## What it does

The skill inspects project files like `package.json`, `requirements.txt`, or `composer.json` using grep. It detects SDKs for OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, Google GenAI, Vercel AI, and Laravel AI, then configures matching Sentry instrumentation. AI monitoring requires tracing enabled via `tracesSampleRate`.

Prompt and completion logging risks leaking user PII into Sentry dashboards. In JavaScript, input and output collection is active by default under `dataCollection.genAI`, whereas Python and Laravel require setting PII flags explicitly. The skill asks for confirmation before keeping prompts enabled so privacy policies stay respected.

Runtime limitations apply in Cloudflare Workers because `workerd` does not support monkey-patching. Node.js auto-instrumentation will fail there, requiring manual client wrapping or the build-time Vite plugin.

## Requirements
- Works with: Sentry

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add getsentry/sentry-for-ai --skill sentry-setup-ai-monitoring -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add getsentry/sentry-for-ai --skill sentry-setup-ai-monitoring -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add getsentry/sentry-for-ai --skill sentry-setup-ai-monitoring -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install getsentry/sentry-for-ai sentry-setup-ai-monitoring
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add getsentry/sentry-for-ai --skill sentry-setup-ai-monitoring -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-for-ai --path skills-legacy/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add getsentry/sentry-for-ai --skill sentry-setup-ai-monitoring -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-for-ai/tree/HEAD/skills-legacy/sentry-setup-ai-monitoring/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- trace LLM requests and agent spans in Node.js, Python, and Laravel
- measure token usage and model response latency
- link multi-turn chat sessions with gen_ai.conversation.id
- configure sample rates so AI transaction trees are not dropped

## Example prompts
- Set up Sentry AI agent monitoring for our OpenAI calls
- Instrument our LangChain agent with Sentry tracing
- Configure Sentry AI observability and check our sample rate

# Setup Sentry AI Agent Monitoring

Configure Sentry to track LLM calls, agent executions, tool usage, and token consumption.

## Invoke This Skill When

- User asks to "monitor AI/LLM calls" or "track OpenAI/Anthropic usage"
- User wants "AI observability" or "agent monitoring"
- User asks about token usage, model latency, or AI costs

**Important:** The SDK versions, API names, and code samples below are examples. Always verify against [docs.sentry.io](https://docs.sentry.io) before implementing, as APIs and minimum versions may have changed.

## Prerequisites

AI monitoring requires **tracing enabled** (`tracesSampleRate > 0`).

If the app has multi-turn chats, set a conversation ID by default anywhere it makes sense to identify a chat session. Sentry uses `gen_ai.conversation.id` to group related AI spans into Conversations. Some integrations infer it automatically, but many setups need to set it explicitly.

## Data Capture Warning

**Prompt and output recording captures user content that is likely PII.** In JavaScript, genAI input/output capture is **on by default** (governed by `dataCollection.genAI`); in Python it is enabled via `send_default_pii=True`; in Laravel it is enabled via `SENTRY_SEND_DEFAULT_PII=true`. Before relying on this capture (or per-integration overrides — `recordInputs`/`recordOutputs` in JS, `include_prompts` in Python), confirm:

- The application's privacy policy permits capturing user prompts and model responses
- Captured data complies with applicable regulations (GDPR, CCPA, etc.)
- Sentry data retention settings are appropriate for the sensitivity of the data

**Ask the user** whether they want prompt/output capture enabled. Do not enable prompt/output capture without explicit confirmation. Use `tracesSampleRate: 1.0` only in development; in production, use a lower value or a `tracesSampler` function.

## Detection First

**Always detect installed AI SDKs before configuring:**

```bash
# JavaScript
grep -E '"(openai|@anthropic-ai/sdk|ai|@langchain|@google/genai)"' package.json

# Python
````
