A tool for diagnosing failed RPM builds from their build logs and related package files. RPM is a package format used by Red Hat-based Linux systems.

It helps investigate failed builds using logs, spec files, source archives, or build-service URLs.

It turns lengthy build output into a likely cause and practical next steps.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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	$0.00009	$0.01415
Opus 5	$0.00005	$0.00707
Sonnet 5	$0.00002	$0.00283
Haiku 4.5	$0.00001	$0.00142

Security

Grade A, and why

rpm-examine scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 9d ago.

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.

Name

odh-ai-helpers:rpm-examine

Synopsis

/rpm:examine <copr-chroot-url>
/rpm:examine <build-log-url> <srpm-url>
/rpm:examine <build.log> <specfile|dist-git> [sources]

Description

Analyze RPM build.log failures. Provide a comprehensive analysis with error summary, root cause, and actionable fixes.

Mode 1: Copr Results URL or Direct URLs to build.log and SRPM

Provide a single Copr build results URL to automatically fetch all build artifacts or provide two URLs - one for build.log and one for SRPM.

What gets downloaded:

build-live.log.gz or build.log - Main build log
*.src.rpm - Source RPM containing spec file, sources, and patches
root.log.gz, state.log - Additional context logs (optional)

Mode 2: Local Files

Provide paths to local build artifacts.

Arguments:

<build.log> - Path to build log file (required)
<specfile|dist-git> - Path to spec file or dist-git repo clone (required)
[sources] - Path to source tarball or unpacked sources (optional)

Context gathering: If sources not provided, search in:

build.log parent directory
specfile parent directory
dist-git clone directory

Implementation

1. Input Detection

If single URL: Copr results directory → continue to step 2a
If two URLs: Direct URLs to build.log and SRPM (Koji/Brew) → download both directly, then follow 2a steps 3-5
If local path(s): Local workflow → continue to step 2b

2. Artifact Collection

2a. URL Workflow

Create temporary working directory

Download files from Copr URL:

curl -LO <copr-url>/builder-live.log.gz
curl -LO <copr-url>/*.src.rpm
curl -LO <copr-url>/root.log.gz      # optional
curl -LO <copr-url>/state.log        # optional

Decompress logs: gunzip *.log.gz (if needed)
Extract SRPM: rpm2cpio *.src.rpm | cpio -idmv
Locate extracted spec file

2b. Local Workflow

Verify build.log exists and is readable
Verify specfile/dist-git path exists
Search for sources if not provided:
- Check build.log parent directory for *.tar.* or *.src.rpm
- Check specfile parent directory
- If dist-git repo, check for sources in repo

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.

rpm-examine is a skill published in the GitHub repository opendatahub-io/ai-helpers (37 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 9 tokens to every session and 1,415 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
