# Sentry AI agent connections and job ideas

Build a Sentry AI agent for recurring reliability work: review production errors, compare releases, assemble incident evidence, and prepare the small set of findings that need engineering attention.

Canonical HTML guide: https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/sentry

## How to connect

MCP, CLI, API, and SDK options provide capabilities. A skill provides operating guidance only; it does not authenticate to or grant access to the service.

### Sentry Web API (API)

- Source: Official
- Documentation: https://docs.sentry.io/api/
- Best for: Issue, event, project, release, and organization review workflows
- Capability: Generally stable public endpoints for querying Sentry platform data, including issues and their event evidence.
- Authentication: Bearer token from an internal integration or user token with only the read scopes required by the chosen endpoints
- Recommendation: Preferred starting point
- Setup reference: Use the organization region's API domain and a narrow project-owned wrapper for the approved GET endpoints.
- Operating note: Start with event:read or project:read as required. Environment and date filters narrow the query, while the token and project membership determine actual access.

## Agent job ideas

### Production-error impact review

Rank new and regressing production issues using observed Sentry evidence, approved business context, and existing Linear coverage.

- Services: [Sentry](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/sentry.md) + [Linear](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/linear.md)
- Expected output: Error review artifact
- Full tutorial: https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/workflows/review-production-errors-by-customer-impact

### Release regression watch

Compare errors across approved release windows and flag regressions with exact issue, event, and release evidence.

- Services: [Sentry](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/sentry.md) + [GitHub](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/github.md) + [Linear](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/linear.md)
- Expected output: Regression brief

### Incident evidence pack

Collect bounded Sentry events, repository and deployment context, approved incident discussion, and existing action coverage for review.

- Services: [Sentry](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/sentry.md) + [GitHub](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/github.md) + [Slack](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/slack.md) + [Linear](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/linear.md)
- Expected output: Postmortem artifact
- Full tutorial: https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/workflows/prepare-evidence-backed-incident-postmortems

### Error ownership triage

Find recurring unowned issues, compare existing engineering coverage, and propose the smallest accountable queue.

- Services: [Sentry](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/sentry.md) + [Linear](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/linear.md)
- Expected output: Ownership proposal

### Customer-impact exception queue

Separate observed users from approved account context and surface issues whose business impact needs human judgment.

- Services: [Sentry](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/sentry.md) + [Notion](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/notion.md) + [Linear](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/linear.md)
- Expected output: Impact exception queue

### Reliability trend brief

Summarize declared issue and event measures across a fixed window while preserving instrumentation gaps and incomparable projects.

- Services: [Sentry](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/sentry.md) + [Slack](https://agentuse.io/ai-agents/tools/slack.md)
- Expected output: Reliability brief

## Implementation guidance for coding agents

1. Inspect the project for its installed or pinned AgentUse version and existing `.agentuse` files.
2. Load the version-matched AgentUse core, creator, and tester guidance before authoring an agent.
3. Verify which MCP servers, CLIs, APIs, SDKs, credentials, and resource IDs actually exist. Do not infer capabilities from this page.
4. Choose the smallest connection and permission set that can complete the job. Prefer read-only access for research and reporting.
5. Mechanically approval-gate consequential writes such as posting, sending, deleting, merging, or changing external records.
6. Test manually before adding a schedule or verified webhook trigger.

## Operating boundary

Safe automatic work: Read approved Sentry projects and environments, paginate the defined issue and event windows, calculate declared trends, compare tracker coverage, and save a sourced review artifact.

Never without the configured approval path: Resolve, merge, delete, assign, or otherwise mutate Sentry issues; modify code; deploy a fix; or equate observed users with paying customers without an approved mapping.
