Sentry Axi

Agent-friendly TypeScript CLI for the Sentry MCP server. It exposes Sentry investigation and operation workflows as predictable shell commands with compact structured output, repository defaults, OAuth support, and explicit binary destinations.

Requirements

• Node.js 24 or newer
• A Sentry account with access to the target organization and projects

Install

Install the standalone CLI globally so sentry-axi is available on PATH:

npm install --global @nikolauska/sentry-axi
sentry-axi auth login

Session hooks are an explicit, optional integration:

sentry-axi setup hooks

The command idempotently installs or repairs user-level session-start hooks for Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode. Hooks resolve sentry-axi from PATH when it identifies the current executable and otherwise retain its absolute path.

As a lower-overhead alternative, install the static sentry-axi skill:

skills add nikolauska/sentry-axi --skill sentry-axi

Hooks provide ambient session context; the skill loads on demand. Install either integration or both after installing the standalone binary.

Quick start

# Inspect authentication and current repository context
sentry-axi

# Bind the current Git repository to a default Sentry project
sentry-axi init --organization acme --project web

# Investigate
sentry-axi issues search "unresolved errors"
sentry-axi issues view ISSUE_ID
sentry-axi traces view TRACE_ID
sentry-axi events search "count()" --fields count --dataset errors

# Download binary content only to an explicit path
sentry-axi attachments download EVENT_ID \
  --organization acme --project web --attachment-id ATTACHMENT_ID \
  --output artifact.bin

Run sentry-axi --help, sentry-axi <group> --help, or sentry-axi <group> <action> --help for focused usage. The CLI covers organizations, projects, teams, DSNs, issues, events, attachments, traces, replays, releases, dashboards, monitors, alerts, docs, profiles, resources, snapshots, conversations, and Sentry tool discovery.

Authentication and endpoint configuration

By default, sentry-axi connects to https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp and uses MCP OAuth. Login credentials are saved with mode 0600 under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/sentry-axi/oauth.json or ~/.config/sentry-axi/oauth.json.

sentry-axi auth login
sentry-axi auth login --manual
sentry-axi auth finish --code CODE
sentry-axi auth whoami
sentry-axi auth logout

Environment variables:

The two token variables are mutually exclusive. Scoped endpoints such as /mcp/<organization>/<project> constrain commands and reject conflicting flags or repository bindings.

Repository context and output

sentry-axi init validates the organization and project before writing .sentry-project at the Git root. Commands use those values when their flags are omitted. Pass --all-projects only on commands where project scope is optional.

Results are structured for agent consumption. Long strings are previewed at 1,500 characters; add --full for complete content or --select id,title to project fields. Attachments and snapshot images require --output <path> and never emit binary bytes to stdout.

Create and update commands are direct mutations. Agents should confirm their target unless the user already requested that exact action, and inspect the target before retrying after an uncertain transport failure.

Development

mise installs Node 24 and exposes the local workflow:

mise install
mise run setup
mise run check

The same checks are available through npm:

npm ci
npm run format       # Oxfmt
npm run lint         # Oxlint
npm run typecheck
npm run build         # Emit publishable JavaScript to dist/
npm test
npm run check

Development source runs directly as TypeScript. npm run build emits the JavaScript published from dist/. Update src/skill.ts or the command catalog, then run npm run build:skill and commit the generated skills/sentry-axi/SKILL.md. Run npm pack --dry-run to inspect the standalone package contents.
