Abstract
The system uses an Agentic AI + RAG architecture to analyze error logs using Sentence Transformers and retrieve relevant faulty code from a ChromaDB vector database. Llama 3 (via Groq) then reasons over the error context and source code to generate accurate, syntax-valid, and logically consistent patches.
All fixes are validated in a secure sandbox environment before being auto-committed to the repository. This enables fully autonomous recovery of CI/CD pipelines, transforming DevOps into an AI-driven, self-healing system that reduces downtime and accelerates software delivery.
