Evaluation

BitFlux has a free solution to evaluate existing workloads running on Ubuntu EC2 instances with the goal of predicting the best EC2 instance size to use with BitFlux. Using the bitflux_mcp server most AI agents can run a controller experiment with some scaffolding see: https://github.com/bitflux-ai/examples

Install the BitFlux Evaluator

Running the following on a AWS EC2 instance running Ubuntu 24.04 will install a service called bitfluxeval using a .deb package.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://apt.bitflux.ai/install_eval.sh | bash

The bitfluxeval service will monitor your system and register with the BitFlux cloud service. To uninstall simply run

sudo apt remove bitfluxeval

Install the BitFlux MCP server

The MCP server is installed on your local workstation in one of several ways. bitflux_mcp Note that some features require you have aws credentials configured to interact with AWS.

It has been tested with Windsurf, Cursor, and AMP.

See bitflux_mcp for detailed installation instructions.

Using the MCP server with an AI agent

AI agents can use bitflux_mcp to list available EC2 instances running a BitFlux AMI or the bitfluxeval service, query them for memory usage statistics, and make recommendations for instance size.
