summary

Inspect Sentry issues, summarize production errors, and pull health data via the Sentry API (read-only). Use when user says "check Sentry", "what errors in production?", "summarize Sentry issues", "recent crashes", or "production error report". Requires SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN. Do NOT use for setting up Sentry SDK, configuring alerts, or non-Sentry error monitoring.

Sentry (Read-only Observability)

Quick start

  • If not already authenticated, ask the user to provide a valid SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN (read-only scopes such as project:read, event:read) or to log in and create one before running commands.
  • Set SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN as an env var.
  • Optional defaults: SENTRY_ORG, SENTRY_PROJECT, SENTRY_BASE_URL.
  • Defaults: org/project {your-org}/{your-project}, time range 24h, environment prod, limit 20 (max 50).
  • Always call the Sentry API (no heuristics, no caching).

If the token is missing, give the user these steps:

  1. Create a Sentry auth token: https://sentry.io/settings/account/api/auth-tokens/
  2. Create a token with read-only scopes such as project:read, event:read, and org:read.
  3. Set SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN as an environment variable in their system.
  4. Offer to guide them through setting the environment variable for their OS/shell if needed.
  • Never ask the user to paste the full token in chat. Ask them to set it locally and confirm when ready.

Core tasks (use bundled script)

Use scripts/sentry_api.py for deterministic API calls. It handles pagination and retries once on transient errors.

Skill path (set once)

export AGENT_SKILLS_HOME="${AGENT_SKILLS_HOME:-$HOME/.agent-skills}"
export SENTRY_API="$AGENT_SKILLS_HOME/skills/sentry/scripts/sentry_api.py"

User-scoped skills install under $AGENT_SKILLS_HOME/skills (default: ~/.agent-skills/skills).

1) List issues (ordered by most recent)

python3 "$SENTRY_API" \
  list-issues \
  --org {your-org} \
  --project {your-project} \
  --environment prod \
  --time-range 24h \
  --limit 20 \
  --query "is:unresolved"

2) Resolve an issue short ID to issue ID

python3 "$SENTRY_API" \
  list-issues \
  --org {your-org} \
  --project {your-project} \
  --query "ABC-123" \
  --limit 1

Use the returned id for issue detail or events.

3) Issue detail

python3 "$SENTRY_API" \
  issue-detail \
  1234567890

4) Issue events

python3 "$SENTRY_API" \
  issue-events \
  1234567890 \
  --limit 20

5) Event detail (no stack traces by default)

python3 "$SENTRY_API" \
  event-detail \
  --org {your-org} \
  --project {your-project} \
  abcdef1234567890

API requirements

Always use these endpoints (GET only):

  • List issues: /api/0/projects/{org_slug}/{project_slug}/issues/
  • Issue detail: /api/0/issues/{issue_id}/
  • Events for issue: /api/0/issues/{issue_id}/events/
  • Event detail: /api/0/projects/{org_slug}/{project_slug}/events/{event_id}/

Inputs and defaults

  • org_slug, project_slug: default to {your-org}/{your-project} (avoid non-prod orgs).
  • time_range: default 24h (pass as statsPeriod).
  • environment: default prod.
  • limit: default 20, max 50 (paginate until limit reached).
  • search_query: optional query parameter.
  • issue_short_id: resolve via list-issues query first.

Output formatting rules

  • Issue list: show title, short_id, status, first_seen, last_seen, count, environments, top_tags; order by most recent.
  • Event detail: include culprit, timestamp, environment, release, url.
  • If no results, state explicitly.
  • Redact PII in output (emails, IPs). Do not print raw stack traces.
  • Never echo auth tokens.

Golden test inputs

  • Org: {your-org}
  • Project: {your-project}
  • Issue short ID: {ABC-123}

Example prompt: “List the top 10 open issues for prod in the last 24h.” Expected: ordered list with titles, short IDs, counts, last seen.

how to use sentry

How to use sentry on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

1

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

  • Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
  • Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with node --version)
  • Active project directory or workspace where you want to add sentry
2

Execute installation command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/tech-leads-club/agent-skills --skill sentry

The skills CLI fetches sentry from GitHub repository tech-leads-club/agent-skills and configures it for Cursor.

3

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:

◆ Which agents do you want to install to?
│ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ── always included ────
│ • Amp
│ • Antigravity
│ • Cline
│ • Codex
│ ●Cursor(selected)
│ • Cursor
│ • Windsurf
4

Verify installation

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:

.cursor/skills/sentry

Reload or restart Cursor to activate sentry. Access the skill through slash commands (e.g., /sentry) or your agent's skill management interface.

Security & Verification Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your development environment. Always verify the publisher's identity, review recent commits, and test in isolated environments before production deployment.

Implementation Guide

Prerequisites

  • Claude Desktop or compatible AI client with skill support
  • Clear understanding of task or problem to solve
  • Willingness to iterate and refine outputs

Time Estimate

15-45 minutes depending on use case complexity

Installation Steps

  1. 1.Install skill using provided installation command
  2. 2.Test with simple use case relevant to your work
  3. 3.Evaluate output quality and relevance
  4. 4.Iterate on prompts to improve results
  5. 5.Integrate into regular workflow if valuable

Common Pitfalls

  • Expecting perfect results without iteration
  • Not providing enough context in prompts
  • Using skill for tasks outside its intended scope
  • Accepting outputs without review and validation

Best Practices

✓ Do

  • +Start with clear, specific prompts
  • +Provide relevant context and constraints
  • +Review and refine all outputs before using
  • +Iterate to improve output quality
  • +Document successful prompt patterns

✗ Don't

  • Don't use without understanding skill limitations
  • Don't skip validation of outputs
  • Don't share sensitive information in prompts
  • Don't expect skill to replace human judgment

💡 Pro Tips

  • Be specific about desired format and style
  • Ask for multiple options to choose from
  • Request explanations to understand reasoning
  • Combine AI efficiency with human expertise

When to Use This

✓ Use When

Use when skill capabilities match your task, clear ROI on time saved, and you can validate outputs. Best for repetitive tasks, learning, and quality improvement.

✗ Avoid When

Avoid when task requires deep expertise you can't validate, involves sensitive decisions, or when learning process is more valuable than speed of completion.

Learning Path

  1. 1Familiarize yourself with skill capabilities and limitations
  2. 2Start with low-risk, non-critical tasks
  3. 3Progress to more complex and valuable use cases
  4. 4Build expertise through regular use and experimentation
