Review a Django change before merging
Ask for a review of permissions or database performance. The specialist skills investigate whether users can reach another user’s data and whether queries introduce performance problems.
Overview
Sentry Skills packages agent instructions for Sentry employees, covering engineering reviews, GitHub workflows, technical writing and project documentation. In Claude Code, relevant skills can activate automatically; you can also select invocable skills from the slash-command menu. The plugin bundles subagents for code simplification and technical mentoring for new Sentry hires. Their setup and starting prompts are in Components.
For adding Sentry to your application or investigating production issues, use Sentry for AI.
Use Cases
Prepare a pull request for review
Create a branch, commit a coherent change and write a PR description using Sentry’s conventions. For an existing PR, iterate-pr addresses actionable CI failures and high- or medium-priority feedback, then reports remaining human approval gates. PR writing requires authenticated GitHub CLI access; iterate-pr also needs uv.
Turn a proposal into readable documentation
Use doc-coauthoring to gather context, refine the document section by section and test whether a reader unfamiliar with the discussion can understand it.
Keep repository instructions useful
Use agents-md to create concise AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md instructions backed by the repository’s actual commands and documentation. Use claude-settings-audit when you also need recommended Claude Code permissions for read-only commands.
Clear noise from Sentry’s frontend queue
With authenticated Sentry MCP access, review unresolved issues in sentry/javascript and approve an archive plan. The triage skill archives approved noise with untilEscalating so it can return if it escalates; potentially actionable or uncertain issues are skipped.
Gather evidence for annual R&D reporting
Collect a year’s pull requests, Notion documents and Linear tickets into a private Notion work summary, then organize the projects and supporting evidence for SRED submission. These workflows need access to GitHub and MCP connections to Notion and Linear.

Agents
2code-simplifier
Refine code for clarity and maintainability while preserving its functionality.
Simplify recent changes
In Claude Code, install the whole plugin using the Claude Code marketplace method in Install, then restart Claude Code. The Skills CLI method does not install this subagent.
Ask Claude Code to use code-simplifier on your recent edits. Give a broader scope explicitly if needed: its instructions focus on code modified in the current session and call for proactive refinement while preserving functionality.
senpai
Explain Sentry infrastructure and architecture to new hires with step-by-step references.
Ask about Sentry’s architecture
In Claude Code, install the whole plugin using the Claude Code marketplace method in Install, then restart Claude Code. The Skills CLI method does not install this subagent.
Ask an onboarding question, such as how Sentry’s event ingestion pipeline works, and request senpai for the explanation. Its instructions call for researching current documentation and code before teaching, then explaining the topic step by step with references.
Install
Add Sentry’s marketplace, then install its sentry-skills plugin to get the skills and subagents together in Claude Code. Skills CLI installs skills only; it does not install the bundled subagents or other plugin components.
Claude Code
Install the whole sentry-skills plugin in Claude Code, including its skills and subagents.
- 01
In a terminal with Claude Code available, add Sentry’s marketplace.
claude plugin marketplace add getsentry/skills - 02
Install sentry-skills from that marketplace.
claude plugin install sentry-skills@sentry-skills - 03
Restart Claude Code to load the installed plugin.
- 04
In Claude Code’s chat input, type a forward slash and look for skills with the sentry-skills prefix. Open the plugin manager and confirm that sentry-skills appears under Installed.
/plugin
Skills CLI installs skills only. For the bundled subagents, choose the Claude Code marketplace method.
- 05
From your project directory, run the Skills CLI installer in a terminal where npx is available. This command targets Claude Code and uses the project’s
.claude/skills/directory.Sentry’s install command + Skills CLI’s agent optionnpx skills add getsentry/skills -a claude-code - 06
Complete the installer, then start a new Claude Code session in the project.
- 07
Check the slash-command menu for the installed skills.
Skills CLI installs Sentry’s skills without the bundled subagents.
- 05
From your project directory, run the Skills CLI installer in a terminal where npx is available. This command targets Cursor and uses the project’s
.agents/skills/directory.Sentry’s install command + Skills CLI’s agent optionnpx skills add getsentry/skills -a cursor - 06
Complete the installer, then restart Cursor so it discovers the skills.
- 07
In Agent chat, type a forward slash and search for an installed skill by name.
