[INFRA-879] feat(plane-enterprise): add a Pi agent-run worker - #313
Saurabhkmr98 wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
Pi's native agent runs move to their own Celery queue, `plane_pi_agent_queue`, so an interactive run never waits behind a multi-hour vectorization task on the shared queue. This adds the worker that drains it. New `pi_agent_worker` values block (disabled by default) and its deployment template, plus Rancher questions and README rows. Enabling it narrows `pi_worker` to `plane_pi_queue` automatically — the general worker's template derives its CELERY_QUEUE from whether the agent worker is running, so there is no second value to change in step. Left disabled, no CELERY_QUEUE is emitted and the image entrypoint's default (both queues) applies, so behavior is unchanged. Requires makeplane/plane-ee#9440, which adds the queue and routes the task. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
WalkthroughThe Helm chart adds an optional dedicated Plane AI agent worker. It configures separate Celery queues, worker resources, secrets, telemetry, scheduling, and deployment settings. ChangesPlane AI worker queue separation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Enabling the dedicated agent worker can fail to preserve queue isolation when an installation sets reserved CELERY_* names through extraEnv, causing workers to consume unintended queues or use unintended worker limits. Reorder or reject those overrides before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

site:kubernetes.io Kubernetes container env duplicate variable names order precedence EnvVar
💡 Result:
In Kubernetes, when multiple environment variables are defined with the same name, or when they are defined through different mechanisms, the following precedence rules apply: 1. Explicitly defined env variables take precedence: Values defined directly in the container's env field will override any values for the same variable name provided via envFrom (ConfigMaps or Secrets) [1]. 2. envFrom precedence: When envFrom is used, if the same key exists in multiple sources (ConfigMaps or Secrets), the value associated with the last source in the list takes precedence [1]. 3. Container image defaults: Environment variables explicitly defined in the Pod specification (using either env or envFrom) override any environment variables specified in the container image itself [2][3][4]. 4. Order and dependency: Within the env list, variables can reference other variables using the $(VAR_NAME) syntax [5][2]. Because these references are expanded based on the environment state at that moment, order matters: a variable can only reference another variable if the latter has been defined earlier in the list [5]. In summary, for duplicate names, the last definition in the configuration order generally wins, with the specific env field acting as the highest priority override over envFrom sources [1].

Render extraEnv before the worker-specific CELERY_* entries. When extraEnv contains these names, both deployments render duplicate environment variables. Kubernetes uses the later entry, so extraEnv can override CELERY_QUEUE in pi-worker and CELERY_QUEUE, CELERY_CONCURRENCY, or CELERY_MAX_TASKS_PER_CHILD in pi-agent-worker. Move extraEnv before these entries, or reject the reserved names.

What
Adds a dedicated Celery worker for Pi's native agent runs to
charts/plane-enterprise(3.5.8→3.5.9), and teaches the existingpi-workerto step aside when it is running.templates/workloads/pi-agent-worker.deployment.yaml, gated onand .Values.services.pi.enabled .Values.services.pi_agent_worker.enabled. Cloned frompi-worker, so it keeps the same s3-CA init script, pod/container security contexts, scheduling helpers andenvFrombundles.pi-worker.deployment.yamlnow emits a conditionalCELERY_QUEUE.values.yaml: newservices.pi_agent_workerblock (enabled: false) andservices.pi_worker.queueName.questions.ymlandREADME.mdrows for the new keys.The queue selection for the general worker:
{{- $piWorkerQueue := .Values.services.pi_worker.queueName | default (ternary "plane_pi_queue" "" (default false (.Values.services.pi_agent_worker).enabled)) }}...folded into the existing
env:guard so the block still renders forextraEnv, the s3 CA vars and otel on their own.Why
Pi had one queue,
plane_pi_queue, consumed by one worker atconcurrency=2. Native agent runs shared it withvectorize_workspaceand friends, which run for minutes to hours. With Celery'sworker_prefetch_multiplier=1, two of those occupy the whole worker while an agent run — the interactive path, with a person watching the run's activities appear — waits behind them.makeplane/plane-ee#9440moves agent runs ontoplane_pi_agent_queue. This is the chart side: the worker that drains it.Scope / behavior
No default behavior change.
services.pi_agent_worker.enableddefaults tofalse, so ahelm upgradewith no value changes renders exactly what it does today — onepi-worker, and noCELERY_QUEUEenv at all, which means the image entrypoint's default (both queues) applies.Enabling it isolates
pi-workerautomatically. That worker'sCELERY_QUEUEis derived from whether the agent worker is enabled, so an operator flips one value rather than two and cannot half-apply the change. An explicitservices.pi_worker.queueNamestill wins.The agent worker is an addition, never a replacement.
pi-workermust keep running or vector sync, docs sync, plan sync, search indexing and memory extraction go unconsumed.extract_chat_memory, which an agent run dispatches on completion, deliberately stays on the general queue so a saturated agent worker cannot also stall memory extraction.Gated on
services.pi.enabledas well, so a deployment without Pi is unaffected regardless of the new flag. Intentionally not touched:pi-beat-worker,pi-api,pi-migrator, and every non-Pi workload.Testing
Verified with
helm template(viaalpine/helm:3.14.0).helm lint charts/plane-enterprisepasses.services.pi.enabled=true, agent worker off (the upgrade path):services.pi.enabled=true --set services.pi_agent_worker.enabled=true:Upgrade notes
None required. To adopt the isolation, set
services.pi_agent_worker.enabled=trueand leavepi_workerin place. Requires an image containingmakeplane/plane-ee#9440; on an older image the agent queue is simply never published to, and the narrowedpi-workerkeeps drainingplane_pi_queueas before.Related
