On-Call Runbook Gap Closer: Resolved Sentry Issues to Doc PRs

An agent reads each newly resolved Sentry issue, compares the actual fix against your existing runbook, and opens a GitHub PR adding the missing remediation steps.

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerSentry issue marked resolvedSentrySentry
  • ActionFetch issue detail, resolving commit, and commentsSentrySentry
  • ActionSearch runbook repo for matching error coverageGitHubGitHub
  • LogicSkip if runbook already documents this failure
  • ActionAgent drafts missing remediation steps
  • ActionOpen doc PR with new runbook sectionGitHubGitHub
  • OutputPost PR link to Slack, tag the resolverSlack

What it does

Every time an on-call engineer resolves a Sentry issue, this agent inspects how it was fixed and checks whether your runbook already documents that failure mode. If the steps are missing or stale, it drafts the new section and opens a GitHub pull request against your docs repo, then pings the resolver in Slack to review.

When to use it

Use it when tribal knowledge keeps walking out the door — incidents get resolved in chat, but the runbook never catches up, so the same alert pages a fresh engineer at 3am. Best for teams running Sentry alerting against a Git-versioned docs repo.

How it works

  1. 1Sentry fires when an issue transitions to resolved.
  2. 2The agent pulls the issue: stack trace, breadcrumbs, resolving commit, and any comments explaining the fix.
  3. 3It searches the runbook in the GitHub repo for an existing section covering this error signature.
  4. 4If coverage exists and is accurate, it stops. Otherwise it drafts a remediation section grounded in the actual fix.
  5. 5It opens a PR with the new or updated runbook content.
  6. 6It posts the PR link to Slack, tagging the engineer who resolved the issue for review.
