How do I create a Sentry Internal Integration Token?

Go to your [**Sentry Organization Settings**](https://sentry.io/settings/), select **API Keys** > **Create New Integration**. Name it (e.g. 'Vinkius MCP'), select the scopes you need (recommended: `org:read`, `project:read`, `event:read`, `team:read`, `release:read`), and click **Save**. Copy the token immediately — it starts with `sntrys_` and won't be shown again.

Can I resolve or mute an issue directly from the agent?

Yes! Use the `update_issue` action with the issue's numeric ID and set `status` to `resolved` (marks it fixed), `muted` (hides it from the inbox) or `deleted` (removes it permanently). You can also reassign issues using the `assigned_to` parameter.

What Sentry query syntax does the search support?

Sentry uses its own query syntax. Common filters include: `is:unresolved` (open issues), `is:resolved` (fixed issues), `priority:[1-50]` (priority levels), `first_release:1.2.3` (issues introduced in a specific release), `user.email:example@co.com` (errors affecting a specific user). You can combine filters: `is:unresolved priority:50`.

Sentry Alternative + Claude Desktop FAQ

Common questions about integrating Sentry Alternative MCP Server with Claude Desktop.

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully — if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL — Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
