Sentry Ecosystem
Sentry is the error tracking and release-health route when the work is about exceptions, issue triage, source maps, releases, alerts, performance traces, or SDK instrumentation. Source: Ecosystem Capability Coverage, 2026-06-27; Skill Resolver, 2026-06-27
When To Use This
Use Sentry when user-visible failures need issue grouping, stack traces, release association, source maps, or alerting. Use general observability pages for telemetry strategy, but route implementation and triage through Sentry-specific tools when Sentry is named. Source: Skill Resolver, 2026-06-27
Decision Matrix
| Need | Route | Verification |
|---|---|---|
| Inspect issues | Sentry MCP | Issue ID, project, release |
| SDK setup | Sentry plugin skills | Captured test event |
| Releases/source maps | sentry-cli |
Release artifact visible in Sentry |
| Fix workflow | Sentry workflow skills | Before/after issue state |
Core Model
Sentry connects runtime errors to release context. It is not a generic logs warehouse. It should answer "what user-facing failure happened, in which release, and what code path produced it?" Source: Observability Architecture, 2026-06-27
Routing Summary
Preferred order: Sentry MCP for issue and alert reads, plugin skills for setup/workflow/code review, then sentry-cli for releases, source maps, debug files, and issue metadata. Source: Skill Resolver, 2026-06-27; config/capability-harvest-seeds.json
Failure Modes
- Instrumenting without release/source-map linkage.
- Treating logs as a substitute for grouped exceptions.
- Sending noisy alerts without ownership or runbook.
- Fixing an issue without proving the release path changed.
Verification Path
Run sentry-cli info or a read-only MCP lookup to confirm org/project. For instrumentation, send a test event and verify project, environment, release, and source-map resolution. Source: config/capability-harvest-seeds.json; Skill Resolver, 2026-06-27
