Awesome DevOps AI

A curated list of AI tools, agents, MCP servers, and resources for DevOps, SRE, and Platform Engineering.

The AI revolution is transforming how infrastructure is built, monitored, and operated. This list tracks every meaningful tool at the intersection of AI and DevOps, from coding agents that write Terraform to AI-powered incident response that pages you with a root cause already identified.

Why this list? Engineers are adopting AI tooling faster than any technology shift in history, but the landscape is fragmented across hundreds of repos, products, and frameworks. This is one place to find them all.

257 tools across 20 categories — updated March 2026. See the Quick Start Guide for role-based recommendations.

If this list is useful, please give it a star to help others find it.
