eks-anywhere-build-tooling vs. AWS
Per-engineer ETV for eks-anywhere-build-tooling against AWS as a whole. Both lines are 90-day rolling averages scaled to a 30-day month, so they share one axis and can be read against each other at any point. Pick a window to zoom the chart to it.
Performance Composition
Each month's output split by type of work: Features (new value), Maintenance (sustaining systems), Tests, Docs, and Fixes (rework). The yellow line is output per engineer, so when it rises each engineer is delivering more, whatever the team size did. Unit: Engineering Throughput Value (ETV).
Engineering capacity
Effective engineers behind eks-anywhere-build-tooling, against its pre-AI baseline. Each subject has its own: eks-anywhere-build-tooling's is 0.40 ETV / dev / mo, its first reading in Q1 2025. Per-engineer ETV divided by that gives a capacity multiple, and that multiple applied to the engineers active in the trailing 90 days turns it into engineer-equivalents. The line is the real headcount, so the gap between line and area is what the leverage is worth. Because each baseline is its own, every subject opens at 1.0x on its first day: multiples measure improvement and are not comparable between subjects.

- 1.7ETVAdd LLM-powered automatic patch fixing for version bumps (#5013) * Add LLM-powered automatic patch fixing for version bumps This commit introduces an intelligent patch fixing system that uses AWS Bedrock (Claude Sonnet 4.5) to automatically update patches when upstream versions change. Key Features: - Automatic patch conflict resolution using LLM analysis - Smart context extraction showing current vs expected file state - Pristine content capture before patch application for accurate context - Iterative fixing with up to 3 attempts per patch - Special handling for kubernetes/autoscaler project (cloud provider removal) - Rate limiting and cost tracking for Bedrock API calls - Comprehensive validation (semantic and build checks) Implementation Details: - Uses git apply --reject to identify conflicts and generate .rej files - Extracts ±50 lines of context around conflict points - Provides LLM with original patch intent and current file state - Validates generated patches match original semantic changes - Supports both release-branched and non-release-branched projects Special Cases: - kubernetes/autoscaler: Automated cloud provider removal and go mod tidy - Handles complex multi-file patches with mixed success/failure states - Preserves exact indentation and formatting from current files Prompt Engineering: - Explicit instructions to use current file content, not original patch context - Critical warnings about indentation matching (tabs vs spaces) - Structured format with metadata preservation - Context pruning for large patches to stay within token limits Core Components: - fixpatches.go: Main orchestration and patch application logic - llm.go: AWS Bedrock API integration with rate limiting - context.go: Smart context extraction from .rej files and pristine content - applier.go: Git operations for patch application and validation - validator.go: Semantic and build validation of fixed patches - autoscaler.go: Special handling for kubernetes/autoscaler project - types/fixpatches.go: Type definitions for patch context and results This enables automated maintenance of patches across version bumps, reducing manual effort and ensuring patches stay current with upstream changes.

- 1.0ETVfix: update stale CHECKSUMS on main (#5651) Checksums never came forward after the builder-base bump, so validate-checksums fails on any PR touching these projects. Most values are forward-ported from release-0.26. cloud-provider-aws 1-30..1-34 were stale on both branches, so those take the values the presubmits actually compute. Skipped 11 files whose projects also drifted on GIT_TAG, GOLANG_VERSION, patches or Makefile — those need a real rebuild, not a copy. prometheus stays out too: its presubmit builds on the AL2023 base, so it needs #5630 first.
