Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: failed

    Runs code fetched at install time in 3 places.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned getsentry/sentry-for-ai at f2792883d4.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows you to create Sentry alerts programmatically. It automates the process of setting up and configuring alert rules within your Sentry environment, enabling proactive monitoring and rapid response to potential issues. You can define conditions based on events, metrics, and other factors to trigger notifications when specific thresholds are met.

When to use it

  • Automated Incident Response: Automatically create alerts when new services or environments are deployed to ensure immediate monitoring.
  • Dynamic Thresholds: Generate alerts that adapt to changing system behavior by setting up rules based on metrics and event patterns.
  • Custom Monitoring: Define highly specific alert conditions beyond the standard Sentry offerings, tailored to unique application needs.
  • Bulk Alert Creation: Quickly create multiple alerts with consistent configurations for new projects or teams.

Key capabilities

  • Create Sentry alert rules
  • Define alert conditions based on events and metrics
  • Configure notification channels (email, Slack, etc.)
  • Automate alert rule creation workflows

Example prompts

  • "Create a Sentry alert that triggers when error rate exceeds 5%."
  • "Generate an alert for new errors in the production environment."
  • “Set up a Sentry alert to notify me if CPU usage goes above 80%.”

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires you to have appropriate permissions within your Sentry organization. Ensure that the AI agent has access tokens or credentials configured correctly to interact with your Sentry instance.
