Perplexity

Debug production issues in Cursor

Stop working with stale logs. When you hit a performance wall, use `list_nodes` and `list_snapshots` to pull live data into your editor context. The AI sees the actual state of your infrastructure. It writes patches based on current transaction metrics rather than your outdated assumptions.

Automate health rule management in Cursor

Sync your monitoring rules with your codebase by using `export_health_rules` and `import_health_rules`. This ensures your alerts stay consistent across environments. You can keep these rules in your repository and apply them to the Controller via the AI. It keeps your infrastructure configuration as code.

Explore business transactions within Cursor

List your active business transactions with `list_business_transactions` to understand how your changes impact performance. The AI can verify if your new code matches the expected transaction flow. This removes the need to jump between the IDE and your browser. Everything you need to validate your logic sits right in your sidebar.
