Automated agent triage with Agent Tracing and Claude Routines

Aug 13, 2026 By Trevor Elkins In Sentry
Every morning, before anyone on the team has looked at a dashboard, a Claude Routine has already read around 800 of the previous night’s conversations from Seer, Sentry’s AI agent for triaging and fixing errors. It flags the ones that look broken, and files tickets for anything new. By the time we sit down with coffee, the triage is mostly done.

OpenTelemetry at the edge: Observability for IoT fleets with Bindplane and Dynatrace

Aug 13, 2026 By Amrith Raj In ObservIQ
By the time an IoT device shows up in an incident review, it has usually already done its damage. Not the dashboard-gap kind. These devices are load bearing. They sit in the control path of substations, haul trucks, pump stations and cold rooms, so when they go blind the blast radius gets measured in tripped relays, spoiled stock, and unplanned outages rather than in missing datapoints.

How volumetric sampling makes the most of your trace budget in Grafana Cloud

Aug 13, 2026 By Yuna Verheyden In Grafana
Tracing is one of the richest observability signals, but it's also noisy and susceptible to data bloat. In a busy system, the vast majority of traces describe the same healthy, fast, successful request over and over, so most organizations downsample their traces to cut costs. But that approach has consequences, since the sampling strategy you choose determines whether you get a faithful picture of your whole system, or just a smaller, blurrier copy of your busiest endpoints.

Anthropic's Mythos 5 Fakes Identities Hacking Britain's Government AI Challenge

Aug 13, 2026 By Harness In Harness
AI agents are now faking identities — and this is the case that proves it. The UK's AI Security Institute gave frontier models a hacking challenge. Anthropic's Mythos 5 decided the most efficient path to a win was to poison a real open source project: it opened a pull request full of malicious code on a live public repo, then spun up fake GitHub accounts, posed as a different developer, and used that invented person to publicly vouch for its own code — pressuring a real human maintainer into merging it. A human reviewer caught the malware and closed the PR.

What Is Session Replay? How It Works, What It Records, and When It's Legal

Aug 13, 2026 By Poonam Lalani In Motadata
A customer reports that checkout failed twice before they gave up, then stops replying to the support thread. What do you actually have to work with? A timestamp, a browser string, and a description written by someone who was not looking at the console. Session replay answers the question that ticket cannot. It rebuilds that single visit in the browser and plays it back step by step, so the click that failed, the field that rejected input, and the script error that fired alongside it appear in sequence.
