Lightrun Runtime Context MCP | Lightrun

In this video, Lightrun's Moshe Sambol walks you through the power of Lightrun MCP and Runtime Context. A game-changer for AI-assisted development. This integration lets developers debug live issues, inspect real-world variables, and verify fixes across environments, all without leaving the IDE. With Lightrun MCP, you can: Capture live transaction state directly from Staging and Production. Identify root causes using real runtime values, not just static code. Verify fixes instantly without redeploying or context switching.

What is Runtime Context? A Practical Definition for the AI Era

TLDR: Runtime Context is live, execution-level access to a running production system. It lets engineers and AI agents ask precise questions of running code and get answers immediately, without redeploying or interrupting users. This is the new baseline for reliability.

Lightrun MCP: Your AI Assistant Now Debugs and Validates Production Code

Intermittent production bugs are hard to debug and rarely reproduce locally. Teams fall into a loop of adding logs, and every rollback slows them down. In this demo, R&D team leads Maor Yaffe and Or Golan show how an AI assistant can verify production issues using real runtime data, without redeploying. By connecting Cursor to Lightrun MCP, the agent inspects live production behavior, collects real variable values, and confirms the root cause with evidence instead of assumptions.

How to Ensure AI-Generated Code is Reliable with Runtime Context

TLDR: AI coding assistants have sped up code delivery, but created a validation gap. Historic telemetry and static analysis cannot predict the behavior of unfamiliar, high-volume code. Lightrun’s Runtime Context MCP closes that gap, allowing AI assistants to verify behavior before it breaks, and resolve issues in real time.
