Migrate Claude e2e failure analysis to claude-ai-helpers step-registry - #2408
Conversation
Remove the in-repo Claude CLI/Vertex AI wiring from build/ci-Dockerfile and the Makefile's test-e2e target. The gcp-claude-code-* credential files this relied on were never added to the oadp-credentials vault collection, so it always no-op'd in CI. Failure analysis now runs as an openshift/release step-registry post-step (oadp-analyze-e2e-failure) using the shared claude-ai-helpers image and sa-claude-openshift-ci credential, following the pattern used by medik8s and hypershift. tests/e2e/scripts/analyze_failures.sh is kept for local/manual use only. CLAUDE.md and the design doc are updated to describe the new architecture. Fixes openshift#2407 Signed-off-by: Tiger Kaovilai <tkaovila@redhat.com>

Correct the build/ci-Dockerfile status.
The PR removes Node.js and Claude CLI installation from build/ci-Dockerfile, but Line 44 says that file and the test-oadp-operator image are “unmodified”. Update the sentence to describe the actual Dockerfile cleanup.
This follows the PR objective to remove Node.js and Claude CLI installation from build/ci-Dockerfile.

| ### Local/manual use | ||
|
|
||
| **Likely Cause**: CI cluster hit Quay.io anonymous rate limits | ||
|
|
||
| **Recommended Actions**: | ||
| 1. Configure authenticated Quay.io pull secret in openshift-adp namespace | ||
| 2. Use internal mirror/cache for frequently pulled images | ||
| 3. This will resolve on retry when rate limit window resets | ||
|
|
||
| **Related Issues**: None (environmental) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Known Flakes Detected | ||
|
|
||
| - ✓ S3 transient write errors (matched "Error copying image: writing blob" in per-test logs) | ||
| - ✗ VolumeSnapshotBeingCreated race condition (not detected - MySQL failure is different) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Cluster Health Summary | ||
|
|
||
| From must-gather analysis: | ||
|
|
||
| **OADP Components**: | ||
| - Velero deployment: 1/1 running, 0 restarts, CPU 45m/200m, Memory 128Mi/512Mi | ||
| - Node Agent daemonset: 3/3 running on all worker nodes, no errors | ||
| - Backup Storage Location: Available, last sync 2m ago, 127 backups | ||
| - Volume Snapshot Location: Available, AWS provider configured for us-east-1 | ||
|
|
||
| **Cluster Resources**: | ||
| - CSI drivers: ebs.csi.aws.com (v1.28.0) - Ready | ||
| - Storage classes: gp3-csi (default), gp2-csi | ||
| - Resource pressure: None detected on worker nodes | ||
|
|
||
| **Recent Events**: | ||
| - Warning: ImagePullBackOff for AWS plugin (rate limit) | ||
| - Error: VolumeSnapshot mysql-pvc timeout after 10m | ||
|
|
||
| ## Recommendations (Prioritized) | ||
|
|
||
| ### Immediate Actions (Critical) | ||
| 1. Investigate MySQL VolumeSnapshot timeout - check AWS API throttling and CSI driver resources | ||
| 2. Consider increasing snapshot timeout from 10m to 15m to accommodate slower snapshot operations | ||
|
|
||
| ### Investigation Needed | ||
| 1. Review AWS CloudWatch metrics for EBS API throttling in us-east-1 | ||
| 2. Analyze CSI driver pod CPU/memory usage patterns during snapshot creation | ||
| 3. Check if other tests in the suite are creating many snapshots concurrently (resource contention) | ||
|
|
||
| ### Flake Handling | ||
| 1. Re-run MongoDB FSB test - likely to pass on retry (known S3 flake) | ||
| 2. Update flake detection if this pattern recurs frequently | ||
|
|
||
| ### Configuration Review | ||
| 1. Add authenticated Quay.io pull secrets to prevent image pull rate limiting | ||
| 2. Consider using image mirrors or caching proxy for CI | ||
|
|
||
| ## Analysis Confidence | ||
|
|
||
| - **High Confidence**: MongoDB FSB (known flake pattern), DPA deployment (clear image pull error) | ||
| - **Medium Confidence**: MySQL CSI (likely AWS throttling, but needs CloudWatch verification) | ||
| - **Low Confidence**: None | ||
|
|
||
| ## Suggested Next Steps for Developer | ||
|
|
||
| 1. **Priority 1**: Check AWS CloudWatch for EBS throttling in the test cluster (MySQL failure) | ||
| 2. **Priority 2**: Re-run the full suite to confirm MongoDB FSB as flake | ||
| 3. **Priority 3**: Work with CI team to add Quay.io auth (DPA failure) | ||
| 4. If MySQL failure persists after resolving AWS throttling, increase snapshot timeout and add retries | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ## Alternatives Considered | ||
|
|
||
| ### Ginkgo AfterSuite Hook vs Post-Test Wrapper Script | ||
|
|
||
| **Option A**: Implement Claude analysis in Ginkgo `AfterSuite` hook | ||
| - Pros: Integrated with test framework, access to Go test context | ||
| - Cons: Claude failure could interfere with test reporting, harder to isolate errors, requires modifying test code | ||
|
|
||
| **Option B**: External wrapper script invoked by Makefile (chosen) | ||
| - Pros: Clean separation of concerns, Claude failure doesn't impact test results, easier to debug independently | ||
| - Cons: Requires Makefile modification, slightly more complex plumbing | ||
|
|
||
| **Decision**: Chose Option B for better error isolation and simpler rollback. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Inline Analysis During Tests vs Post-Suite | ||
|
|
||
| **Option A**: Analyze each test failure as it happens (AfterEach hook) | ||
| - Pros: Immediate feedback, smaller context per analysis | ||
| - Cons: Significant test execution time overhead, per-test API costs, incomplete context (can't correlate multiple failures) | ||
|
|
||
| **Option B**: Single analysis after all tests complete (chosen) | ||
| - Pros: No test execution overhead, full suite context for correlation, single API call cost-efficient | ||
| - Cons: Delayed feedback until suite completion | ||
|
|
||
| **Decision**: Chose Option B to avoid impacting test execution time (critical for CI velocity). | ||
|
|
||
| ### Model Selection | ||
|
|
||
| Evaluated Claude models for cost vs capability: | ||
|
|
||
| - **claude-sonnet-4.5**: Best reasoning for complex log analysis, ~$3/M tokens input | ||
| - **claude-haiku-4**: Faster and cheaper, but may miss subtle patterns | ||
| - **claude-opus-4**: Most capable but expensive for CI automation | ||
|
|
||
| **Decision**: Use `claude-sonnet-4.5` (default in Claude Code CLI) as it provides optimal balance of accuracy and cost for technical log analysis. | ||
| `tests/e2e/scripts/analyze_failures.sh` is kept in this repository for developers who want to run the same analysis by hand against a local `make test-e2e` run (with `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS`/`ANTHROPIC_VERTEX_PROJECT_ID`, or a plain `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, set in their own shell). It is not invoked by CI or by any `Makefile` target. |

Update the stale script reference.
tests/e2e/scripts/analyze_failures.sh:7 still calls this document the “superseded design”, while Lines 1-54 now describe the active architecture. Update that script comment or remove the qualifier so local users do not receive conflicting guidance.

Backport of #2408 to oadp-1.6. Remove the in-repo Claude CLI/Vertex AI wiring from build/ci-Dockerfile and the Makefile's test-e2e target. The gcp-claude-code-* credential files this relied on were never added to the oadp-credentials vault collection, so it always no-op'd in CI. Failure analysis now runs as an openshift/release step-registry post-step (oadp-analyze-e2e-failure) using the shared claude-ai-helpers image and sa-claude-openshift-ci credential, following the pattern used by medik8s and hypershift. tests/e2e/scripts/analyze_failures.sh is kept for local/manual use only. CLAUDE.md and the design doc are updated to describe the new architecture. oadp-1.4 and oadp-1.5 do not carry this hook (confirmed via grep), so no equivalent change is needed there.

claude-ai-helpersstep-registry pattern already used bymedik8s,hypershift, etc.build/ci-Dockerfile: drop Claude CLI install and theopenshift/veleroclone step (both existed only to support the old in-container analysis).Makefile'stest-e2etarget: drop thegcp-claude-code-*credential wiring and theanalyze_failures.shinvocation.tests/e2e/scripts/analyze_failures.sh: kept, but repurposed for local/manual use only — no longer invoked by CI.CLAUDE.md/docs/design/claude-prow-failure-analysis_design.md: rewritten to describe the newopenshift/releasestep-registry architecture (post-step, shared image, shared credential).The removed hook was a pure no-op in CI — the
gcp-claude-code-*credential files it depended on were never added to theoadp-credentialsvault collection — so this is a safe removal regardless of merge order with the companionopenshift/releasePR.Companion PR (already open, adds the
