MLOps Architecture Phases 3-5 Implementation¶

Last Updated: 2026-06-22

Status: ✅ Complete
Date: 2026-01-07
Part of: MLOps Architecture Remediation Plan

Phase 3: Configuration Sprawl Resolution ✅¶

Problem¶

Multiple overlapping configuration directories causing confusion and maintenance burden: - conf/ - Hydra-based configs (10 files) - configs/ - Application configs (161 files) - config/ - Deprecated (1 file) - config_legacy/ - Deprecated Python configs - omegaconf/ - Deprecated

Solution¶

File: src/codex_init.py (12.4KB, 430 lines)

Centralized Configuration Loader¶

ConfigLoader - Single source of truth for config loading
Primary: conf/ directory (Hydra/OmegaConf)
Secondary: configs/ directory (application-specific)
Deprecated warnings for old directories
Configuration caching for performance
Environment variable support (CODEX_* prefix)

Key Features¶

Unified API

from src.codex_init import load_config

# Load from primary directory
config = load_config("model/base")

# Load with overrides
config = load_config("training/minimal", overrides={"batch_size": 32})

# Load from subdirectory
config = load_config("defaults", config_path="experiment")

Deprecation Management
Strict mode: Raises errors for deprecated access
Warning mode: Logs warnings (default)
allow_deprecated=True for gradual migration

Migration Tools

from src.codex_init import detect_config_sprawl, generate_migration_report

# Analyze configuration sprawl
sprawl = detect_config_sprawl()
# Returns: {"primary": [files...], "configs": [files...], ...}

# Generate migration report
report = generate_migration_report()
# Markdown report with recommendations

Benefits¶

✅ Single config loading API across codebase
✅ Clear deprecation path for old directories
✅ Environment variable support
✅ Configuration caching
✅ Multi-format support (YAML, JSON, TOML)

Phase 4: CI/CD Pipeline Refactoring ✅¶

Problem¶

Workflows automatically trigger on push (cost concerns)
Inconsistent runner tags across workflows
No context generation for agent consumption
Manual workflow management difficult

Solution¶

File: src/workflow_refactor.py (12.9KB, 450 lines)

Workflow Refactoring Utility¶

WorkflowRefactorer - Automated workflow modification
Adds workflow_dispatch triggers for manual gating
Ensures runs-on: [self-hosted, linux] compliance
Adds codex_digest context generation steps
Validates workflow YAML structure

Key Features¶

Add Manual Triggers

from src.workflow_refactor import WorkflowRefactorer

refactorer = WorkflowRefactorer()

# Add workflow_dispatch to all workflows
for workflow in refactorer.list_workflows():
    refactorer.add_workflow_dispatch(workflow)

Ensure Self-Hosted Runners

# Update all jobs to use [self-hosted, linux]
result = refactorer.ensure_self_hosted_runner(workflow_path)
# Returns: {"modified": True, "jobs_updated": ["build", "test"]}

Add Context Generation

# Add codex_digest step to workflows
refactorer.add_codex_digest_step(workflow_path)

Batch Refactoring

from src.workflow_refactor import refactor_workflows

# Refactor all workflows
results = refactor_workflows(
    add_dispatch=True,
    ensure_self_hosted=True,
    add_digest=False
)
# Returns summary of changes

Validation¶

# Validate workflow after changes
validation = refactorer.validate_workflow(workflow_path)
# Returns: {"valid": True, "has_workflow_dispatch": True, "compliance": True}

Benefits¶

✅ Manual gating prevents unintended CI runs
✅ Cost control with self-hosted runners
✅ Automated workflow refactoring
✅ Validation ensures correctness
✅ Context generation for agents

Phase 5: AI Agent Tooling Enhancement ✅¶

Problem¶

No automated context distillation for agents
Large codebase difficult for agents to understand
Manual context summarization time-consuming
No token budget management

Solution¶

File: src/context_distiller.py (12.1KB, 420 lines)

Context Distillation Tool¶

ContextDistiller - Compresses codebase into agent-friendly digest
Scans src/, codex_ml/, agents/ directories
Extracts code structure (classes, functions, imports)
Generates markdown digest with module map
Optional sentencepiece compression
Token budget management

Key Features¶

Automatic Scanning

from src.context_distiller import ContextDistiller

distiller = ContextDistiller(max_tokens=100000)

# Scan codebase
files = distiller.scan_codebase()
# Returns: {"code": [paths...], "docs": [paths...], "configs": [paths...]}

Structure Extraction

# Extract code structure
structure = distiller.extract_code_structure(file_path)
# Returns: {
# "path": "src/module.py",
# "lines": 250,
# "classes": ["MyClass", "AnotherClass"],
# "functions": ["my_func", "helper"],
# "imports": ["os", "pathlib", "typing"]
# }

Generate Digest

# Generate markdown digest
digest = distiller.generate_digest()

# Save to file
digest_path = distiller.save_digest()
# Saves to digest.md with checksum

Convenience Function

from src.context_distiller import generate_context_digest

# One-line digest generation
digest_path = generate_context_digest(
    output_path=Path("context.md"),
    max_tokens=50000
)

Digest Format¶

# Codebase Context Digest

Optional Sentencepiece Compression¶

# Compress with sentencepiece tokenization
compressed = distiller.compress_with_sentencepiece(
    content,
    model_path=Path("models/spm.model")
)

Benefits¶

✅ Automatic context generation for agents
✅ Token budget management
✅ Code structure extraction
✅ Module mapping
✅ Markdown output format
✅ Optional compression with sentencepiece

Integration Example¶

All three phases work together:

# Phase 3: Load configuration
from src.codex_init import load_config

config = load_config("model/base")

# Phase 4: Refactor workflows
from src.workflow_refactor import refactor_workflows

workflow_results = refactor_workflows(add_dispatch=True)

# Phase 5: Generate context for agents
from src.context_distiller import generate_context_digest

digest_path = generate_context_digest()

print(f"Configuration loaded from: {config.get('source')}")
print(f"Workflows refactored: {workflow_results['dispatch_added']}")
print(f"Context digest: {digest_path}")
