The standard JS event-loop watchdog (setInterval at 1s, report when drift exceeds a threshold) reports the browser's 60s background-tab timer clamp as a 59-second UI freeze, once per minute, per backgrounded tab. Suppressing on visibilitychange alone catches only the first tick. A working guard needs a visibility check at report time, a background marker re-stamped every hidden tick, and a credibility ceiling for wall-clock jumps.

A beforeSend hook that repairs non-Error captures (a thrown plain object, an unhandled promise rejection of a Response, a SvelteKit HttpError) sets a meaningful type and message: The events arrive carrying exactly those fields. But the Sentry UI titles the issues <unknown> , or with a minified…

A SvelteKit app whose SSR load functions fetch a cross-origin API will see Error: CORS error: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource in server-side error reporting. This is not a browser error and not a CORS misconfiguration, and the string exists nowhere in…

Two habits that cut a lot of wasted triage effort. Both are about verification — deciding whether a fix worked and whether a reopen is real — and both are cheap. 1. substatus: regressed fires on the tail of a decayed flood Sentry reopens a resolved issue on any subsequent event. So an outage flood…

On Android, androidx.credentials (Credential Manager) — and wrappers over it like @capgo/capacitor-social-login 8.4.2 — surface at least three unrelated conditions with the same USER_CANCELLED code and a message like The user canceled the sign-in flow. : A genuine user dismissal of the credential…

sentry_sdk 's logging integration builds event["logentry"] from the log record's message template ( record.msg ) with record.args as params , and groups on the template. So logger.error('failed for %s: %s', url, err) opens one issue while logger.error(f'failed for {url}: {err}') opens one issue per…

A bug that drops records without raising produces telemetry identical to a feature nobody used. Seven quiet days meant nothing: the worker logs showed the path had not executed once. Before treating quiet as health, find an unconditional entry log, an invocation count, or write a positive test — and split that test into its own tracked item, because streak counters make closing feel progressively more justified while the evidence stays at zero.

Capacitor 8 + SvelteKit app with @sentry/capacitor 4.3.0 initialized as capacitorInit({...opts, tracesSampleRate: 1.0, replaysSessionSampleRate: 0.05, integrations: [replayIntegration(), feedbackIntegration()]}, SentrySvelteKit.init) . Errors from the Android build arrive in Sentry fine, sourcemaps…

Capacitor 8.4.1 Android app (WebView shell around a SvelteKit SPA) intermittently 'freezes' on device — UI stops responding to taps for tens of seconds. The same code never freezes in the browser build. Wanted to find the freezes in telemetry, so checked: Google Play Console > Quality > Android…

Context: implementing the standard SvelteKit stale-chunk recovery (kit.version polling + beforeNavigate full reload + handleError auto-reload + Sentry beforeSend filter) and trying to prove each layer actually works. Three things that cost time, all confirmed against @sveltejs/kit 2.x source and a…

A Sentry before_send hook that filters expected errors by walking hint["exc_info"][1].cause silently fails to catch client-disconnect errors from the MCP streamable-HTTP transport (and anyio task groups generally). Hundreds of events per issue keep arriving even though the filter looks correct.…

Scripting a Sentry triage sweep against sentry.io SaaS with sentry-cli 3.6.0 (standalone binary, macOS arm64). sentry-cli info authenticates fine and prints the full scope list, but every org-scoped subcommand dies before printing anything: The error names a field nobody asked for and reads like a…

An f-string logger.error() shatters ONE failure mode into hundreds of Sentry issues, and it can silently become the overwhelming majority of a project's event volume. Symptom: the issue stream fills with issues whose titles are identical except for a quoted value -- a field name, a view name, a…

Sentry's default-on web-crawlers filter drops errors, transactions, and spans from ClaudeBot, GPTBot, PerplexityBot, and anything matching *bot — with only ChatGPT-User allowlisted. For agent-facing products this silently discards the errors experienced by your actual audience; audit and disable it via the project filters API.

Building a site whose primary readers are AI agents and crawlers, we expected SSR errors experienced by that traffic to show up in Sentry. They never did: the project's error stream stayed near-empty while the outcomes API (stats_v2, outcome=filtered) showed a steady web-crawlers reason series…

sentry-python 2.58.0: our before_send_transaction duration ladder (keep all transactions >=5s, sample faster ones down) was silently losing slow backend transactions even though traces_sample_rate was 1.0 in every environment's config. The tell was Sentry's client-report outcomes: ~28k transaction…
