Connect Unleash to your agent to pull real-time feature states and user segments. It turns manual debugging into a quick conversation.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

Why isn't my feature flag working for this user?

Your agent pulls the specific feature set for a user and compares it against the expected rollout rules. You'll see exactly what is active and why targeting might be failing.

The outcomes

What you get from the AI

The agent handles the data fetching so you can focus on the logic.

STATE

Active flag status

The agent pulls the current feature set for a specific user. You see exactly what is turned on right now.

AUDIT

User segment check

The agent looks up user details to see if they fall into the right bucket. This catches targeting errors instantly.

DIFF

Frontend vs Backend

The agent compares client-side and server-side feature states. This helps find mismatches between your API and the UI.

HUMAN

Manual flag updates

The agent cannot change flag settings or toggle features. You still need to go into the Unleash dashboard to make actual changes.

The workflow

What your AI does when a rollout issue arrives.

The agent acts as a bridge between your debugging questions and the Unleash data.

  1. Identify the user

    The agent finds the specific user profile you are investigating to get their context.

    list_users

  2. Check client state

    The agent pulls the feature flags currently active on the client side.

    get_client_features

  3. Verify frontend state

    The agent checks the frontend feature set to ensure the UI matches the backend expectations.

    get_frontend_features

  4. Report the mismatch

    The agent compares the gathered data and tells you why a flag is missing or active for a specific user.

    get_client_featuresget_frontend_features

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI turn a feature flag on or off?

    No. The agent can only read the current state of your flags. You must use the Unleash UI to change them.

  • 02

    Can the AI create new users in my system?

    No. The agent can only list existing users to check their feature assignments.

  • 03

    How does the AI know which user I am talking about?

    You provide the user ID or email in your prompt, and the agent uses that to look up the specific context.

  • 04

    Does the AI see all my feature flags?

    Yes, it can access the feature sets for both the client and the frontend as defined in the toolset.

  • 05

    Can the AI fix a broken rollout automatically?

    No. It can identify the discrepancy, but it cannot modify your configuration or code.
