Key Concepts
| Concept | What It Means | |---------|---------------| | AAP | Ansible Automation Platform — Red Hat's enterprise automation controller | | Inventory | Collection of managed hosts organized by groups | | Job Template | Reusable playbook execution definition with parameters | | Project | SCM-backed collection of Ansible playbooks | | Ad-Hoc Command | One-off Ansible module execution against hosts | | Inventory Source | Dynamic inventory pulled from cloud/CMDB/external systems |
Workflow: Run a Playbook Against Inventory
- List inventories:
list_inventories— find the target inventory - List hosts:
list_hosts— verify target hosts are present - Find template:
list_job_templates— locate the playbook to run - Execute:
run_job— launch the job template with extra vars if needed - Monitor:
job_status— poll until completion - Review:
job_logs— check execution output - Report: Summarize success/failure per host
Workflow: Inventory Audit
- List inventories:
list_inventories— enumerate all inventories - For each inventory:
list_hosts— count and list hosts - Check failures:
get_failed_hosts— identify hosts with active failures - Get facts:
get_host_facts— verify host data is current - Cross-reference: Compare with NetBox or Nautobot source of truth
- Report: Inventory coverage, stale hosts, failed hosts
Workflow: Project SCM Sync
- List projects:
list_projects— find the project - Sync:
update_project— trigger SCM pull - Monitor:
get_project_update— check sync status - Review logs:
get_project_update_logs— verify no errors - Report: Sync success/failure, last commit pulled
Integration with Other Skills
| Skill | How They Work Together |
|-------|----------------------|
| aap-eda | AAP job execution + EDA event-driven triggers |
| aap-lint | Validate playbooks before running them through AAP |
| netbox-reconcile | Cross-reference AAP inventories with NetBox DCIM |
| nautobot-sot | AAP inventory validation against Nautobot IPAM |
| servicenow-change-workflow | ServiceNow CR gating before AAP job execution |
| github-ops | Commit playbooks and inventory changes to Git |
| pyats-health-check | Device health verification before/after AAP automation |
| gait-session-tracking | Audit trail for all AAP operations |
Environment Variables
AAP_URL— AAP Controller API endpoint (e.g.,https://aap.example.com/api/controller/v2)AAP_TOKEN— AAP API token (Write scope)
Important Rules
- Job execution changes infrastructure — always verify the target inventory and template before running
- ServiceNow CR — gate job execution behind change requests in production
- Record in GAIT — log all AAP operations for audit trail
- SSL handling — self-signed certificates are automatically handled for lab environments

testing
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Human-in-the-loop escalation via HumanRail — route low-confidence agent decisions, pre-destructive operation approvals, and ambiguous incident tickets to real human engineers. Human answers are verified and returned as structured output. Workers are paid via Lightning Network. Use when the agent is uncertain, when a destructive change needs explicit human sign-off beyond a ServiceNow CR, or when an ambiguous ticket requires human triage before automated handling.
