# LLM-Powered Monitoring Agent
This project is a self-hosted monitoring agent that uses a local Large Language Model (LLM) to detect anomalies in system and network data. It's designed to be a simple, self-contained Python script that can be easily deployed on a server.
## 1. Installation
To get started, you'll need to have Python 3.8 or newer installed. Then, follow these steps:
1. **Clone the repository or download the files:**
```bash
git clone <repository_url>
cd <repository_directory>
```
2. **Create and activate a Python virtual environment:**
```bash
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows, use `venv\Scripts\activate`
```
3. **Install the required Python libraries:**
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## 2. Setup
Before running the agent, you need to configure it and ensure the necessary services are running.
### Prerequisites
- **Ollama:** The agent requires that [Ollama](https://ollama.com/) is installed and running on the server.
- **LLM Model:** You must have the `llama3.1:8b` model pulled and available in Ollama. You can pull it with the following command:
```bash
ollama pull llama3.1:8b
```
### Configuration
All configuration is done in the `config.py` file. You will need to replace the placeholder values with your actual credentials and URLs.
- `DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL`: Your Discord channel's webhook URL. This is used to send alerts.
- `HOME_ASSISTANT_URL`: The URL of your Home Assistant instance (e.g., `http://192.168.1.50:8123`).
- `HOME_ASSISTANT_TOKEN`: A Long-Lived Access Token for your Home Assistant instance. You can generate this in your Home Assistant profile settings.
- `GOOGLE_HOME_SPEAKER_ID`: The `media_player` entity ID for your Google Home speaker in Home Assistant (e.g., `media_player.kitchen_speaker`).
## 3. Usage
Once the installation and setup are complete, you can run the monitoring agent with the following command:
```bash
python monitor_agent.py
```
The script will start a continuous monitoring loop. Every 5 minutes, it will:
1. Collect simulated system and network data.
2. Send the data to the local LLM for analysis.
3. If the LLM detects a **high-severity** anomaly, it will send an alert to your configured Discord channel and broadcast a message to your Google Home speaker via Home Assistant.
4. At the time specified in `DAILY_RECAP_TIME`, a summary of all anomalies for the day will be sent to the Discord channel.
The script will print its status and any detected anomalies to the console.
## 4. Features
### Priority System
The monitoring agent uses a priority system to classify anomalies. The LLM is instructed to return a severity level for each anomaly it detects. The possible severity levels are:
- **high**: Indicates a critical issue that requires immediate attention. An alert is sent to Discord and Google Home.
- **medium**: Indicates a non-critical issue that should be investigated. No alert is sent.
- **low**: Indicates a minor issue or a potential false positive. No alert is sent.
- **none**: Indicates that no anomaly was detected.
### Known Issues Feed
The agent uses a `known_issues.json` file to provide the LLM with a list of known issues and their resolutions. This helps the LLM to avoid flagging resolved or expected issues as anomalies.
You can add new issues to the `known_issues.json` file by following the existing format. Each issue should have an "issue" and a "resolution" key. For example:
```json
[
{
"issue": "CPU temperature spikes to 80C under heavy load",
"resolution": "This is normal behavior for this CPU model and is not a cause for concern."
}
]
```
**Note on Mock Data:** The current version of the script uses mock data for system logs and network metrics. To use this in a real-world scenario, you would need to replace the mock data with actual data from your systems.
