Sentry Monitoring

What it does

The Sentry Monitoring skill allows AI agents to interact with your Sentry account for error tracking, performance monitoring, release management, and project configuration. It provides a more efficient way to access Sentry data compared to direct API calls by providing pre-built tools and progressive disclosure of features. This skill requires an active Sentry account and optionally uses environment variables (SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN, SENTRY_ORG, SENTRY_PROJECT) for authentication and project selection.

When to use it

• Troubleshooting application errors: Quickly identify and investigate recent issues or errors reported by Sentry.
• Monitoring performance bottlenecks: Analyze transaction performance, slow queries, and other metrics to optimize your application's speed.
• Managing software releases: List existing releases, create new ones, and associate commits with specific release versions.
• Reviewing project configuration: View project settings and alert rules within your Sentry account.

Key capabilities

• Error Tracking: Listing recent issues, retrieving detailed issue information, resolving issues, and ignoring/snoozing issues.
• Performance Monitoring: Listing performance transactions, getting transaction summaries, and identifying slow database queries.
• Release Management: Listing releases, creating new releases, and associating commits with releases.
• Project Configuration: Listing projects, viewing project settings, and listing alert rules.
• Progressive disclosure of features for efficient context management.

Example prompts

• "List the most recent unresolved issues in Sentry."
• "Get detailed information about issue number 12345 from Sentry."
• "Create a new release called 'v1.2.3' and associate commits with it."

Tips & gotchas

• Sentry Account Required: You need an active Sentry account to use this skill.
• Environment Variables: While optional, setting SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN, SENTRY_ORG, and SENTRY_PROJECT environment variables simplifies interaction with your specific Sentry configuration.
• Confirmation Needed: Some actions (like resolving or ignoring issues, creating releases, and associating commits) require confirmation from the agent.
