How Mezmo Uses Active Telemetry for Faster AI Root Cause Analysis

AI-powered root cause analysis only works when the data going into the model is clean, relevant, and structured. In this demo, we show how Mezmo's Active Telemetry approach helps engineers and SREs move from noisy application errors to immediate clarity. Using a restaurant ordering application running in Kubernetes, we trigger a database connection pool exhaustion issue and walk through two ways to investigate it with Mezmo.

LiveTail: Real-Time Visibility for Active Telemetry

See how Mezmo LiveTail helps teams move from passive log search to active, real-time investigation. In this demo, you'll watch live telemetry stream across services and environments, identify emerging issues as they happen, and use real-time context to troubleshoot faster before signals are delayed, buried, or lost in the noise. LiveTail is part of Mezmo's Active Telemetry platform — built for platform engineers and SREs who need immediate visibility into what's happening across their stack right now, not after the fact.

Connecting Agents for Real-Time Root Cause Analysis with Checkly's Rocky AI

Rocky, Checkly's AI agent, monitors production sites and provides an analysis for every failing check. Previously, a coding agent couldn't access this analysis, leaving incidents and agents disconnected. Now, you can access all the analyses via the Checkly CLI (or API) and tell your coding agent, "Hey, I got a Checkly alert. Please investigate!" With Rocky's structured analysis delivered inline, the coding agent can start with a strong hypothesis, fix issues, and propose a PR in one session.

From Vibes to Signals: Observing Your AI Coding Workflow

Agentic coding tools like Claude Code and Codex have taken centre stage and inserted themselves into the critical path of software development. This shift has happened fast, and for most teams, the visibility hasn’t caught up. Until now we’ve been evaluating our vibe coding the same way – on vibes. You might say “this feels faster” or “that seems like a better approach”. That’s not going to scale.

Sentry + Stripe Projects: From Zero to Error Monitoring in Two Commands

No signup form. No dashboard. No copy-pasting DSNs. Sentry is now a provider on Stripe Projects, which means you can provision a fully configured Sentry project — error monitoring, tracing, and session replay — straight from the CLI in two commands. In this demo, we walk through the full workflow: initializing a project, provisioning Sentry, upgrading and downgrading plans, using magic login to jump straight into your dashboard, and letting a coding agent (Claude Code) handle it all for you.

New in the Honeycomb Academy: Learn to Use the Honeycomb MCP

Two things happen when engineers first connect the Honeycomb MCP to their AI assistant. The first is the blank page problem. The Honeycomb UI gives you something to react to: a heatmap, a query builder, a trace to click into. An AI assistant gives you a cursor and nothing else. When you don't know where to start, that's a hard place to be. The second shows up right after you get past the first one. You ask a question, you get a confident-sounding answer, and you're not sure whether to trust it.

Two AI agents, one incident: Rocky AI comes to the terminal

A Playwright Check fails at 2 am. The login flow is broken. Until today, that alert triggered a human to get up, open the Checkly dashboard, copy Rocky AI root cause analysis (RCA), and then tell an agent to get to work. There were two AI agents, one incident, and no way for them to talk to each other. The extended checkly checks and new checkly rca CLI commands close that gap. Your coding agent can now pull Rocky AI's analysis into its ongoing work, read the diagnosis, and go fix the code.
