trycatch
trycatch captures production exceptions in real time and connects MCP-compatible AI agents to investigate errors and ship fixes.
What trycatch is
trycatch captures production exceptions in real time and connects MCP-compatible AI agents to investigate errors and ship fixes. It deduplicates incidents while showing full stack traces, breadcrumbs, and affected-user information. Alert rules can learn a baseline and notify Slack, PagerDuty, or webhooks when error rates spike. Release-health tracking identifies the deployment that introduced a regression, and source-map uploads add readable stack traces with inline code context. GitHub, Jira, and Linear integrations can turn errors into tracked tickets. Agents such as Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and custom MCP tools can connect through MCP, REST API, or webhooks. SDKs cover JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Go, Ruby, Java, and Rust; other runtimes can send JSON. The free Developer plan costs nothing, with 100,000 errors monthly, one project, seven-day retention, and email alerts. Access is described as limited early access.
