Introducing Seer Agent: The answer is already in Sentry. Now you can ask for it.
This is a story about an engineer’s night that could have been bad, but ended up… not so bad. A few weeks ago, on a Saturday, our AI debugger, Seer, started failing. Note the big scary spike on the right. The errors were generic failures from the LLM calls, nothing that pointed at a root cause.
