## FAQ

### How do I connect the Sentry MCP server to Claude Code?

Install the Sentry CLI, log in with `sentry auth login`, then run `claude mcp add sentry -- sentry mcp`, or install it as a Claude Code plugin from the getsentry/sentry-mcp marketplace.

### What authentication does the Sentry MCP server use?

It supports OAuth for the remote service, or you can pass a Sentry user auth token via SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN or the Sentry-Bearer header. The CLI login can also supply credentials without a token.

### Do the AI-powered search tools need an LLM provider?

Yes. Tools like search_errors and search_traces require an OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, or OpenRouter key; other tools work without one.

### How can I limit which Sentry tools an agent sees?

Pass a skills list or disable skills via the `?skills=` / `?disable-skills=` URL params for remote, or the MCP_SKILLS and MCP_DISABLE_SKILLS environment variables for stdio.
