DeepOps is a collection of automation tools for deploying and managing compute clusters that use NVIDIA GPUs with Kubernetes or Slurm. It supports environments ranging from full data-center clusters to individual machines needing GPU drivers, Docker, and NVIDIA container support.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.02070 | $0.02070 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00828 | $0.00828 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00414 | $0.00414 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00207 | $0.00207 |
Grade A, and why
deepops AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 163 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
DeepOps agent operating guide
This file is the entry point for AI agents (and new humans) operating this repository. DeepOps deploys and manages GPU clusters — Slurm or Kubernetes on NVIDIA GPU servers — using Ansible. Everything here is driven by playbooks against an inventory you control; there is no server component.
Load only what the task needs: this file for orientation and the golden
paths, docs/ for depth, skills/ for step-by-step procedures with failure
handling.
Repository map
| Path | Purpose |
|---|---|
playbooks/ |
Entry points. slurm-cluster.yml and k8s-cluster.yml are the two top-level cluster deploys; subdirectories hold component playbooks. |
roles/ |
Ansible roles (NVIDIA drivers, container toolkit, DGX software, monitoring, Slurm, storage). |
config.example/ |
Template configuration. Copy to config/ and edit; never edit config.example/ for a deployment. |
config/ |
Your site configuration and inventory (git-ignored; created by you). |
scripts/validation/ |
Machine-readable preflight and post-deploy validation. Start here to know if anything worked. |
scripts/ |
Setup and helper scripts (setup.sh installs Ansible and dependencies). |
submodules/kubespray |
Kubernetes deployment engine. Must be initialized before Kubernetes work. |
docs/ |
Topic documentation: deepops/, slurm-cluster/, k8s-cluster/, container/, airgap/. |
skills/ |
Reusable agent procedures with preconditions, commands, expected output, and failure branches. |
First-time setup (once per provisioning machine)
git submodule update --init --recursive
./scripts/setup.sh # installs Ansible + Galaxy dependencies
cp -r config.example config # then edit config/inventory
python3 scripts/validation/deepops_doctor.py --json # verify before deploying
The doctor must report "ok": true (or you must understand every failure)
before you run any cluster playbook. With --remote it also proves SSH
reachability to every inventory host.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

deepops AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository NVIDIA/deepops (1,485 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed BSD-3-Clause. It adds 2,070 tokens to every session, about $0.0083 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
