From Context to Commitment

If service-centric observability provides the control layer, the next question becomes more urgent. What happens when organizations pair context with automation that operates inside clear defined boundaries? During conversations at Nexus Live 2025, leaders did not describe automation as a futuristic aspiration. They described it as a necessary progression. However, the distinction they drew was important. Automation without context accelerates activity.

Moving On From MCP: How We Built the Bindplane AI Skill

If you've spent any time wiring AI coding agents into developer platforms over the last year, you've probably reached for MCP. We did too. And after enough sessions watching context windows balloon and tool calls misfire, we started looking for something different. This is the story of what we built instead — a native AI skill for the Bindplane CLI — and the engineering decisions behind it.

Bindplane Now Ships With a Native AI Skill - Bring Your Own Agent

Today we're rolling out the Bindplane AI Skill, a built-in capability of the Bindplane CLI (v1.98+) that teaches your favorite AI coding tool how to work with Bindplane — natively, accurately, and without the setup headaches of traditional integrations.

Is it throwing exceptions? Does it seem fast enough? These are great intuitive measurements, but just as a doctor uses diagnostics to catch high blood pressure before it becomes a crisis, you need deeper visibility to detect memory leaks, CPU spikes, and disk consumption before they bring your project to a halt.

How to monitor external SaaS service outages

Modern infrastructure is no longer just about what you build and run internally. Most DevOps and system administration teams rely on a growing number of external SaaS services, including cloud providers, monitoring tools, authentication systems, CI/CD platforms, communication tools, and more. When one of these services fails, your application may still look healthy internally, while users are already experiencing issues.

Sentry's integration with Perforce is now generally available

If you work in game development, VFX, or any industry dealing with large binary assets, chances are your codebase lives in Perforce P4. It’s the version control system behind some of the biggest games and creative projects in the world — and until now, it’s been one of the last major SCMs without first-class Sentry support. Today, we’re changing that. The Sentry + Perforce P4 integration is now generally available for all Sentry organizations.

Two commands to Sentry: now on Stripe Projects

Two commands. That’s how little it takes to go from nothing to a fully configured Sentry project with error monitoring, performance tracing, and session replay: Click to Copy No signup form. No email verification dance. No dashboard tab-switching to copy-paste a DSN into your.env. Your account is created, your project is provisioned, and five environment variables land in your working directory, ready for your SDK to pick up. And if you’re using a coding agent?
