevented it, and yet most teams have never configured one. In this episode, Andrey Devyatkin, Vladimir Samoylov, and Fernando Gonçalves pull apart the agentic loop — the repeating cycle of reason, act, observe that makes coding agents appear
#4 — Harness Engineering: What Claude Code Accidentally Taught Everyone
A packaging mistake exposed Claude Code's full source tree to the world — and instead of scandal, the community got a masterclass in how agentic coding tools actually work under the hood. In this episode, Andrey Devyatkin, Vladimir Samoylov, and Fernando Gonçalves unpack what the disclosure revealed about the engineering behind coding agents, introduce the emerging discipline of "harness engineeri
#3 — Skills, Powers, SOPs
What happens when your AI coding tool quietly starts billing like a cloud service — and your team burns through a thousand dollars in a week? Vladimir Samoylov returns as the hosts share their sticker-shock moment with Cursor's new pricing before diving into agent skills. From Claude Code skills to Kiro Powers to AWS Strands SOPs, the naming varies but the idea is the same — plugging structured kn
#2 — The Tool Layer: What Makes Agentic AI Possible
What happens when your AI coding assistant forgets what it was just working on? Andrey Devyatkin and Fernando Gonçalves break down context windows, how MCP servers can consume a large share of the session before the first message, and why over-specifying agent behavior in project rules often hurts output.

#1 — AI in DevOps, 2022 to 2026: From Autocomplete to Action
What if most AI tools sold into DevOps fail because they only see part of the stack? In this first episode of Agentic AI in DevOps, Andrey Devyatkin and Fernando Gonçalves trace AI tooling from ChatGPT's launch in late 2022 through 2025: they treat context—not model hype—as the constraint, and explain why assistants cut off from source, logs, metrics, and docs tend to guess wrong under real operat
