# Sentry L4 · Runs on its own

Sentry is an error and performance monitoring service.

**Can an AI agent use Sentry? Yes, in a browser.** Our agent got into Sentry on its own in 3 minutes and did 9 of its 10 core tasks.

Category: Observability · Connects by: MCP, API, CLI, SDK · Agent payments: None found · Driven: 1 Nov 2026

**How to connect**
- MCP server URL: `https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp` (streamable HTTP, tested in our drive). Source: https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp
- CLI install: `npm install -g @sentry/wizard` (documented). Source: https://sentry.io/welcome/
- Docs page: `https://docs.sentry.io/` (tested in our drive). Source: https://docs.sentry.io/

**Level 4: Runs on its own.** An agent does the core work and can stop paying on its own.
- Got in by: Email and password (3 minutes, in a browser)
- Got as far as: Pay: reaches the checkout (Stopped at the $29 a month charge)
- To reach L5: Pay without a person.

## From finding it to leaving

What an agent managed without a person, at each step.

1. **Find**: On its own. Docs it can act on: llms.txt, an OpenAPI and an MCP server. (358 doc pages read)
2. **Get in**: On its own. MCP sign-in, sign-up in a browser. (3 minutes)
3. **Use**: On its own. Did: send errors, traces, logs, check-ins, profiles and session replays and read them back; create, rename and delete projects, client keys, releases, alerts, cron monitors and teams. (9 of 10 core tasks)
4. **Pay**: Reaches the checkout. Stopped at the $29 a month charge.
5. **Leave**: On its own. Nothing to cancel, deletes its account.

## Getting in

2 of 6 ways in worked without a person.

The way that worked: **Email and password**, 3 minutes. Needs an inbox and a browser. No person needed.

- Agent on a server (API, MCP, CLI): No. Stops at sign-up: it works only in a browser.
- Assistant in its own browser (Like ChatGPT agent): Partly. Signs up, confirms its email and does 9 of its 10 core tasks. Payment: reaches the checkout, stopped at the $29 a month charge.
- Signed agent (Known to Cloudflare): Yes. The sign-up page opens.

| Way in | What happened |
|---|---|
| Email and password | Worked |
| Sign-in for apps (OAuth, MCP) | Worked |
| Continue with GitHub | Not tried: Not part of this drive |
| Continue with Google | Not tried: Not part of this drive |
| Continue with Microsoft | Not tried: Not part of this drive |
| Company single sign-on | Not tried: Not part of this drive |

- Crawlers: **robots.txt asks crawlers to stay off sign-up and the API.** Nothing to fix. It keeps these pages out of search and doesn't stop agents signing up.
- Bot check: **reCAPTCHA (invisible) let our agent through at sign up.** Our agent signs every request (Web Bot Auth).

## What an agent can do with Sentry

9 of 10 core tasks done, and 14 of 15 others.

- Reliability: core tasks that worked on all 3 runs: 41 of 100
- Handles mistakes: clear errors, retries without duplicates, honest limits: 71 of 100
- Surface tested: documented routes, tools and commands run and checked: 69 of 100
- Docs accuracy: documented operations that behaved as the docs say: 91 of 100
- Docs completeness: how fully the docs describe each operation: 78 of 100

Core tasks:

| Task | Result | Done through | Tried, not done |
|---|---|---|---|
| Track errors as grouped issues | Done | API, MCP | – |
| Install the SDK and send events with a DSN | Done | API | – |
| Create a project | Done | API, MCP | – |
| Resolve, assign or ignore an issue | Done | API, MCP | – |
| Create an alert rule | Done | API, MCP | – |
| Trace requests and read performance data (tracing) | Done | API, MCP | – |
| Watch session replays | Done | API, MCP | – |
| Search structured logs | Done | API, MCP | – |
| Create and track a release | Done | API, MCP, CLI | – |
| Fix an issue with Seer AI | Blocked | – | MCP |

14 of 15 other tasks done:

- Monitor cron jobs and uptime: Done
- Profile code (profiling): Done
- Build a dashboard: Done
- Track LLM/agent traces: Done
- Upload source maps / debug files: Done
- Link a repo / GitHub integration: Done
- Save an issue view / search: Done
- Filter or drop events (inbound filters): Done
- Delete an issue or project: Done
- Create an auth token / API key: Done
- Invite a member: Done
- Create and manage teams: Done
- Register an integration-platform app: Done
- Control spend with quotas: Done
- Provision users with SCIM: Paid plan. Needs the Business plan with single sign-on.
- Receive webhooks for issues and alerts: Not tried

Paid-plan tasks don't count toward the level. The drive used the no-card trial (14-day Business trial, then free).

What it can't do, and why:

- Get Seer to fix an issue: It needs a GitHub or GitLab repository connected first.
- Create or revoke an API token without the web page: Tokens are made and revoked only in the web settings.
- Buy a plan by API or agent payment: Only a card checkout in the app; no billing API or payment rail.
- Provision users with SCIM: Needs the Business plan with single sign-on.

**Surface audit:** 390 documented operations, 290 run, 264 passed, 26 not as documented, 92 blocked (sandbox or plan limits), 8 left out to stay safe.

## How an agent connects

Agent surfaces: API tested · MCP tested · CLI tested · SDK tested · Docs tested · Agent payments none found. Issues found: 29.

- **MCP server**: 62 tested. Official server. 14 tools when driven + 54-tool catalog, 28 Jul 2026. It didn't answer when we asked for its tools on 1 Nov 2026. https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp GitHub lists it as a Copilot connector. [GitHub Docs, 2 Nov 2026](https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/reference/supported-connectors) (63 tools across its docs)
- **API**: 189 tested. REST v0, 273 operations in the OpenAPI. (273 operations across its docs)
- **OpenAPI**: Yes. 3.0.3, published in getsentry/sentry-api-schema.
- **CLI**: 22 tested. sentry-cli 3.8.2. (33 commands across its docs)
- **SDK**: All tested. @sentry/node 11.10.0. (11 methods across its docs)
- **llms.txt**: Yes. https://sentry.io/llms.txt
- **Agent payments**: None found. The checkout: Reached the card form and stopped: Team, $29 a month; Checkout: a Stripe card form; An invisible bot check loaded at checkout; Wallets: Link.
- **Docs**: In part. Covers getting started, auth and error codes. Code examples on only some pages. 10 of 11 documented ways to do the core work worked when tried. https://docs.sentry.io/ (358 of 12,489 pages read)

## Tips for agent builders

- Sign in to https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp first (CIMD works) and use search_sentry_tools + execute_sentry_tool to reach the 54 catalog tools (create_project, create_dsn, alert and monitor tools).
- Make one personal token in Settings > Personal Tokens with every scope you need, Team included; REST covers what MCP lacks (delete project/issue).
- Sentry groups errors by stack trace: set an SDK fingerprint to get one issue per test.
