Open draft fix PRs when alerts fire
A developer built a Grok Bot agent that watches Sentry and logs, then creates pull requests across several repositories when specific alerts appear.
- What they did
- Patrick Altman spent about a day setting up a Grok Bot agent named Sentinel. It keeps an eye on Sentry and selected logs, and when certain conditions show up, it opens pull requests in multiple repositories. The goal is to turn detected issues into proposed fixes automatically.
- How it went
- There were no results or performance figures shared. Altman said the project was still at an early stage, so it was not yet clear how well the suggested fixes would work.
- Tips
- If you try this, start with a narrow set of alerts and one or two repositories. Make the agent pause for human review before any PR is finalized or sent for merge.
Try it yourself with Grok Bot
Watch [Sentry project] and [log source] for events that match [trigger rules]. When one appears, inspect the likely source in [repository list], prepare a draft pull request with a proposed fix and short explanation, then stop and ask me to review before you create, submit, merge, or send anything. After that, post the PR link to [Slack channel].
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
