Demo of the debughost sub-command of sysgrok. This sub-command takes a host and a problem description then it:

  1. Queries the LLM for commands to run that may generate information useful in debugging the problem.
  2. Connects to the host via ssh and executes the commands
  3. Uses the LLM to summarise the output of each command, individually.
  4. Concatenates the summaries and passes them to the LLM to ask for a report on the likely source of the problem the user is facing.
