In July 2025, Liu Haopeng developed the foundational MCP Server groundwork for the apache/bigtop-manager repository, focusing on enabling AI-augmented capabilities within the platform. He implemented core infrastructure for prompt handling and request routing, introducing new configurations, interceptors, and utility classes using Java, YAML, and Spring Boot. This work established a dedicated prompt file path and integrated model-centric programming support, positioning the project for future AI-driven enhancements. Liu’s contributions addressed backend development and configuration management, laying a robust technical foundation for scalable prompt integration and model-centric tooling, though the scope was limited to initial feature delivery without bug fixes during this period.
