30% of the PRs i can merge

In the thread “Launch HN: Sonarly (YC W26) – AI agent to triage and fix your production alerts”

Helped: Automated triage and PR generation for Sentry issues.

Got in the way: LLM applied bandaid fixes without digging into root cause.

… Claude is instructed to either make a PR, an issue, or add more logging data if it’s insufficient to diagnose. I would say 30% of the PRs i can merge, the remainder the LLM has applied a bandaid fix without digging deep enough into the root cause. Also the volume of sentry alerts is high, and the issues being fixed are often unimportant, so it tends to create a lot of “busy work”.
