Sentry Error Diagnosis and Triage

v20260515
sentry-triage
This tool automates the diagnosis of production errors tracked by Sentry. By leveraging the Composio CLI, it retrieves comprehensive issue details, full stack traces, breadcrumbs, and associated commits. It maps stack frames to local source code, allowing agents to propose fixes and triage issues directly, eliminating manual copy-pasting.

Overview

Sentry Triage

Pull Sentry issues, events, and suspect commits straight into the agent via the Composio CLI. Skip the copy-paste-stack-trace dance.

When to Use

  • New Sentry alert and you want the agent to investigate, not just quote the subject line.
  • Diagnosing a regression: find the releases, suspect commit, and affected files.
  • Building a "top 10 unresolved issues" digest with reproduction hints.

Prereqs

curl -fsSL https://composio.dev/install | bash
composio login
composio link sentry        # auth token with event:read + project:read

Discover Tools

composio search "get sentry issue" --toolkits sentry
composio search "list events for issue" --toolkits sentry
composio tools list sentry

Common slugs (verify with --get-schema):

  • SENTRY_GET_AN_ISSUE
  • SENTRY_LIST_AN_ISSUES_EVENTS
  • SENTRY_RETRIEVE_AN_EVENT_FOR_A_PROJECT
  • SENTRY_LIST_A_PROJECTS_ISSUES
  • SENTRY_UPDATE_AN_ISSUE

Diagnose a Single Issue

  1. Fetch the issue (by short ID like PROJ-1F4 or numeric ID):
    composio execute SENTRY_GET_AN_ISSUE -d '{"issue_id":"PROJ-1F4"}'
    
  2. Grab the latest event with full stack + breadcrumbs:
    composio execute SENTRY_LIST_AN_ISSUES_EVENTS \
      -d '{"issue_id":"PROJ-1F4","full":true,"limit":1}'
    
  3. Map each frame to local source. For each filename + lineno in the stack, the agent opens the file and reads ±20 lines. No manual copy-paste.
  4. Check suspect commits (Sentry attaches these when release tracking is set up) — open them with git show <sha> locally.
  5. Propose a fix with a diff, run tests, and — once green — mark the issue resolved:
    composio execute SENTRY_UPDATE_AN_ISSUE \
      -d '{"issue_id":"PROJ-1F4","status":"resolved","statusDetails":{"inNextRelease":true}}'
    

Triage a Batch

composio execute SENTRY_LIST_A_PROJECTS_ISSUES -d '{
  "organization_slug":"acme",
  "project_slug":"api",
  "query":"is:unresolved age:-24h",
  "sort":"freq",
  "limit":20
}'

Pipe into jq for a ranked summary:

composio execute SENTRY_LIST_A_PROJECTS_ISSUES -d '{"organization_slug":"acme","project_slug":"api","query":"is:unresolved"}' \
  | jq -r '.[] | "\(.count)\t\(.shortId)\t\(.title)"' | sort -rn | head

Workflow File

scripts/sentry-diag.ts, run with composio run --file scripts/sentry-diag.ts -- --id PROJ-1F4:

const id = process.argv[process.argv.indexOf("--id") + 1];

const issue = await execute("SENTRY_GET_AN_ISSUE", { issue_id: id });
const [event] = await execute("SENTRY_LIST_AN_ISSUES_EVENTS", {
  issue_id: id, full: true, limit: 1
});

const frames = (event?.entries ?? [])
  .filter(e => e.type === "exception")
  .flatMap(e => e.data.values.flatMap(v => v.stacktrace?.frames ?? []))
  .filter(f => f.inApp)
  .map(f => ({ file: f.filename, line: f.lineno, fn: f.function }));

console.log(JSON.stringify({ title: issue.title, culprit: issue.culprit, frames }, null, 2));

The agent then reads each file at line ± 20 and drafts a patch.

Route to Linear / Slack

Chain tools to open a ticket for the top unresolved issue:

composio run '
  const [top] = await execute("SENTRY_LIST_A_PROJECTS_ISSUES", {
    organization_slug: "acme", project_slug: "api",
    query: "is:unresolved", sort: "freq", limit: 1
  });
  await execute("LINEAR_CREATE_ISSUE", {
    teamId: "TEAM_ID",
    title: `[Sentry] ${top.title}`,
    description: `Short ID: ${top.shortId}\nPermalink: ${top.permalink}\nCount: ${top.count}`
  });
'

Troubleshooting

  • 404 on issue_id → use the short ID (PROJ-1F4), not the URL slug.
  • Empty events → the issue was resolved/archived; query with query:"is:resolved" or bump limit.
  • Missing suspect commit → release tracking isn't configured in Sentry; set up sentry-cli releases in CI.
  • No inApp frames → source maps not uploaded; stack will only show vendor code.
