GSoC 2026: Yash Bhanushali - AI Chatbot to Guide User Workflow

Hello Jenkins Community,

My name is Yash Bhanushali, and I am applying for the “AI Chatbot to Guide User Workflow” project for GSoC 2026.

Over the past few weeks, I have been getting familiar with the Jenkins ecosystem and exploring its breadth and capabilities. As part of this, I took a deep dive into the Resource Bot and also proposed an enhancement(#PR) for it. In parallel, I have been working on a proof of concept for this project focusing on a multi-agent, agentic architecture that goes beyond traditional chatbot approaches.

My prior experience in building production-level agentic systems has helped me shape an initial design for this solution. I am sharing my preliminary proposal(submitted for review) and would greatly appreciate feedback and suggestions from the community.

Draft: GSoC 2026 Project Proposal: AI Chatbot to Guide User Workflow - Google Docs

Will keep you posted on my progress.
