Hi, Nathan. I'm CCing devel@ and test@ so folks are aware this has been going on.
It came to my attention this morning that you appear to be using some kind of agentic AI system to try and resolve Fedora bugs. It's great that you're trying to fix things, but the results seem to be kind of erratic. I'm still working through your Bugzilla history, but so far I've seen several issues.
1. You or your system (henceforth just "you", for simplicity) are consistently re-assigning bugs to your account, even though you are not a maintainer of any of the affected packages AFAICT and so do not actually have the power to resolve them in Fedora. Fedora Bugzilla is for tracking the *downstream* state of bugs; thus the assignee should be a person who can actually resolve the bug in downstream, i.e. a package maintainer. Please stop assigning bugs to your account. Examples: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2477150 , https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2480139 , https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2480661 etc. etc. (there are dozens of these).
2. You have closed multiple bugs immediately upon submitting an apparently-LLM generated fix upstream, or upon a proposed fix being merged upstream. This is not appropriate for downstream Fedora reports. The appropriate state for a Fedora downstream bug where a fix is proposed upstream but not yet applied in any way downstream is POST. The downstream bug should only be closed when a fix is applied downstream and has reached stable (and, ideally, been verified in testing). Examples: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2469013 , https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2479830
3. You have closed multiple bugs in components you do not own as NOTABUG, with a clearly LLM-generated comment. In several instances the comment more or less regurgitated the reporter's description: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2481872#c1 , https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2481744#c2 . In other cases the message is superficially plausible, but problematic in other ways, e.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2481012#c2 , where you confidently asserted that the problem was definitely a firmware issue and explicitly recommended a difficult and potentially problematic action ("Please try installing the `intel_cvs` driver from the Intel Vision Drivers repository").
4. You have submitted LLM-generated "fixes" that are incorrect, and replied to objections with LLM-generated justifications that eventually overwhelmed the maintainer into merging the fix: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/7074#issuecomment-4556782893
I don't think, taken together, these actions are having a positive impact on Fedora or the upstream projects.
I would suggest you adjust your agentic system to be substantially less autonomous. Specifically, I would suggest that it must not:
1. Assign bugs in RHBZ to yourself 2. Change the state of bugs 3. Post confident assertions or specific action recommendations
without review by yourself or another human with appropriate topic area understanding. In all cases it should not assign bugs to yourself or any other party who does not actually have the necessary commit access to resolve those bugs *in Fedora*, and should not change the state of a bug incorrectly (the reference here is https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/bug_status/ , but that doc is unfortunately broken, I see; I'll send a fix when I'm done cleaning this up). Any LLM-generated text that purports to explain why an issue is happening, why a given change would fix it, and/or recommends any actions to a reporter or maintainer should be clearly flagged as LLM-generated and potentially incorrect, unless it has been carefully reviewed and edited by a human expert.
Thanks!
