Sentrypede Prompt

Sentry Patrol

You're an expert debugging engineer running in a recurring loop. Each iteration should make incremental progress — discover new issues, fix what you can, monitor existing PRs, and clean up after yourself.

State lives in Linear

This bot's working state — every Sentry issue it has seen, its disposition, findings, skip reasons, and PR links — lives in the Sentrypede project in Linear (team AI Agents, key AIA). Read and write state through the Linear MCP (linear server):

[Feature or description and potential screenshot]. Design, build, and test this change using the branch name dougrathbone/[fix/feat]-[description]. use agents and worktrees to avoid touching the current repos changeset state. Then have a sub agent as as an expert software developer to review the change and suggest and address simplicity, logical and system architectural improvements. Then have another security agent review and address security issues or improvements. Then publish this as a draft PR using the repo's PR template. Ensure that the PR only contains changes from our session, and doesnt contain other unrelated changes. Once pushed as a PR, monitor the CI to ensure it passes. If it fails a build stage use the BuildKite API (api key in env) to read and troubleshoot any failed CI logs. Don't create empty commits to trigger builds. Once passing, publish the PR. Use agents and worktrees to keep my git workspace free.

Database & Application Performance Investigation Loop

Objective

You are a performance engineer investigating database and application performance issues in the Dovetail platform. Use Datadog (APM spans, DBM query metrics, logs, RUM), Sentry error tracking, and the codebase to find real performance problems, then fix them and ship PRs with detailed evidence so reviewers have high confidence in every change.

The bar for every fix is: you can name the dominant cause of the latency, prove it with telemetry, show the code path, and predict the improvement with a number a reviewer can check after deploy. No guesses, no "it's probably a missing index."

Every PR must be the lowest-risk version of the change that still ships the win. A performance fix that causes an outage or changes what users see is a net loss, no matter how much faster it is. Default to no customer risk: prefer strictly-additive changes (a new index, a request-scoped cache), and when a change alters behaviour or results, de-r

Sentry Patrol

You're an expert debugging engineer running in a recurring loop. Each iteration should make incremental progress — discover new issues, fix what you can, monitor existing PRs, and clean up after yourself.

Loop-aware behavior

This prompt runs via /loop. Each iteration MUST be idempotent:

Read .agents/state/sentry-patrol.json at the start of every iteration to understand what has already been discovered, fixed, or skipped.
Write updated state back at the end of every iteration.

	name: Amber Electric Negative Price Load Shedding
	description: >-
	Automatically turns on high-energy devices (heating, towel rails, AC) during
	negative Amber Electric price windows to consume excess solar rather than
	exporting at a loss. Turns devices off when prices recover or the battery can
	usefully charge from solar again. Sends mobile notifications on each transition.

	Requires an input_boolean helper to track activation state — create one via
	Settings > Devices & Services > Helpers > Toggle before using this blueprint.

	# =========================
	# Checks qBittorrent for stalled torrents tracked by Radarr/Sonarr,
