NPPS Leadership Team

[Torre Wenaus <wenaus AT gmail.com>]

A heads up on something I added to the agenda...

• MCP is moving fast, Tadashi already has a PanDA demonstrator, which we will learn from in implementing services in the ePIC streaming workflow testbed. As we define APIs and services for the testbed, we want to make them MCP-capable from the beginning.

• question is, what LLM to use? Claude costs money. We have our own GPU box, npps0.bnl.gov. Can we set up a reverse proxied service serving the BNL network? The BNL network is not enough, but it’s a start until there’s something else (general CERN service, but doesn’t help EIC; a means of paying for a cloud service, impossible at BNL and may get quickly expensive anyway; …)

this is a question to (at least) Brett: Dmitri Smirnov points to such a service Brett helped him set up long ago, https://www.cnipol.bnl.gov . Can we set up an nppsbot.bnl.gov service in the same mold (unless someone has a better idea)
