Sentry Python Sdk

This is a comprehensive wizard for setting up Sentry in Python projects. It detects your framework (Django, Flask, FastAPI, Celery, etc.), scans for AI libraries like OpenAI or LangChain, then walks you through a complete configuration covering error monitoring, tracing, profiling, logging, and cron monitoring. The opinionated approach means it recommends specific sample rates and init locations rather than asking you to figure it out. Useful when you need full observability fast and don't want to piece together docs for every integration. The detection phase is smart enough to spot task queues and companion frontends, so it configures multi-process setups correctly. Best for greenfield setup or migrating from basic error tracking to full instrumentation.

Opinionated wizard that scans your Python project and guides you through complete Sentry setup.

Invoke This Skill When

User asks to "add Sentry to Python" or "setup Sentry" in a Python app
User wants error monitoring, tracing, profiling, logging, metrics, or crons in Python
User mentions sentry-sdk, sentry_sdk, or Sentry + any Python framework
User wants to monitor Django views, Flask routes, FastAPI endpoints, Celery tasks, or scheduled jobs

Note: SDK versions and APIs below reflect Sentry docs at time of writing (sentry-sdk 2.x). Always verify against docs.sentry.io/platforms/python/ before implementing.

Phase 1: Detect

Run these commands to understand the project before making recommendations:

# Check existing Sentry
grep -i sentry requirements.txt pyproject.toml setup.cfg setup.py 2>/dev/null

# Detect web framework
grep -rE "django|flask|fastapi|starlette|aiohttp|tornado|quart|falcon|sanic|bottle" \
  requirements.txt pyproject.toml 2>/dev/null

# Detect task queues
grep -rE "celery|rq|huey|arq|dramatiq" requirements.txt pyproject.toml 2>/dev/null
